text: Normally phones must be off during class to not distract another students learning. If a phone did go off in class, it should be taken away and given back after class. Otherwise, this idea is fantastic. This would make lives at school easier for students to communicate. Say perhaps a student was sick and wanted a parent or other family to pick him/her up from school. Wouldn't you think that it would be fun to have phones allowed at school? Don't teachers have to communicate also? Ask yourself these questions, wouldn't it make you feel good that your students are happy with school?
