Resource For Schools: Tech Opt-Out Letter Template


Published May 28, 2026

Resources for Schools

To better assist schools in protecting students from digital harms, EPPC Fellow Clare Morell and EPPC Policy Analyst Chloe Lawrence have drafted a letter template for school administrators to encourage parents to foster a tech-free environment at home.

The letter is available as both an editable pdf and a text-only document. Schools are invited to download and edit the pdf or to copy and paste the text to use on their own letterhead.
