Life beyond likes
Social media rewired a generation. This reverses it.
Students at Burley High and Burley Junior High give up social media until the start of their senior year. The Goode Foundation pays them for it. Parents and students confirm together, four times a year.
What the challenge pays
The younger you start, the longer the commitment, and the larger the award. Family and friends can add to it at any time.

No social media anywhere. Phone, laptop, school device, tablet, console, a friend's screen. Anywhere means anywhere.

What students gain
With fewer distractions, more time to concentrate on studies and academic goals.
More quality time with friends and family, without the constant pull of social media.
