In this episode, Lori Alhadeff joins us to discuss how technology is literally saving lives and the necessary policies that secure our children's future.
We dive into:
* Alyssa's Law: The story behind the critical law mandating silent panic alarms in schools, and how technology drastically reduces emergency response time, proving that seconds equal life.
* The School Board Perspective: Lori offers her unique view, as both a grieving parent and a school board member, on the difficult compromises required to protect students.
* The Cell Phone Dilemma: We tackle the issue of school cell phone bans. Lori explains why removing devices during the school day is a necessary step for reducing distraction, mitigating digital bullying, and improving student mental health.
* Encouragement & Advice: Practical guidance for parents, educators, and students navigating the new digital and physical safety landscape.
Lori Alhadeff's mission is to ensure no family endures the tragedy her own did. This is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of tech, policy, and the fight for safer schools.
