andrew 𐂯.ᐟ :

bitchiemitchiee :

CaliforniaForever86 :

Not w these mass school shootings. Nope.

Bebe Jade💙 :

banning cell phones before guns.. right. As a parent, I do not agree with this ridiculous policy

𝄞𑣲𝓐𝓢𝓗𝓛𝓔𝓨𝓨𝜗𝜚˚⋆ :

this is NOT gonna stop cyber bullying😭

Classyassangel :

Mines will not .. until they can be sure my kids are safe in the school… my kids will keep their phone or watch

_kai.ts👸🏽 :

MUERTO :

How about yall pay our teachers a fair wage…

JUNEBUG :

A lawsuit waiting to happen. A school shooter shows up and kids can’t call their parents is a no for me.

no :

My mom finna cuss teachers out taking my sister phone

Evaline :

It’s not gonna work. But it’s a nice try. I went to Oakland tech and those kids will make fake phones or break the pouches or just fight the teachers over it

prettylady_chels :

I don’t understand why parents don’t have parental controls on their kids phones 🫤 my sons phone is locked to several apps during school hours so the only thing he can do is call or text who I allow him to.

bayarea_unreleasedpapz :

Das why yu gotta have a trap phone lol😂

lex :

C’RIYAH🫶🏾❔ :

chickennugetzz :

Yeah no as a student I am not giving them my phone, I’ll give them one but not the one I’m using I genuinely don’t feel safe in certain areas I mean the city I live in isn’t exactly too dangerous but I’m not risking not being able to text my parents or family if I never get a chance to ever again✌

riseupandshine9 :

So who’s going to lock and unlock all these pouches? Staff are already overwhelmed. This won’t last.

axl.jamx :

Yall js added this law cs yall lack control over students😂

Sofi :

Anything but giving us better education better lunches this is fucken crazy

chuck.thebird.clementine :

Nice try….

BIG MAMA mother/of 3🦋🦋 🦋 :
