Banning cell phones in school while school shootings are a regular occurrence is top tier decision making
Students can keep a phone in their bag if they really need it. The fact that we ever allowed kids to scroll instead of paying attention in class is absurd.
What teacher allows kids to use their phones during class?
Teachers are hamstrung by administration.
“You can’t write up a kid for watching tiktoks in class, you have to call their parent.”
“Okay what if the parent doesn’t answer/doesn’t care?”
“You can ask the kid to put it away.”
“What if they won’t? Can I take it away? Can I kick them out if they’re watching porn on full volume?”
“Nope.”
If not allowing phones during class doesnt work, why would kids stop using phones during class by banning phones during breaks?
They shouldn’t have them at all.
It’s a huge liability issue - I guarantee every large high school in the nation has a group chat where nudes are shared.
Children should not have unsupervised internet access. It’s insane we went from the “family computer in the living room” model to 6 year olds watching porn on their iPad in the backseat of a car.
Why can't they be kicked out?
During my final, I had two students start to scream at me (like cussing me out - genuinely felt unsafe.)
I kicked them out to try to continue the final. 15 minutes later, the principal escorted them back to my room to lecture me.
The district had been sued for suspending too many students, so they just stopped imposing consequences. (One of those same students left my classroom at a point in the year to go beat up another student in the bathroom as part of a gang initiation - they got a single day of suspension.)
