Student Cell Phone Policy

Clairbourn is a phone-free space designed to improve teaching and learning.

Students in preschool through fifth grade may not
bring any personal electronic devices to school,
including, but not limited to, games, smartwatches,
tablet computers, laptop computers, wireless
headphones, e-readers, and cell phones.
 
 
Middle School Cell Phone Policy:
Students may bring a cell phone to school, but it must be locked in a Yondr pouch during the school day.
 
Yondr has been implemented in over 1,000 schools across 21 countries to create an engaged learning environment. It utilizes a simple, secure pouch that stores a phone.
 
Every middle school student will secure their phone in a personally assigned Yondr pouch when they arrive at school each day. Students will maintain possession of their phones but may not access them until their pouches are opened at the end of the school day. Students are responsible for their Yondr pouches during the school day.
 
If there is an emergency or your child needs time-sensitive information, please call Clairbourn directly at (626) 286-3108.
 
In an effort to best serve our students, we appreciate your full support of Clairbourn's cell phone policy and the adoption of the Yondr program at our school. If you have any questions, please contact the Assistant Head of School, Mrs. Taylor.
 
For more information about student engagement and the positive impact on student wellness, please read End the Phone-Based Childhood Now.
