Anxious Generation Book Cover

The Platte-Geddes School District is excited to invite parents, guardians, and community members to join us for a special book study on The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt. This timely and thought-provoking book explores the impact of technology, social media, and cultural shifts on the mental health and development of today’s youth—and offers practical ideas for how families and communities can respond.
