text: Having our phone could actually teach us something or two about responsibility. We would also be more prepared for class. Another thing is to keep in touch with our loved ones. This is why I strongly agree to be allowed to use our phones.Many students have to worry about their academic life and their life at home. For example, some have to look after a younger sibling while others can't get a ride home. Extracurricular activities should just be something students can choose to do. The principal is accomplishing nothing by forcing kids to participate in activities that they may not be able to do.
