On September 3, 2025, Port Chester schools implemented New York State’s new bell-to-bell cell phone ban to support student focus and engagement throughout the school day.

To help families better understand this change, we’ve created two resources:

NO CELL

- Cell Phone Policy FAQs – A detailed guide with answers to common questions, exceptions, and parent resources

- At-a-Glance Flyer – A quick reference with key highlights, the “ladder of consequences,” and QR code access to the full FAQ.

We appreciate the partnership of our students, families, and staff as we work together to create a respectful, focused, and supportive learning environment.
