No decision was made Tuesday on whether Sarasota schools will ban cell phones.
The school board met earlier and decided a final presentation would be made on Feb. 5.
Superintendent Laura Kingsley said the delay will give administrators more time to look at data before coming to a decision that would impact everyone.
Kingsley says phones can be used as learning tools, but they can also be a temptation for students to do things they aren't supposed to while at school.
Parents can weigh in on the proposed ban by emailing the district.
