Dear Connect High School Families,

In alignment with the Assembly Bill 3216 – “Phone-Free School Act”, all California schools are required to develop policies limiting student smartphone use by July 1, 2026.
At Connect High School, we are implementing our Electronic Devices/Cell Phone Policy this school year to support student learning, increase engagement, and ensure a safe learning environment.  As this is a change for all of us within the Connect school community we are beginning with a schoolwide slow roll out beginning August 18th.

What does this mean for students beginning August 18th:

• At the start of each class period, students will be asked to place their phone in designated classroom pockets and take an assigned numbered card.

• Phones will remain in the pockets for the duration of instructional time (entire class period) and students will collect their phone at the end of the period.

• Students will be asked to put their phone away in the cell phone pockets (and leave them there) until the end of the class period
  
  
• Earbuds and other personal devices will not be used during class — students have Chromebooks for academic work.

• If a student does not bring a cell phone they will still have an assigned number so the routine stays consistent for everyone.

• If students are seen with a device during instructional time, starting September 4th, the phone will be collected and given to school administration.

We believe this policy will help minimize distractions, keep students focused on learning, and promote a more engaged school community.  A detailed outline of the policy will be sent home prior to September 4th.

Thank you for your support in reinforcing these expectations at home.

Sincerely,
Tami Christopher
Principal, Connect High School

Assistant Principal, Connect High School
