In the survey, conducted in the spring of 2011, 53 percent of high school students said they had recently talked on a cell phone and 51 percent said they had emailed or sent a text message. The state study surveyed 2,058 public high school students.
A national study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, also released Thursday, found 58 percent of teens across America acknowledged engaging in that behavior.
