As of November 13, 2024, Caldwell School District implmented this 'Phone Free Learning Act' and started having students put their phones in a locked container during learning hours. A few direct quotes from the article - "Principal Shelli Rambo said that students had become more productive without the constant distraction." "People are getting along better, they’re working with each other, they’re just learning to interact,” Rambo said at the school on Wednesday. “Over the past few weeks, parents that I’ve talked to — three of them have said, ‘my child isn’t on their phone as much at home, either.’” "“Last year, with being able to have our phones and everything, it just gave me an excuse to not work on my stuff, so I just kind of went off the rail. This year, we don’t have nothing else to do during the day, so we actually bust out our work,” Rodriguez said. “Honestly, I think it’s pushing us harder to graduate, because we can have our phones every day after that.” And with Navigating Tech Family we take it a step further and help families create a lifestyle that access tech but in a more intentional way. The Reset Tech Kit is a great way to continue this life giving change.
