[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It should have to stayin the locker until after school ends.  If teacher sees it, it's confiscated for the day.  These phones are awful for kids anyway.  I wish they'd ban them.  If parents can't arrange pickups or something unexpected happens, call the school.  Or just freaking show up when you said you would.[/quote]

What if there is a problem at school? I had sports practices cancelled, or ended early, on occasion when I was in high school. Used the pay phone to call my mom. [/quote]

Then you use the office phone and you saved yourself a quarter.  Seriously, you all make your kids so dependent on them and then ask them not to use them during school?  I work in a middle school and they are used all day long.  Teachers have given up.  It is really sad how kids at lunch don't even look at each other and talk anymore.  [/quote]

The office is open at 7pm?  Serious question. Is there always someone in the office if there are extracurricular activities scheduled at the school? [/quote]

Yes, by state law there HAS to be an adult with keys while ANY child is in attendance.  Whether it is a coach, janitor or office member.  Can you tell me what extracurricular activities your child is in at middle or high school where there is no adult available?  Do they coach/teach themselves?  All PE offices have phones too.  So do the library.  I bet that coach/teacher would have a phone too.  I would love to hear your example of your child locked out of the school alone where all the adults left him there.... please.
