[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why was a pilot program needed by MCPS for this anyway? There is a ton of research out there about the harmful effects of phones on teens and young children. Many states have a strict ban on cell phones in schools. Private schools mostly ban cell phones in classrooms and are strict about it. MCPS is dragging their feet because they have no idea how to impose consequences that are consistently applied. Such a joke![/quote] I absolutely agree. My daughter goes to private and they are banned, even in lunch. They can go to lockers for 10min following lunch to use them to update parents on any after school arrangements. It can easily be done. The problem is some whiny parents who are also addictive and administration too lazy to handle the initial pushback. [/quote]
