[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our ES principal refuses to enforce this and leaves it up to teachers who struggle to enforce it. I would LOVE for the law to change.[/quote] Wait, [i]elementary[/i] school kids are pulling their phones out in class (why do ES kids even have phones?) and the teachers say nothing. That's insane.[/quote] Our daughter's fifth grade teachers has shared the struggle with us - both with phones, and kids who have watches that have games/buttons/etc. Just tons of distractions that make instruction impossible. But often the teachers are on their own to make rules/enforce, adding on to the million other things they have to do. And opening them up to calls/complaints from parents who feel like they need to be able to text/communicate with their kid at all times. It is easier to have a policy as the 'bad guy' and let the teachers do their jobs (and let the kids learn and interact socially uninterrupted!) [/quote]
