Parents sue school district over tech rules

Parents are worried about too much technology in schools. They were upset with big companies. Now, some parents sued their school district. They want to opt children out of internet use.

The school district made new rules for technology use. They limit devices for young students. But the district stopped parents from refusing internet devices. This old rule was taken away in June.

Parents say online sites can be addictive for kids. Social media can also cause harm. They worry children might see bad things online. One child played poker games on a school device.

The school district denies these claims in a statement. They will respond more through the court. Experts say this lawsuit is not common. Disputes usually do not go to federal court.

Many people want to limit screen time for students. Some states are already making new rules. Education leaders want a good balance for technology. It should help learning, not just be fun.
