In a sweeping move that could ripple across the United States, the Los Angeles Unified School District has vowed to curb student screen time in classrooms, shifting away from laptops and tablets and back toward traditional pen-and-paper leaning. The school board approved the measure Tuesday in a 6-0 vote, with one member abstaining, marking a dramatic pivot for the nation’s second-largest district after years of heavy investment in education technology. Dozens of parents, displaying “Schools Beyond Screens” stickers and “Teachers Over Tech” signs, filled the room and applauded the final vote.
