What Does It Mean to Be a Certified Phone-Free School?
A certified Phone-Free School secures all personal devices from bell to bell. No phones in pockets, no smartwatches buzzing, no earbuds during passing periods. Devices are stored in a designated, inaccessible location for the entire school day. Families can still reach students through the front office at any time.
All-Day Coverage
Devices are secured from first bell to last; in class, at lunch, and between periods.
Truly Out of Reach
Phones go in a designated, inaccessible location all day. Pockets don't count.
Every Student, Every Room
Every student, every classroom, every day, with clear, fair consequences.
Families Stay Connected
Families reach students through the front office. Emergency plans are documented.
Staff Buy-In
All staff understand, support, and consistently enforce the policy.
Students Understand Why
Students know why the policy exists and what's expected.
