Family therapist Tom Kersting says schools see changes almost immediately after banning phones.

“One of the schools had banned phones during the school day.”

“I was there two days after the ban and had teachers come out, come and tell me that they’ve seen already changes in kids.”

“One kid that was quiet in the classroom was raising her hand.”

“There’s interaction going on in the cafeteria.”

“There’s loudness in the hallways.”

“Schools that have already been doing this for the past year… test scores are up.”

“Mental health episodes during a school day are down.” “Infractions are down.”

“I don’t see any downside.”
