In this episode of Brighter Together, I sit down with Jason Gribble, the Assistant Superintendent for Secondary Curriculum and Operations at Taylor School District in Michigan. We delve into the critical intersection of technology and education, particularly focusing on the challenges posed by communication devices and social media in schools. Jason shares insights on how the district is implementing a new policy to restrict cell phone use in classrooms, emphasizing the need to foster meaningful interactions among students and reduce anxiety linked to social media. With over 3,800 students under his care, Jason's experiences and strategies can offer valuable lessons for educators navigating similar issues nationwide. Join us as we explore innovative leadership in education and the vital role culture plays in shaping young minds.
