We wanted to provide an update regarding Esteem Academy's cell phone policy for the 2026-27 school year. Beginning on 8/11/2026, Esteem Academy will become a cell phone free campus. Once students arrive on campus, they will turn in their phone to a designated staff member in the cafeteria as they arrive to campus. If students arrive to campus after breakfast, they will turn in their phone to the designated staff member in the front office. Cell phones will be locked securely in the front office for the duration of the school day. Cell phones will be returned to students as they exit campus at dismissal. If a student needs to contact their parent during the school day, students will notify staff and arrangements will be made for students to use school phones. I hope everyone has a relaxing summer and please reach out if there are any questions.
