text: I'm writing you this letter to let you know that I and other students believe that policy 1: Allow students to bring phones to school and use them during lunch periods and other free times, as long as the phones are turned off during class time, should be the new rule or at least try it for a week or two and see how well it works. If it doesn't work that well then don't make it a permanent rule, but if it does go well then you should make it a permanent rule.
