1. Find out how one Nebraska high school made the leap to go completely cell phone free—and why students, staff, and even parents got on board.
2. Curious how they pulled it off mid-year? Hear the intentional language, rollout strategy, and surprising twist that made it work. Mitchell Roush, M.A., shares all the details!
3. You won’t believe the results—think better attendance, fewer incidents, and a significant culture shift.
