Classrooms were once places of focus.
 
Today, many students sit behind glowing screens — scrolling, messaging, watching, distracted.
 
Teachers compete with algorithms.
Lessons compete with social media.
Attention spans shrink.
 
Students report rising anxiety, social pressure, and constant digital comparison. Teachers report increased disruption and declining engagement.
 
This is not about blaming students.
It’s about creating an environment where learning can actually happen.
 
Phones are powerful tools — but they are also designed to capture attention, not support concentration.
 
We are asking for:
 
• Phone-free classrooms during instructional time
• Secure storage solutions during school hours
• Clear emergency access protocols
• Strong digital literacy education alongside policy
 
Schools should be safe spaces for thinking, growth, and real human connection.
 
If we don’t set boundaries now, distraction will define the next generation’s education.
 
Sign this petition to restore focus, balance, and respect inside our classrooms.

    There should be limited use of phones and other mobile devices in a learning environment, for maximal attention. We should say no to all forms of distraction!

    Generally speaking, I think most people spend way too much time on their phones and it is a huge problem!!! Our children need to be able to focus on learning and building interpersonal relationships with others. Cell phones have no place in the classroom. Technology and information, yes. Cell phones, absolutely, no.
