text: Policy number 2 has a good side and a bad side to it. The good side to policy number 2 is that they will not be able to communicate to other students during class time. But the bad side of policy number 2 is that they would not be able to call there parents after school to pick them up. So i recommend a policy number 3, which is: students should not be aloud to have phones out during school hours, they should be turned off, but they may take it out after school if they need to call someone. That way they will not be calling/texting any one during class, and if they are caught with the phone on, they should get it taken away until the end of the day . Then after school they will be able to call someone. Thank you for reading my letter, i hope you take my recommendation of policy number 3.
