Parents, what do you think about a four-day school week with Fridays off? 🤔

Iron County recently approved moving to a four-day school week, and other Utah communities are already using similar schedules. (KSL)

Would you support seeing more Utah schools move to four days a week?

👍 Yes — give families their Fridays back!
👎 No — keep the traditional five-day week.
🤔 Maybe — I need to know more.

Parents, we want to hear from you. What are the pros and cons for your family? Drop your thoughts in the comments! 👇

Brilliant! Every parent should think about this.

Grateful to for taking action to protect Utah kids online.

But this is just the beginning.

Meta is a social media giant, but and each take up more teen screen time than Instagram and Facebook. Apple and Google have take zero responsibility for their role in exposing children to harm.

One corner of the internet is being addressed. Some of the biggest corners where kids actually spend their time are still wide open.

There’s much more work to do.

This moment has been years in the making.

In March 2023, Utah Parents United was honored to stand alongside Gov. Spencer Cox, Sen. Mike McKell, Rep. Jordan Teuscher, the Attorney General’s Office, and others as Utah became the first state in the nation to enact comprehensive social media regulations designed to protect children and empower parents.

Utah led—and other states followed.

Today, we are grateful to see that fight continue. Thank you, Attorney General Derek Brown, for picking up the torch and helping secure this landmark settlement and new protections for kids online.

But our work is far from finished. YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, and other platforms must follow suit. And we must continue advancing the App Store Accountability Act so parents have the ability to decide whether their children can download these apps in the first place.

We fundamentally believe parents cannot fully exercise their right to protect and guide their children while Big Tech is allowed to exploit children’s attention for profit.

Parents—not algorithms, platforms, or the attention economy—should be the primary influence in our children’s lives.

We were proud to be there when Utah led the nation in 2023, and we’re proud to still be fighting today.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon made it clear: parents need to be involved in how AI is being used in their child’s education.

That’s exactly why we are sharing an AI Opt-Out Letter.

Utah parents have rights. If you’re not comfortable with how AI is being used in your child’s classroom, start the conversation, ask for an alternative, and take back control of your child’s AI use.

Parents have a voice. Use it. Link in stories.

🎓 UTAH IS EXPANDING EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY! 🇺🇸

More school choice is coming for families thanks to the new federal education scholarship opportunity included in the One Big Beautiful Bill.

Congressman Burgess Owens was a major champion of this effort, and he’s joining Utah State School Board Member Joseph Kerry for a conversation about what this new opportunity could mean for Utah families—and how it can help expand parent choice, strengthen education, and bring more resources directly to students.

Come learn what’s ahead and how Utah can continue leading the way on education freedom and parental choice.

We hope to see you Wednesday!

We can relate to this as parents.

We have no idea what’s in these games, but we know Roblox is bad—and that’s the first thing they’re going to recommend.

This is why the App Store Accountability Act is the best tool for parents. It will force Apple and Google App Stores to accurately rate their apps and disclose if there’s harmful content for children.

For example: Does this app allow your children to chat with strangers? Parents should know that before giving an app to their child.

Go to AppStoreAct.org to learn more.

This is the tool every parent in America needs.

As our kiddos head back to school, a lot of parents are thinking about AI in the classroom—and now is the time to ask questions.

Many Utah students will be interacting with AI tools through school-issued devices and accounts, including tools such as Google Gemini. Your school or district may also be using other AI-powered programs as part of classroom instruction.

Parents, get informed and get involved.

Ask your child’s teacher, principal, or school administrator:

* What AI tools will my child be using this year?
* Which AI features are enabled through my child’s school account?
* How will my child be interacting with AI?
* What options do I have if I don’t want my child using a particular AI tool?

If you have concerns about your child interacting with AI, ask about your options to opt out.

Child First Policy Center has created an AI Opt-Out Letter that parents can customize and provide to their school.

👉 Visit ChildFirstPolicy.org to get the letter.

Parents should have a meaningful voice in deciding how, when, and whether their children interact with AI.

This school year, don’t assume you know what technology your child is using. Ask. Get informed. And take an active role in your child’s AI use at school.
