I don’t get it. Only now are schools considering banning cellphones from class? And that’s controversial? Teachers don’t allow reading comic books, playing tic tac toe, listening to music, etc. in class. Why would the constant distraction of cellphones be allowed? For communication during a school-shooter incident will likely be the reason in a parent lawsuit, and that has merit, but there’s gotta be a way to address this issue besides allowing free access to the internet during English class!

When two of my grands became scared during a swatting last year, their parents got them cell phones. They can have them in school, but not in class. They leave them in their lockers. I understand both sides. I feel horrible for teachers these days.
@CinnamonGirlE Ours was the standard stuff: “ did you bring enough gum for the entire class”? Does it look like I’m rocking a teachers salary?
