The MHCA No Smartphones/Social Media until 17 committment: MHCA invites families to partner with us in protecting students’ focus, friendships, and childhood by delaying smartphones and social media until 17. If your child needs a way to stay connected, consider a Bark Phone, Gabb Phone, or Gabb Watch. Explore the linked Protect Young Eyes resource for options. My 17-year-old son and I also recommend the Balance Phone, though it is not included on that list, it may be a better choice for older students. Let's change the culture of our students for the better at MHCA! https://www.protectyoungeyes.com/recommended-items
