[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I am ignorant here, as my kids have all attended private school. Public schools allow cell phones to be out DURING class?[/quote]
I was actually chatting about this with a neighbor the other day. Her son’s school (Ffx co) says that phones shouldn’t be out but they don’t collect them, and most teachers don’t enforce the rule unless they see a kid in a phone during a test. She’s annoyed about it because she doesn’t trust that her son isn’t using his phone when he’s not supposed to, but he walks to/from school and she doesn’t want to take it away as punishment or anything. She even contacted the school about it but was just given the line that teachers will enforce it if they see kids with phones out. So either the kids are all really sneaky, the teachers are oblivious, or the teachers just don’t want to be bothered. Pretty sure it’s the last one, but given how much is on the plates of public school teachers, I can’t really blame them for not finding this a battle worth fighting. [/quote]
