The Commons is a privacy-first app that automatically limits distracting social apps like social media and games during the school day, while keeping essential functions like calls and texts, academic tools, and medical apps available.

While phone communication remains technically possible to meet state requirements for emergency access, we encourage students to stay fully engaged in learning during the school day. We ask parents and caregivers to support this effort by avoiding routine messages during class time.
