Child Cell Phone Use Facts:
1 day ago, Jennifer Crawford
Cell phone use causes sleep disruption: Research from the American Academy of Pediatrics suggests that the use of smartphones before bedtime can disrupt sleep patterns in children. The blue light emitted by screens interferes with the production of melatonin, a hormone responsible for regulating sleep. When children don’t get enough sleep, they are moodier, focusing is harder, and it can affect how well they do in school.
Please join us in thanking our school counselors for all the hard work they do and all the kindness they display! Our counseling staff members are an integral part of each building, and we're thankful for them!
