text: I think either of your policies are just fine, but to not make students not get into trouble I think your first policy of letting them use their phones at lunch times and free times is just great and also to have them turned off while they are in class. I mean if students get to use their phones lets say at least two periods a day, they'll be just fine and won't really have the urge to use it in class. The reason why I am saying this is because, example me if my school had a policy like that I would barley take out my phone in class and start using it while the teacher is teaching. I rather have that policy than the second policy of not allowing students to bring phones to school at all because there is more chance that students will use their phones in class. Using phones in lunch is no problem because it's not education , it's time to eat and or talk to friends. Lunch periods are considered more like to be a free period and that is where students should and would have the more the urge to use their phones.
