ALLEGRA BOVERMAN/Staff photo. Gloucester Daily Times. Rockport: Rockport Elementary School will join thousands of schools, libraries, and community groups nationwide in a coordinated effort to encourage millions of Americans to turn off televisions, computers, and video games for seven days. Starting Monday, April 30 through May 6, the school is encouraging its pupils to “turn on” the world around them as they turn off all their electronic diversions. Playing in front of their family's television that has been blocked with a sign are Ella Lorenz, 6, little sister Tessa, 2, center, and best friend Natalie Lamond, 7, all of Rockport.
