[quote=Anonymous]I work in a middle school in FCPS that has had this policy since the first day of school this year (no pouches, just away for the day). TWO kids are at the point that they need to check their phones in/out every day. Out of 1000 kids. That means they have been caught with their phones 4 times. 2/1000. This is my 19th year in a MS. It's the best year behaviorally since at least 2017. The kids are more engaged, there are no arguments with teachers over their phones and we've gone from 1-2 fights a week to ZERO this school year. The bathroom meet ups to vape and fight are non-existent. The only thing that's changed from last year (or the previous 7-8 years) is the phone policy. I will have a middle schooler next year and I am so thankful that APS is adopting this policy for all APS kids but especially my own.[/quote]
