PHONE AND SOCIAL MEDIA FREE SCHOOLS
BSF has drafted model Phone and Social Media Free Schools bill language in collaboration with The Anxious Generation, and the USC Neely Center.
It was written to establish a gold standard that prioritizes students’ mental health and development, academically and socially. We recommend the Phone Free Schools Movement Administrator Toolkit as a resource to assist in transitioning to phone-free.
