Some parents dont want their kids to use tech at school. But districts are pushing back
· KRGV (NBC 5)
In Ardmore, Pennsylvania, parents are increasingly concerned about the use of technology in schools, particularly regarding excessive screen time. At a recent school board meeting in the Lower Merion School District, over 600 residents signed a petition to allow parents to opt their children out of using digital devices. However, the school board stated that technology is essential to the curriculum and that allowing opt-outs is not feasible. While many parents support teaching responsible tech use, they want to limit its dominance in classrooms. The debate reflects a broader national trend, with several states proposing laws to reduce screen time in education.
