Episode notes

New York Governor Hochul’s Bell-to-Bell Policy prohibits cell phone use during the entire school day. While the policy sets this overarching rule, it also grants schools the flexibility to develop their own strategies for enforcement, ensuring they maintain open lines of communication with parents. In this episode, experts delve into the policy’s design and its goal of fostering stronger connections between students and their work, teachers and peers.
