What do you think? Is it finally time to ban cell phones in school? At least 24 states plus the District of Columbia have passed laws or enacted policies that ban or restrict students' use of cellphones in schools.
Would love to hear your two cents!

Here's a resource for all my science teacher peeps to use whenever a student asks you, "Can I lick it?" 😆
Thinking about teachers this week and hoping all have a great year. Make that first day for students the best they’ve ever had.

Before you celebrate this #MemorialDay weekend, be sure to also remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. We can never repay our debt, but we can choose to be thankful.

April showers bring May flowers.
And the transition from April to May brings some really fun memes, too.
You're welcome.

#DidYouKnow? More than 380 million tons of new plastic is produced annually, and less than 6% is recycled. Much of the plastic dropped into recycle bins doesn’t get recycled, either.
#DidYouKnow? NC is one of only 9 states requiring 2024 graduates to take a personal finance class in high school.
Real-world topics covered include personal budgeting, the importance of savings, the right way to use credit cards, managing debt, how to understand interest rates, and more.
I’m so glad we do this for our students in North Carolina!

Just wanted to say how proud we are of both NC State basketball teams for making the Final Four! Not many picked the women's team to make it this far, and nobody even expected the men's team to make the tournament at all – and yet here we are!
To both Wolfpack basketball teams: keep fighting, keep believing, and keep DJ Burns’ attitude of “just having fun out there” (posted after the Duke win last night). Go Pack!

From all of us at Encounter Learning, we hope you have a great Easter weekend!
