[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's MS has a parent mtg next week on it. I'm going and plan to voice strong support for this. (DC thinks it's dumb that they didn't first at least mandate use of the shoe racks; apparently only one class had those last year he said.) It'll be interesting to see how many are against it. I'm really surprised at the mostly negative comments in this thread. [/quote]

Some Teachers have reported that students refused to store their phone in a backpack or the shoe rack or anything similar. Some students were belligerent and threatened the teacher. Also, some Adminstations did not support Tacehrs who tried to enforce the phones being away in class. It was hard to enforce and, in some rare cases, dangerous.

Teacher here.  All that happens in schools, which is why I refuse to have a phone rack or take a student’s phone.  Those students refusing to put their phones away before are the ones who will not willing lock it in the pouch. They will put a fake phone, an empty phone case or say they don’t have a phone.  The rule following kids will lock away their phones, just as they followed the previous plan.  [/quote]
