THE HIGH SCHOOL BALANCE CHALLENGE

February 17, 2026

6:00 PM - 4:00 PM EST

TBD

100 high school students face off in a team challenge (5 people to a team) to see who is mentally strong enough to keep their most distracting apps blocked. The BLOK device only currently works with Apple iPhones.

Students must sign up before February 10 in order to participate in the Challenge.

The Challenge is based on a points system. For every "BLOK" of time that team members (and total team) block their most distracting apps, they will earn points.

Team members will also be asked to keep short journal entries throughout the Challenge (Points Awarded for journal entries).

Teams will also earn points for attending In REAL LIFE activities that will be offered for free or at a discount!
