More are coming

In an effort to address concerns over student distraction and mental health, 25 American states have implemented laws to ban or regulate cellphone use in schools, with more states expected to follow suit. These measures range from complete bans during school hours to restrictions during class time, aiming to improve student focus and reduce cyberbullying. The push for these regulations has been driven by both educators and parents, who have observed negative impacts of cellphone use on learning and social interactions. Some states are also providing funding for schools to implement these policies effectively, including the provision of secure storage solutions for students' devices during the school day. As the debate continues, more states are considering similar legislation to create a more conducive learning environment.
