[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With budget cuts from county and FCPS where results are to be no middle school clubs, cuts to HS and more, will be shameful if FCPS pays millions to yet another 3rd party and this time for pouches - if just implemented at HS, with 50,000 students at $30 a pouch, that’s $1.5 million- then more if add MS. The pouch, which has already been proven out in other states to NOT be the deterrent hoped for (not to mention SO many online videos for workarounds). Don’t spend the $ and allow schools to discipline. Not debating phones in school, but absolutely against FCPS paying 3rd party for pouches that will not solve the problem and only take more $ away.[/quote]

I actually think Yoder pouches are a GREAT way to use the budget. Phones are such a problem now that it is absolutely a necessity to deal with the problem head on and I commend FCPS for taking the initiative. Yoder pouches in all schools. No phone use from bell to bell (which is already the policy in elementary schools).[/quote]
