text: I believe that you should select your first policy. If students can have there phones out during free time and lunch periods than they will be less likely to use try and use the in class. During school kids complain that they are not able to use there cell phones at all in school, but if they could use them during free times than they could talk with friends then and not have a need to during class. Think of what would happen if you go with the second policy, students will try and talk to friends during your teachers classes. When the students use there cell phones in classes they worry more about number one, getting caught and number two being able to talk to there friends. Most schools worry that students that have internet capability will post mean things about other students on social networking sites. You cant stop students from posting it at there homes, so they will do it there instead so you cant prevent that from happening.
