Pennsylvania Moves to Ban Phones in Schools | Harrisburg News
Description
Schools across the U.S. are cracking down on phones — Utah’s high schools check them at the door, and Pennsylvania is poised to join the movement with new bills banning phone use from first bell to last. Governor Shapiro supports the measure, and districts like Eastern Lancaster County report better engagement and stronger social connections after implementing similar bans. Research backs the trend, showing academic and safety wins, while advocates stress students still get tech access via school devices. With nearly 40 states already restricting phones, Pennsylvania’s move could signal a nationwide shift.
