We are committing to our Cell Phone Free School Day policy again for the 2025-2026 school year. Listed below is our complete Cell Phone Free School Day Policy as an attachment. Please review and reference this document. Returning students will be required to bring in their Yondr pouch from 2024-2025 school year or will be issued a new one for a $50 replacement fee. New students (freshmen and transfers) will be issued a Yondr pouch at no charge during their Final Registration process.
We are resetting the expectations for student cell phone use during the day and prohibiting the use of cell phones and subsequently connected devices including smartwatches, wireless earbuds and headphones, and other electronic communication devices during the school day. From 8:00 am – 3:15 pm, students will be expected to keep their cell phones turned off and put away, at all times and in all spaces, using a program called Yondr.
Students will be able to access their CLHS-provided email accounts and parents can also contact the school office to connect with their student’s during the day. Students may also come to the front office if they need to make a phone call. Teachers will continue utilizing Google Classroom and email communications to connect with students and families and will be adapting classroom practices and procedures to align with a Cell Phone Free School Day.
Finally, in an emergency, as has always been the case, all communication will come through official school channels. Safety continues to be a top priority, and we appreciate the trust you extend to us to care for your students.
