[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a middle-school teacher. We already have a no-cell-phone policy. We are supposed to confiscate any phones we see at any time. But it’s a losing battle. Every kid has a phone, and they sneak them. Confiscating them turns into an argument. Half the time the kids are texting with their parents, who get angry when the phone is taken. Now all the kids are getting around the policy by getting smart watches. While the governor’s policy is a good one, ultimately it doesn’t change anything for me. It’s still my problem to deal with.[/quote] My middle schooler never used them until this spring when half the class was studying for SOL retakes and the rest were told to occupy themselves. The school created a new block just for SOL study. I supported here cell phone use and eventual truancy during that time of the year [/quote]
