Teacher suspended for blocking students' cellphones
LAND O' LAKES, Fla. --The act of a science teacher in Florida using a signal jammers to prevent his students from using their cellphones during class has resulted in his suspension.
WTSP-TV, the CBS Tampa affiliate, highlighted Dean Liptak's efforts to engage students in their lessons by diverting their attention away from their phones.
Liptak's five-day, unpaid suspension was officially sanctioned by the school board members in Pasco County on Tuesday. Liptak did not raise any objections to the decision.
According to officials, Liptak utilized the phone jammer in his Fivay High School classroom, commencing on March 31 and concluding on April 2.
In his conversation with the school district investigator, he made it clear that he had no intention of causing any disruptions. He explained that he believed the jammers were permissible as long as they were not intended for any malicious purposes.
According to WTSP, the district has acknowledged that Verizon made the choice not to pursue charges against him.
Superintendent Kurt Browning conveyed his concerns in a reprimand letter, pointing out that Liptak's actions of signal jamming had the potential to violate federal law and create interference for individuals attempting to contact 911 during emergencies.
"Verizon had come to the school saying someone had a jamming device, because the cell phone service was being interrupted in the area," WTSP quotew Pasco County School District spokesperson Linda Cobbe as saying.
It has been stated by Cobbe that Liptak's jamming device effectively hindered communication to the cell tower situated on the Fivay High campus.
