Shifting the Norm


WHAT: Create new digital norms for our children, starting with delaying smartphones and social media

WHY: Because we are all striving for balanced digital lives — where in-person experiences take precedence, and technology amplifies rather than detracts from well-being, academic success, and mental health

HOW: Cultivate grade-specific parent communities across peer schools, host educational events, and partner with schools

WHO: Parents from Burkes, Cathedral, Convent, Hamlin, MCDS, Saint Vincent de Paul, SF Day School, Stuart Hall, & Town.

OUR MISSION:

To build a cross-school collective effort to prioritize in-person social and educational experiences
over screen-based childhoods through events, partnerships with schools, and partnerships with parents.
