As a follow-up to our Family/Caregiver Forum on August 19, we want to ensure all families are fully informed about the new statewide policy change regarding personal internet-enabled devices.

In alignment with this statewide mandate and following the Board of Education’s approval of our updated personal device policy, Harpursville CSD will be implementing the use of Yondr Bags for all students in grades 7–12 beginning in the 2025–26 school year.

Elementary students, as in past years, will not be permitted to have smartphones or other internet-enabled personal devices during the school day.

If you were unable to attend the August 19 forum, we encourage you to review the presentation that was shared during the event. This resource provides a detailed overview of the process and procedures that will be in place this year.

The updated personal device policy is also available here.
