Reducing phone use in schools is essential for minimizing digital distractions and making space for stronger and more meaningful in-person connections. This policy isn't only about classroom instruction; it's about protecting the mental health and social and emotional well-being of our students at Monterey High School.
- During class time, phones need to be in a phone caddy or left at home.
