[quote=Anonymous]Our rising eighth grader got one at the end of seventh grade, when the orchestra went on a field trip and everyone was expected to have phones. Like literally they made everyone turn in their cell numbers as a pint of contact for the trip, and then pushed out tickets electronically to kids’ phones. Everyone had one except our kid, so we bought one. But as early as sixth grade the front office gave her grief when she asked to used the phone to call us, even though their official position is that kids should use the main office phone to contact parents and should NOT feel compelled to bring in cell phones. When she would ask, the employees would say “why can’t you just use your phone?!” You are entering a very different world than elementary. [/quote]
