Meta's $214 Million Minnesota Settlement, St. Paul's Phone-Free Schools, and Indigenous Peoples' Day at the Fair

A massive Meta settlement is sending $214 million to Minnesota. What does that mean for how kids actually experience social media? St. Paul Central Principal Cherise Ayers joins to talk about the school's strict phone-away policy, AI in the classroom, and why consistency is the answer to chaos.
