text: Don't think i forgot about you and the rest of the staff though because there is also plenty of ways this benefits you and the rest of our school staff. Having our cell-phones turned off during classes makes it so there is no possible way that we can cheat on a test. That way you wouldn't even have to worry about a problem like that. It would definitely be no distraction what so ever to the class because we would understand the serious consequences of having a cell-phone on during a regular class period. This also can help you by having way less kids running in and out of the office trying to use the one phone the school has! If most kids have their own cell-phone then the office phone would rarely ever be busy with kids trying to contact their parents. When we are allowed to have our cell-phones on there is nothing that can go wrong. If we are just in a free period or lunch it's not like we can cheat on anything or use our cell-phones for anything other than what's necessary and i am very sure that students would never take advantage of having that rule.
