LOS ANGELES—Students in the Los Angeles Unified School District returned to classes Feb. 18 with a major new rule in place—a ban on cell phones in classrooms.

The district’s board passed a resolution in June in a 5–2 vote calling for a prohibition on students’ use of cell phones and social media through the entire school day.
