Reducing Screen Time for Students

Dear Hoover Families,

We encourage families to be mindful of the amount of screen time children receive each day. While technology is a valuable learning tool, children also need time for reading, playing, talking, being active, and spending time with family.

Please consider setting healthy limits on recreational screen time and encouraging activities that support learning, creativity, and social development.

Thank you for partnering with us to support the whole child!
