#CellphoneBan
It's gotta be bell-to-bell. #CellphoneBan
📵 Bell-to-bell cell phone restrictions = more real conversations, stronger social skills, and better problem-solving.

We can't compromise on the safety and well-being of our students. Call your legislator and tell them to support Governor Hochul's bell-to-bell proposal.

Should cellphones be allowed in classrooms? Most Americans say no. ❌📱

77% of U.S. adults support in-class cellphone bans for middle and high school students.

Today I note how, after Florida implemented their #cellphoneban in schools, Florida's national standardized testing scores dropped.

We need to work harder to improve schools by improving schools, not by banning technology.

My Take: I'm not buying this. Students are not performing at the same level after the ban as before. No way.
