The Revive Land Group plans to build ranch-style homes for residents 55+ on a 53.8-acre site near McEachern High School, featuring amenities like a pool, pickleball courts, and walking trails. While developers argue the project addresses the growing senior housing demand, neighbors raised concerns about traffic, environmental impact, and community value. A traffic study is underway, and the commission will revisit the proposal in June after further discussions with residents. STORY 2: Cobb Grand Jury Adds Charges in Child Sex Abuse Case Against Marietta Couple A Cobb grand jury has indicted Brian Deshawn Phillips, 47, and Elizabeth Anne Cooley, 24, on additional charges of child molestation and cruelty, bringing their total charges to 41. The pair allegedly molested an underage girl over two years at a Canton Road hotel and face accusations of other assaults across Cobb County. Arrested in January 2024, they’ve been held without bond. Phillips, previously convicted of child fondling in Florida, is also charged with burglary and assault. Cooley is accused of assisting in one act. Their charges include rape, trafficking, and aggravated child molestation. STORY 3: Proposed West Cobb Cell Tower on hold amid Neighbor Concerns Plans for a Verizon Wireless cell tower in a west Cobb neighborhood are delayed after residents voiced concerns about property value impacts. The Cobb County Planning Commission voted to hold the proposal until June, allowing Free Bird Communications LLC, the builder, to address community concerns. The 189-foot tower, near Lewis Elementary School, aims to improve cell coverage and emergency communication. Residents fear property devaluation and safety risks, while Free Bird argues the tower is necessary and designed to minimize impact. The commission emphasized the importance of community engagement before moving forward. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Following feedback from staff, students, and parents, a pilot program will test alternative strategies to restrict cellphones, smartwatches, and personal laptops during instructional time. While 91% of teachers support stricter policies, some parents and students raised safety concerns. The board emphasized balancing teacher support with community input. The pilot will run through fall 2025, with results evaluated to determine next steps. Rivera aims to implement a plan by August 1 that minimizes classroom distractions while respecting all stakeholders. STORY 5: Seven Cobb Students Win National Merit Scholarships Seven Cobb County students have been awarded the prestigious 2025 National Merit $2,500 Scholarship, among 2,500 winners nationwide.

Vanessa Magula went from being a Hamilton superfan studying pre-health at UCLA to being cast as the standby for all three Schuyler sisters on the Philip tour. No, for real. Vanessa has always been a self-described theatre kid, evidenced by the fact that Deaf West's Spring Awakening is what inspired her to minor in Disability Studies, but it took her a while to take the leap and be a full time performer. After going to an open call for Hamilton in 2016 and being given a literal golden ticket for a callback, everything changed as Vanessa realized that - whether she booked Hamilton or not - this is what she wanted to do. In between yearly Hamilton auditions, Vanessa thrived in the New York City improv comedy scene and even ended up collecting Yondr pouches during Freestyle Love Supreme's Broadway run.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for April 11th Publish Date:  April 11th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, April 11th and Happy Birthday to Ethel Kennedy ****04.11.25 -BIRTHDAY – ETHEL KENNEDY*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Marietta Adds 11 Apartments to Development at Former Harry's Site UPDATE: Six Arrested After Shooting, Police Chase in Marietta Atlanta Rhythm Section to Perform at Strand Theatre Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sugar free cakes All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: MONSTER JAM STORY 1: Marietta Adds 11 Apartments to Development at Former Harry's Site The Marietta City Council approved changes to the Marietta Crossing development, adding 11 apartments for a total of 247 units at the former Harry’s Farmer’s Market site. After much debate and a veto from Mayor Steve Tumlin, the council voted 4-3 in favor of full residential use for one building, citing challenges in attracting commercial tenants. The developer argued the weak retail market made the change necessary. The site will also include 39 townhomes, with most being three stories tall. The decision reflects ongoing efforts to balance housing needs and market realities in the area. STORY 2: UPDATE: Six Arrested After Shooting, Police Chase in Marietta Six men, aged 18-23, were arrested after a shooting at Lakeside at Town Center Apartments in Marietta led to a police chase. The suspects, armed with handguns and an AK-47-style rifle, allegedly fired at two victims, Deshawn Hirsch and Miykael Davis, who were injured but later discharged from the hospital. The suspects fled in a BMW, crashing during a police pursuit. Multiple apartments and vehicles were damaged by gunfire, and police are investigating if others were involved. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact Marietta Police or submit anonymous tips. STORY 3: Atlanta Rhythm Section to Perform at Strand Theatre Fans of 70s rock can catch the Atlanta Rhythm Section (ARS) at the Strand Theatre in Marietta on Friday, April 18, as part of the Homegrown Georgia Songwriter concert series. Known for hits like “Imaginary Lover” and “So Into You,” ARS blends Southern rock with jazz and blues influences.

A former vice president of the Kennesaw Historical Society at age 10, he now serves on the Kennesaw Historic Preservation Commission. Bramlett has earned accolades like KSU's Undergraduate Research Award and the Georgia Historical Records Advisory Council award. He’s published articles, led tours at Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park, and unveiled historical storyboards. Known for his research skills and passion for history, Bramlett also assists with rare book collections at KSU, continuing to inspire with his dedication to preserving local history. STORY 5: 'A Conversation Starter': Marietta Super on State Phone Ban Georgia's "Distraction-Free Education Act" (HB 340), awaiting Gov. Brian Kemp's signature, would ban cellphone use in public schools for grades K-8 starting July 2026. Schools must adopt policies by January 2026 but can choose how to enforce the ban. Marietta City Schools already uses Yondr pouches to restrict phone access in middle schools and is considering expanding the policy. Superintendent Grant Rivera sees the bill as a statewide acknowledgment of the issue, sparking broader discussions, including potential high school bans. Cobb County schools, however, prefer a flexible, teacher-led approach to managing devices.

Rising to the Top speaks with Graham Dugoni, the founder and CEO of Yondr. Since starting Yondr in 2014, Graham has been a leading voice in the emerging conversation about the effects of technology on society. Graham invented the concept of “phone-free spaces” and “phone-free schools.” He is the product designer of the Yondr Pouch and the Yondr Home Tray. His mission is to help educators, artists, and organizations worldwide create distraction-free environments where focus and creativity can flourish in the absence of technology. Graham is a former professional soccer player and a graduate of Duke University.

Are spaces really phone-free?

They're incredible pieces of technology, they're unbelievably useful, and we feel lost without them. Nonetheless, smartphones have become the bane of our existence. So Graham Dugoni started Yondr with a surprisingly simple and analog solution to their ubiquity: locking pouches that force cell phone users to put away their device while still keeping their phones on them. Now, they're used everywhere from comedy shows, to concerts, courtrooms, and weddings. After the success of Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation, more and more states and school districts are instituting cell-phone bans — and, oftentimes, Yondr is the first company they turn to when they need help. Kara and Graham talk about the push to ban phones from schools, the company's success, and his philosophical take on smartphones, social media and technology. Questions? Comments?

Section I Are Smart Phones a benefit or a curse for the teenager in school? This is becoming a huge topic this past year or so. Logic would seem to dictate that this is a curse more than a benefit, but what does the data and expert opinion show? The Scientific American article "Do Phone Bans Help Students Perform Better in School?" examines the growing trend of banning smartphones in schools to enhance student performance and well-being. Numerous U.S. cities, including New York and Los Angeles, have recently implemented or are considering bans on phones in classrooms. Schools use tools like the Yondr pouch, which locks phones away during school hours, to enforce these bans. These measures are popular with educators and parents, with 60% of likely voters in New York State supporting such restrictions. Charlotte Schools has this policy: "In accordance with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Student Code of Conduct, personal technology devices, including cell phones must remain off and put away during school hours. Violations will result in confiscation of the personal technology device. The district is not responsible (monetary value or replacement) for theft, loss or damage to personal technology or other electronic devices brought onto CMS property." (CMS) My informal poll has a higher number of parents interested in phone ban restrictions in North Carolina....plus a section on teen anxiety. Enjoy, Dr. M

A new article in the Star Tribune came out featuring a new way students are surrendering their phones and the ability to use them in class at Hill-Murray so we talked to the President of Hill-Murray High School Melissa Dan about this new process where students use Yondr pouches to give up their phones for the day!

Here are the morning's top stories on Tuesday, September 23, 2024… In January of 2025 the Los Angeles Unified School District will ban cellphones on campus. More California school districts will follow suit, as Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law Monday that will require districts to restrict phones on campus. It's part of a growing movement to help students improve academically, socially and emotionally. But one school has a cell phone ban already in place... and the students seem to be thriving. At least 18 cities and counties across California have put in place new bans on homeless encampments since the Supreme Court in June gave them more power to do so. One of those cities is Fresno. California is suing ExxonMobil for an alleged "campaign of deception" around the true impact of plastic recycling. What One CA School Learned When They Banned Cell Phones Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill this week that will direct schools to create policies to restrict student cell phone use. But at Marina Del Rey Middle School in Los Angeles, cell phones have already been banned. There, Principal Sidra Dudley requires students to power off their phones each morning, then enclose them in neoprene pouches secured by a magnetic lock, created for that purpose by a company called Yondr. The pouches stay locked throughout the day.. Six months after the school implemented the ban, the Los Angeles Unified School District followed suit. With a 5-2 majority, the school board passed a resolution forbidding cellphones in all public schools. Students at Marina Del Rey Middle School say this ban has made them less distracted in class. And teachers say test scores are improving. Fresno Rolls out Plans for Homeless Ban Fresno city leaders on Monday laid out plans for enforcing one of the state's harshest crackdowns on homeless encampments, which bans public camping anywhere, anytime. Since the Supreme Court in June empowered cities to crack down on homeless encampments, and Gov. Gavin Newsom seized on the opening to push for ramped-up sweeps, at least 18 jurisdictions around the state have put in place new camping bans — the most of any state, according to a tally maintained by the National Homelessness Law Center. CA Sues ExxonMobil California is suing ExxonMobil for an alleged "campaign of deception" around the true impact of plastic recycling. The lawsuit was filed by The California Department of Justice on Monday. The lawsuit alleges that Exxon knowingly misled Californians by promoting all plastic as recyclable. The company is the world's largest producer of fossil fuel materials that are used to make single-use plastics. The lawsuit is seeking billions of dollars. This comes at a time when California Environmental groups, including Sierra Club and Baykeeper, have also announced a separate lawsuit against ExxonMobil over the same issues.

More than 70% of high school teachers in the U.S. say cell phones are a major classroom distraction, according to The Pew Research Center. Across the nation schools are adapting new bans on phones as they continue to cause issues in student learning. A number of Oregon schools have been adapting new practices to minimize the use of phones in class, ranging from cell phone pouches to new district wide policies. Before the school year began, Gov. Tina Kotek said this summer she’d like to see a statewide approach on the issue. Nick Lupo is the principal for Taft 7 - 12 Middle and High School in the Lincoln County School District. His school has been using Yondr pouches since last year. Gabe Pagano is a principal at Cascade Middle School in the Bend-La Pine School District, where a new “silent and away” policy has been put in place across the district. They join us  to share more on these policies and phone use has changed over the years in Oregon schools.

If you're a parent who reads the news - and who listens to this podcast - you probably heard a lot about screens this summer. And even now, as kids go back to school, we're hearing a lot about phones. No phones in schools. Put your phone in a Yondr pouch. Hide your phone in your backpack. People are doing TikToks in the bathroom. Take their phones away.Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt is at the forefront of a lot of these conversations. His book, The Anxious Generation, has really galvanized a lot of these conversations, around kids and phones and schools and their mental health. Today on ParentData, Jon joins us to talk about it all: both what his research has revealed and what's gotten a fair amount of pushback, particularly around the question of whether phones are really the boogeyman for teen mental health that everyone seems to think they are.Study on social media and mental health (Braghieri, Levy, and Makarin: American Economic Review, Nov. 2022)Subscribe to ParentData.org for free access to new articles every week on data-driven pregnancy and parenting.We're looking for your questions for a podcast Q&A!

District stops short of all-day ban on devices The Beacon school board on Monday (Aug. 26) unanimously approved a policy designed to keep cellphone use out of classrooms at Rombout Middle School and Beacon High School. It requires the 1,400 students attending the two schools to place their phones in "designated areas" at the beginning of each class but stops short of the full-day ban some parents had requested. Students will have access to their phones between classes and at lunch and recess but not, for example, during bathroom breaks in the middle of class. Students at the middle school will also be required to place smartwatches and earbuds in their backpacks while in class, while high school students will have to keep earbuds in their backpacks during class. At the district's four elementary schools, cellphones, smartwatches and earbuds "should never be out" of a student's backpack or storage during the day, according to the policy. Students who use smartwatches for medical reasons that require them to contact their parents will be accommodated, Superintendent Matt Landahl said. The restrictions go into effect when school begins on Wednesday (Sept. 4). The designated spaces for phones will likely resemble the repurposed shoe organizers introduced last year at Haldane High School as "no-cell motels." Locking cases with slots for each phone are on backorder and could arrive in October, Landahl said. Students who do not comply will be referred to an administrator. Consequences will be progressive and include a combination of loss of phone privileges and lunch detentions, Landahl told the board. Parents will also be notified. Dozens of Beacon parents organized over the summer and appeared at school board meetings advocating a full-day phone ban using something like the locking pouches made by a company called Yondr. Members of the group said Monday that they had created a form at bcsdphones.com through which students, parents or teachers can anonymously report harassment, filming without consent and other incidents involving phones. "Our growing working group will not cease until the entire Beacon City School District achieves a full-day phone ban, as this is the only phone policy that sufficiently protects our children's well-being," said one organizer, Hana Ramat, who spoke during the meeting. In addition, the board on Monday approved a handful of changes to the district code of conduct, some of them related to phones: Using a phone when permitted but in a prohibited way was added as a first-level (out of four) violation of the code, while refusing to put a phone in the designated area during class will be a second-level offense. Creating or disseminating profane, harassing or discriminatory images (real or fake) of students or staff was added as a third-level infraction, and removal of phone privileges was added to a list of more than a dozen potential consequences for code violations. Along with Beacon and Garrison, the Wappingers Central School District over the summer adjusted its cellphone policy, which prohibits high school students from using the devices on campus unless approved by a teacher. Once school begins next week, students who violate the policy must store their phones in locking pouches for the day. Such restrictions are part of a nationwide trend to limit classroom distractions and protect students from the dangerous impacts of social media while encouraging face-to-face interaction with peers. In California, the Los Angeles school board voted in June to restrict students in the country's second-largest district from using smartphones during the academic day. New York City schools are expected to implement a similar policy, but Mayor Eric Adams said this week that the district is "not there yet" logistically. Gov. Kathy Hochul has indicated that a statewide policy could be coming. She began a "listening tour" on phone usage in schools last month in Albany County and has held roundtable discussions in Eri...

Founded in 2014, Yondr is the pioneer of “phone-free spaces.” The company helps educators, artists, and organizations around the world create distraction-free environments where focus and creativity can flourish in the absence of technology.   Show Highlights   Phone-free spaces and its benefits for students and teachers.

And ir started from the point of view that smartphones and social media were radically new and there were going to be a lot of unintended consequences, basically, especially for young people. And I thought that it was my generation's responsibility to give them a sense and the experience of what life is like for at least 8 hours a day without that, so they could get perspective on them. -Graham Dugoni i   “It always starts with leadership, with someone who says,'I see this problem and how phones and social media are affecting my students and the way they're developing and their focus in the classroom and the way it affects my teachers and their ability to get to feel effective in their environment.' What we do is we come and say, 'Okay, here's how the honor product works. Here's how our program works.' But the most important thing is for you to get the commitment of your community. And that's what we always start with. We start with helping principals or superintendents to get that commitment from their community. That's the community, parents, that's very important, but also teachers and administrators in the school.” -Graham Dugoni i     Get the episode transcript here!   Graham's Resources & Contact Info:   Yondr Read my latest book!

In this episode of the IASA Podcast, Superintendent Dr. Dana Smith shares why he implemented the ban at the Junior High, how it's went so far and the impact he's noticed on student learning and engagement.

Teenagers spend tons of time on their smart phones, and often they don't stop even when they're in class. To address that issue, some Rhode Island schools make students put their phones in locked pouches. Our own Steph Machado just finished a segment for Rhode Island PBS about this growing trend.

This school year, Pierson High School instituted a new cellphone policy that requires students to put their phones away in locked bags, called Yondr pouches, at the beginning of the school day.

On this week's podcast, report Cailin Riley joins the editors to discuss how the policy is working out, what other school districts are doing, and the benefits and detriments of no-phone policies in schools.

When I was in seventh grade, something changed in my school. The administration at the Bronx Academy of Letters was implementing a strange new policy called “Yondr.” Haven't heard of it? Neither had I.Yondr is a company that makes lockable pouches for smartphones to create “phone-free spaces for artists, educators, organizations, and individuals.” The idea is that it helps with student learning by removing distractions from the classroom.As you might expect, students had some questions about the new policy, many of which I was wondering myself: Is the Yondr phone policy underestimating student maturity? How is the policy affecting student-teacher relationships?To get some answers, I talk to teachers, my principal, students who have experience with Yondr and even representatives from the company. Listen to this episode to for an inside look at the impact of restrictive cell phone policies on schools like mine.To join the conversation, send us a message and follow us on Twitter and Instagram.Never miss an episode!

Welcome to #Millennial, the home of pretend adulting and real talk! Clusterfuck 2023 rages on with CNN platforming Orange Julius, Florida being a total Florida man, and George Santos living up to his "who the fuck is this guy?" reputation. Was there a public benefit to CNN's Trump Town Hall, or was it a complete ratings whore move? Shortly after the town hall, Trump posted this deep fake of CNN's Anderson Cooper, harkening back to our warnings a few weeks ago about the part AI will play in future election seasons. On the topic of AI, Chat GPT delivered an original Disney tune about Mickey's impending destruction of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. We all agree overuse of cell phones at concerts is annoying - but how far are we willing to go to curb this annoying habit among concert goers? Bono and Garth Brooks are using Yondr cases, to create phone-free environments during their respective Broadway and Las Vegas residency shows. Guests will need to place their phone in a Yondr case, and can only unlock it upon exiting the venue. Not only do we see major health and safety risks to using something like this, it also takes away from the experience of concert-goers who want to share their own experiences at shows. From "I can't even" to "I don't have the emotional capacity for this right now": how the internet has developed its own take on therapy speech, and why it's annoying AF. Just like online discourse, we're all susceptible to adopting certain ways of speaking based on the environments we spend the most time in. Being influenced by celebrities, or even our professional lives can do this! This week's recommendations have no throughline: Pestie (Andrew), dog toys for mental enrichment (Laura), Chappell Roan (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark: Why do millennials and younger care much less about passing down family heirlooms than prior generations? JK, we know why: we can't afford houses big enough to take all your shit grandpa. Are there any items we have been offered, or know we will be in the future? Do we want them, and should we feel guilty if we don't? The family drama really kicks up when someone kicks the bucket - why are we fighting about who gets what things? We're all gonna die anyway.

Chances are if you are a fan of this podcast you have come across a Yondr bag at a Comedy Show or Concert. Yondr is a small locking bag that you put your phone in before you enter a concert or comedy show that can only be unlocked when you step into a phone free zone kind of like a smoking section. Graham Dugoni CEO of Yondr stops by to give us the history of this iconic invention. As a performer I fell in love with this invetion and I had to hear it's history. I think you guys will find this episode pretty damn cool. Love it or hate the Yondr I feel like we all need to unplug when we are out enjoying Art. DugonI, a former soccer player, founded Yondr after attending the Treasure Island Music Festival in 2012. After witnessing an intoxicated man dancing and people filming him, he pondered how this could affect freedom of expression. After raising $100,000 from friends and family, the company was up and running. Tune in and enjoy this mans story on episode 67 of The Grail DDR
