text: What do we do if an after school activity is canceled and we don't have a ride home? Are they supposed to walk home and freeze? During lunch we can let our parents know that our after school activity has been canceled and instead of walking home they can pick us up. Also, we can let our parents know what time our lunch is so they can call or text us if they need to let us know our pick up spot has changed or if they might be a little late picking us up from school. Letting us have cell phone during lunch could turn out to be very beneficial for parents and students.
