[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a nightmare for high school teachers to try to police/enforce the cellphone policy while teaching and managing a class of 30+ students each period. I wish we could have “away all day” but I don’t see it being logistically possible in mcps due to parents needing their kids to have cell phones for “safety reasons.”[/quote] My children go to an MCPS high school that is trying this. Each teacher has a system for students to place their phones away - in a container near student, container/pouches near teacher. Kids do get it at passing and lunch. But the distraction has gone way down and it’s easy to enforce.[/quote]
