From Policy to Practice: Leading Your School Through Michigan’s New Cell Phone Legislation

In this timely webinar, Nina Davis, Associate Director of Engagement & Member Services, and Bob Kefgen, Associate Director of Government Relations, guided school leaders through Michigan’s new wireless communication device legislation and the leadership considerations surrounding implementation. The session clarified statutory requirements, policy boundaries, and key exemptions while emphasizing an important distinction: the law sets expectations, but leadership shapes student experience.

Nina and Bob were joined by a panel of MASSP member leaders who shared real-world reflections on decision-making, stakeholder engagement, and the ongoing work of fostering meaningful student presence. Together, the presenters reframed the conversation beyond enforcement, encouraging principals to view this moment as an opportunity to intentionally design stronger engagement, alignment, and culture within their schools.
