Help me give my students a safe place to store their cellphones. We are hoping that by having their phones locked up student's will be able to engage in learning and have greater focus.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Levan's classroom raised $247
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Hang up the Phone is a project near to my heart. We are trying to find ways to reconnect with our students. Unfortunately students are struggling when asked to put their phones away. In an attempt to reconnect with our students we are trying a phone locker system in our school. Students will turn in their phones daily. The goal here is to remove the current largest distraction we are struggling with. We want this to start the conversation of healthy relationships with technology. We are hoping to change the relationships that our students have with their phones post Covid quarantines.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
