Students who are using them should have them taken for the day and given back at the end of the day. The student should also be paddled in front of the class or in the area they are caught using one. This is swift and clear punishment.

I think cell phones should be banded from school to much texing and talking and no learning! Also if the parents would be parents the phones would’nt be at school with the kid in the first place.

I think cell phones should be prohibited from schools. I made it through school without a cell phone and I’m still breathing. It’s not the end of the worl if you go to school without a cell phone. I think the students will spend more time on the cell phones in class instead of spending time in the books!

I don’t think nothing should happen and I don’t understand why cell phones are prohibited from school.

Let them take them to school, but set them to where they can only call their parents since emergencies is the excuss as to why they need them.

Believe it or not I made it all the way from grades 1-12 without a cell phone. The concept was like science fiction. Kids don’t have to have mobile phones at all. If they can’t abide by the rules, take it away and let them think about it until the next school year.

Angel,

  I applaud you for being on here and voicing your oppinion. I can only reply like this.

I went to school from Kindergarten all the way to graduation and did not have a cell phone. You know what? I am still alive and did just fine without a cell phone. You do not NEED a cell phone in school. You want a cell phone because it is a status symbol. Just like when I went to school, the bigger the boom box, the better. Everyone would bring theres to school to show off. Eventualy the school banned them because they became to much of a distraction. The only difference is with phones, you are able to communicate, and very discretely, with others. That is a lot more distracting, and potentialy dangerous, than a boom box. Sorry, I still don’t see a need for kids to have cell phones.

Well me as being a student, I feel we should have cellphones especially in case of an emergency. And sometimes we cant use the office phone. Or else we could just keep the phone on silent all day.
