The most supportive group of all respondents were high school parents, of which 97% agreed with the current policy. Two-thirds of students agreed that the current expectations are reasonable, although the students who perceived academic benefits were in the minority.

Nearly 80% of high school teachers said they would support a more restrictive policy and said they observed improved peer interactions with this year’s set of consequences.

In schools across Arizona, students are prohibited from maintaining their Snapchat streaks, making TikToks with friends and texting their crushes during class time.
