Wavemaker Conversations: A Podcast for the Insanely Curious
Society & Culture
In September 2022, The Buxton School, in Williamstown, Massachusetts, is becoming a smartphone-free campus. No smartphones at all. Not for students. Not for teachers. Not for administrators. In this Wavemaker Conversation with Buxton's Director Emeritus, Franny Shuker-Haines, we discuss the tipping point (there was more than one) for this bold leap. For parents, teachers and students who are listening, this may help you assess whether you'd like a 24/7 smartphone-free campus in your future. I'll be following up with Dispatches From Buxton in the fall to report on how the transition is going.
