Virginia’s Commonwealth Conversations Fireside Chat about cell phone use and childhood anxiety.
Simulcasts of the event were held around the state on September 19. AHPS was pleased to invite our friends in Craig County Public Schools and Rockbridge County Public Schools to our local event.
The simulcast of the chat was not available for private streaming but is now available online via the Virginia Department of Education YouTube Channel. The one-hour video may be of interest to parents, school staff, and others in the community. It features author and scholar Jonathan Haidt discussing trends in cell phone use by young people and the consequences of such use.
More information about the simulcast events and about student cell phone use in Virginia is available on the Virginia Department of Education website.
