@nbcnewyork: A cellphone ban at schools will be going into effect across NYC and the rest of New York for the start of the academic year. Some parents have concerns about being able to reach their children in case of emergencies, but students have complained about their classmates causing distractions with their phones. #schools #nyc #newyork #tech #techtok #cellphone #student #nbc4ny #education
My school is too broke to even consider doing this ngl.

Did the school pay for the phone? No, so they shouldn’t be able to take your phone

This is ridiculous. What happened to the wall phone pouches? That was the best. Easiest, and safest way for a student to put their phone away

Why can't they just have a box on the teachers desk then pick it up when class is done? Sounds simple enough.

who's gonna provide the money for yondr pouches if that's their plan??? they're $30 each so a school w 1k students is gonna need roughly 30k to pay for that, and schools are underfunded as it is.
