[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our middle school just mentioned in passing in a recent summer newsletter that the cell phone rule is the same as last year, cell phones have to be kept in lockers during the school day and turned off. They can be used on the school bus. I’m wondering what they will do about things like field trips. Last year there was an all-grade field trip to a pretty far venue that did not accept cash and kids were encouraged to use apple pay (i.e. with phones). Will these days now be cell-phone free too? [/quote] This is going to be such a disaster. It's a rule from a bunch of out of touch adults who don't know how much kids actually rely on cell phones for stuff like this.[/quote] You guys realize you can send a credit card with kids. You can’t be suggesting we don’t try to limit phone use in schools, which is catastrophic to their learning and general well being, because sometimes a field trip might not take cash. [/quote] Catastrophic? Please get a handle on your anxiety. [/quote] I’m a teacher. I am not exaggerating how bad phones are for their ability to learn. [/quote]
