[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many schools say no phones in school during the day (must be checked-in/kept in lockers). That is the policy at Holton (where my daughters attend) and Holton announced the HS will be no phones next year too. But check whole tech policy: if kids are on laptops, that is a little bit of a distinction without a difference as kids [b]can text, play games, surf the internet from computer[/b] (though not having phones at social times/class changing is a plus).[/quote] My kid can do this in HS with the required MacBook but could not do so in MS at our k-8 with the school-provided Chromebook. They couldn’t log into their personal accounts if they had them, so no texting. Lots of websites were restricted and blocked. They did have a few games but if they were caught playing them outside of a couple of very specific times (like indoor recess if it was raining), they’d get a demerit. [/quote]
