Information obtained during the independent, fee waiver verification process indicating that the student does not meet free lunch or breakfast eligibility guidelines may be used to deny the waiver of the student's fees, provided that any information obtained through this independent process for determining or verifying eligibility for fee waivers shall not be used to determine or verify eligibility for any federally funded, school-based child nutrition program.

Cellular radio telecommunication devices.(a) The General Assembly finds and declares that the educational  development of  all persons to the limits of their capacities is a fundamental goal of the  people of this State and that to achieve such goal it is essential to provide a  safe and secure learning environment within the public schools. While  recognizing that cellular radio telecommunication devices may be used for  inappropriate activities during school hours and on school property and may, on  occasion, cause disruption to the classroom environment, the General Assembly  also recognizes that the use of cellular radio telecommunication devices can  decrease the response time of officials to emergency situations. In addition,  cellular radio telecommunication devices allow parents an additional and timely  method of contacting their children should an emergency situation arise.  Therefore, it is the purpose and intention of the General Assembly in enacting  this legislation to (i) reduce the occurrence of inappropriate and disruptive  activities during school hours and on school property occurring through the use  of cellular radio telecommunication devices and (ii) increase the safety of  students and school personnel during school hours and on school property.(b) The school board may establish appropriate rules and  disciplinary procedures governing the use or possession of cellular radio  telecommunication devices by a student while in a school or on school property,  during regular school hours, or at any other time.
