Maybe they could issue phones to kids that don't have them so the ones that don't care about school are busy watching tiktok instead of distracting others.[/quote]

Teachers need to care about all students. The ones who don’t care usually suck up more time and energy from the teacher. It is draining to work with them but you can’t give up. Generally, there is a reason why they are so disinterested. But it takes time to figure out what is going on with them. Small gains sometimes take huge effort. It is not cool for a teacher to ignore any student - at least that is my philosophy. [/quote]

Asking teachers to solve massive social problems by just caring more is how we got into this situation to begin with. No.[/quote]

This is why we need smaller classes. And we need Honors and on-level - not Honors for All. I have students who only show up sporadically but I can’t ignore them when they do show up. Every kid deserves attention - whether they are special education, high-performing, slackers, etc. Smaller classes and strict phone policies would help a lot [/quote]

As a teacher you can have a strict phone policy and work with parents.  Honors for all is an issue for kids who are not as academic and it does them more harm than good if they cannot keep up.[/quote]
