[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just take them away for the entire day. The kids can still email home and each other on school issued computers so there is literally no need for a cell phone at school. [/quote]
Maybe there’s a checkpoint the the beginning of the day and all kids put phones in a box.[/quote]
Sounds like prison.[/quote]

DCPS teacher here..I frequent this forum because I'm contemplating a change for commuting purposes....anyway, MCPS parents like you....you're the problem. I don't want to switch because of parents like you. Our school has students drop off their phone every morning and pick-up in the afternoon. Phones are a non-issue for us. It doesn't even sort of resemble a prison but it does resemble an actual environment conducive for learning. Parents don't complain. Time for you to grow up. [/quote]

Hi! Teacher here. I promise it’s not all like this. Just stay away from Bethesda and definitely Potomac.  Most parents are normal outside of that circle of entitlement.  [/quote]

I teach in Silver Spring and phones are a huge issue at my school. And parents are texting their kids all day long [/quote]

And, why are parents texting a problem?  There are no pay phones.  [/quote]

Because it is very distracting when kids are constantly getting texts in class. It breaks their concentration and focus. How is this so hard to understand? [/quote]
