[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In class, no kid should be in their phone.[/quote]

We decided to not let our 8th grader take his iphone to school anymore.  If he needs to reach us, he can call from the Office.

The kids are getting in way too much trouble on them as of late.[/quote]

This is the right answer.  Schools shouldn’t allow them al all.[/quote]
It used to be this way in our public school, but the pandemic changed it all.  Now, they are allowed.  :cry:

Thanks for subbing, OP.  My MS DC tells me that there are some kids who are just complete jerks, pre and post covid.   They cause so much trouble; never pay attention in class, and don't think having bad grades or bad attitude about learning is an issue.

IMO, these kids are part of the reason why now MCPS has a 50% rule, an achievement gap, and restorative justice that does nothing to address the underlying issue[/quote]

It seems like putting phones away would be a good initiative for the BoE to champion.[/quote]
