Worcester parents, school officials clash over young students' screen time

WORCESTER – Parents expressed frustration after the School Committee declined to take up a petition to eliminate one-to-one device use for the youngest students in the Worcester Public Schools. The committee did vote to continue the discussion in a subcommittee. "The largest school districts in our country have put forward bans – New York City with 900,000 students and Los Angeles with 450,000 students," Noelia Chafoya, parent of a first grade student at Quinsigamond Elementary School, said during the Thursday, Nov. 12, School Committee meeting. "We know our educators work really hard and they are not putting students in front of a screen all day; however our youngest students learn in 10- to 15-minute increments.
