Cellphone and Electronics Policy

  • KCAPA has a no cell phone policy. Cell phones are not permitted unless they are in a Yondr Pouch. We will not hold cell phones or other prohibited electronic devices for students.
  • One cell phone per pouch. No exceptions.
  • EarBuds must go into the Yondr Pouch alongside the cell phone.
  • Student cell phones must remain turned off and in the Yondr Pouch throughout the day. Failure to do so will result in a loss of the Yondr Pouch privilege.
  • Yondr Pouches are available for purchase for $30 each. Students are also responsible for bringing their pouches to and from school daily. Loaner Yondr pouches are not available.
  • Upon entry, each student’s Yondr pouch will be checked for tampering and confiscated if it is unable to close properly. No exceptions will be made. A replacement pouch will need to be purchased.
  • Per School District of Philadelphia policy, other electronic devices (i.e., personal laptops, tablets, etc.) are not permitted.
  • Kensington CAPA HS and the School District of Philadelphia are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged electronic devices.
