YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs of September 2025, 39 states have instituted #phonefreeschools, or #phonebans, half of them bell-to-bell (for the entire school day). The reaction from everyone has been positive, and we're only a month in!
Teachers and administrators report students are more engaged in learning and more talkative to each other during breaks. "We hear laughter in the halls again" — it's been a while!
If you're in a state or country that doesn't have bell-to-bell phone-free schools yet, go to anxiousgeneration.com/phone-free-schools for guidance. No school that has gone phone-free has regretted it! In fact, everyone raves so far.
