As students return to class next week, San Diego Unified is launching a new technology policy aimed at making screens less of a distraction and more of a learning tool.
"Our focus can't just be on access to technology or access to a device, but really on the content within those devices,” Shayna Hazan, San Diego Unified School Board Trustee says.
“Making sure all of the technology our students have access to is in service to student wellness and student safety."
Starting this school year, YouTube and other streaming platforms will no longer be available by default on student devices.
Teachers will still be able to give students access to YouTube when it's part of a lesson.
