At Yale Public Schools, we believe in creating a learning environment where students are focused, connected, and ready to succeed. To support this vision, and in response to Senate Bill 139, which prohibits students from using personal electronic devices during the school day, YPS adopted policy FNG on June 9, 2025. This is a district-wide policy that prohibits students from using any personal electronics device between 7:40 AM and 2:50 PM.
Starting with the 2025-2026 school year, all students are expected to keep all personal electronic devices turned off and out of sight during the school day. This includes:
Cell phones
Smartwatches/smart glasses
Earbuds/headphones
iPods or other streaming devices
Any device that connects to the internet or cell network
Students can bring devices to school at their own risk, but usage is only allowed before or after school hours. During the school day, students who need to contact a parent/guardian may request to use an office phone. Likewise, families needing to contact a student should call the school office.
Thank you for your cooperation.
