In most states yes, if the child is using the phone inappropriately. For example, the big thing today is texting other students, playing games instead of doing school work, etc. Typically the school will call in the parent, explain what happened, and give the phone to the parent with a warning. Personally my children took cell phones to school with the understanding it was only to be used in case of an emergency. If they broke that rule, they would face my wrath, and as a former Marine I had a lot of that!

If you're going to school you must live by their rules. If you take something to school that you're told not to and the rules are that it will be taken away, don't be surprised when it's taken away. Next time, don't take it to school.


Are schools legally allowed to take away a students phone?

It depends on the school's policies and the circumstances surrounding the situation. Schools may have rules in place regarding the use of electronic devices during school hours, and confiscating a student's phone could be a consequence for violating those rules. However, schools typically must have a valid reason for taking away a student's phone, and they should follow proper procedures.

Hats in school?

Hats should be allowed in school. It is not such a big deal seeing how the teacher has complete control over taking it away if it is a problem. I believe that they should be aloud if the teacher gives them 1 chance to have them.
