text: You may be thinking that this is not a good idea, but it really is a very great policy. Even though cell phones are a major distraction when it comes to education. It is a force of habit that if you own a cell phone you will most likely always have it in your pocket or your bag. I do recommend that if a student is caught with a cell phone that they take it away from the student and give it back to the owner at the end of the day. But if you band having cell phones like in policy 2 the student body will get very offended and not even obey that policy.
