YONDR Program

Phone-Free Space

Creating a focused, distraction-free environment for learning and social connection using Yondr.

Our Approach

Why We Are Phone-Free.

We believe phones in the classroom are a distraction to learning and social development. By removing phones from the school day, we create space for students to engage more deeply with their studies and with each other.

01

Arrival

Upon entering school, students turn off their phone and place it inside their Yondr pouch.

02

Lock

Students lock their pouch and keep it with them throughout the day. The phone is safe, but inaccessible.

03

Unlock

At dismissal, students tap their pouch on an unlocking base to access their phone as they leave.
