Dear Sage Families,

We will be making our school a phone-free space to improve teaching and learning using a system called Yondr beginning February 26th. Yondr has been implemented in over 2,000 schools across 16 countries to facilitate an engaged learning environment. 

We believe that phones have great utility. We have also found that learning and social behavior improve drastically when students are fully engaged with their teachers and classmates.

The Yondr Program utilizes a simple, secure pouch that stores a phone. Every student will secure their phone in a personally assigned Yondr pouch when they arrive at school. Students will maintain possession of their phones and will not use them until their pouches are opened at the end of the school day. Students are required to bring their Yondr pouch to and from school each day and are responsible for their pouch at all times. 

We received responses to our annual surveys from over 1,200 school partners, and after implementing the Yondr Education Program:

• 84% saw a change in student engagement

• 72% saw a positive change in student behavior
• 68% saw a positive change in academic performance

Of our most recent impact survey of over 370 of our school partners:

• 86% saw a positive impact in student safety and wellness
