[quote=Anonymous]We know they don’t HAVE to be in place til Jan 1 but school years don’t run by legislative calendars and with kids, the way you want things to run is the way you have to start. You can’t just switch up on Jan 1 and undo bad habits and rules that have been in place all year. It only makes sense to begin the policy now. That being said, the teachers who hold firm on it will see great results. I’ve had the best two first days of school in years with it. I have seen kids in the hall with their phone, which is NOT allowed per the policy, and those teachers will continue to fight the battle and lose because they couldn’t be firm and set the expectation on day 1. There is zero downside to it- the kids are talking more and not rushing through stuff to try to sneak their phone and make a pass to go meet their friends in the hall or bathroom since they can’t coordinate.
