text: But I agree that we should not be allowed cell phones in class. When you are in a class room it is the teachers job to make sure you learn. Not to text or be on the phone with someone. But it is very hard to not be able to use you phone almost all day. We have breaks in school like lunch and advisory. I think we should be allowed to use them then. Lunch you are eating and talking to friends and sometimes you run out of subjects to talk about. So you could use your phone and text one of your friends from another school or a family member. It could be distracting during advisory because advisory is time to go see teachers if you have to retake a test, make up missing assignments and to get some of your homework done.
