Summary

Florida lawmakers enacted a law that requires public schools to prohibit cell phone use during school hours or “instructional time” and they are seeing the benefits from it. Schools that are putting in more extreme rules that include confiscation of phones if they are seen using them have seen spikes in focus and engagement while seeing drops in bullying. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Danamarie Mcnicholl, Miami correspondent for FOX News, about the ban and how school officials and parents are reacting to it.
