All kids deserve a phone-free school

How does PFSM define Phone-Free?

The best practice definition of a phone-free school is a “first bell to last bell” policy that requires all personal electronic devices (cell phones, smartwatches, earbuds, AirPods, fitness trackers and Bluetooth connected headphones, etc.) are securely locked away and inaccessible for the entire school day.

MISSION

Provide youth the freedom to excel academically and develop socially without the pressures and harms of phones and social media during the school day.

VISION

A collaborative movement by parents, educators, administrators, and students to support and implement effective phone-free policies for K-12 schools.
