Schools Beyond Screens - Waunakee Chapter
Petition for Intentional Technology Use in Waunakee Community Schools
The largest school districts in the country, led by the recent resolution passed by LA Unified School District, are starting to move on classroom screen time -- setting hard grade-level limits, blocking YouTube and gaming platforms on school devices, eliminating devices for the youngest students, putting restrictions on student artificial intelligence use, and requiring weekly screen reports to parents. These measures are not anti-technology; they are pro-learning. This isn't happening because administrators woke up and decided to act. It's happening because parents organized, showed up, and made it impossible to ignore. Your school board has the same authority right now. They do not need to wait for state guidance or federal standards. Dozens of districts have already acted. What they need to hear is that their own community is paying attention and expects them to lead. This petition gives them exactly that signal. The letter is based on real resolutions that have already passed, both nationally and locally. It takes only moments to sign and a few shares to gain momentum. Let’s do what we can today to protect the sanctity of learning in our community.
