Yondr Pouches!!
If a student damages their pouch to a point where it does not lock or cannot secure the phone properly, they will have pay a $15 dollar fee to have it replaced.

If a student does not pay for the replacement, their phone will be collected each day.

There will be random pouch checks by the deans and staff to ensure the condition of the pouch is acceptable.

Parents will be informed by the dean’s office or a teacher if a student has a damaged pouch.

Please encourage your child to keep the pouch in good condition and to report any issues with the locking mechanism.
