People shouldn't have cell phones in school
I don't think any student should have the ability to be able to use cell phones in school because they can cause distractions. A couple ways cell phones may cause distractions is people can play games on the phone, watch videos, and make phone calls. Over 87% of people play games and watch videos during school hours.
Other reasons people shouldn't be allowed to have cell phones in school is because people can text each other for answers on a quiz or on a test. 73% of students have been caught cheating on a test with a cell phone.
Some more reasons I think people shouldn't have cell phones in school is because they can harass each other and cyber bully one another. A percentage of 53% of students bully one another with cell phone. Some students can decide can decide to make a call to their friends to call in a bomb. Only 15% percent of students have called in a bomb each year. Students may also make threats to other people by texting them or calling them. Rumors can be spread with cell phones by texting and calling someone.
The final thing you can do with cell phones is invade peoples privacy by recording and taking pictures of what people are doing. Just 20% of students have been caught recording people and taking pictures of people in the bathroom.
To sum it up, students shouldn't have cell phones in school because they cause distractions, you can cheat on a test, you can cyber bully one another, and you can invade one another's privacy.
YES
No the teacher is not allowed to physically snatch the phone out of your hand in some states this is considered simple assault. The teacher is however allowed to ask you to hand over your phone for confiscation til the end of the day or otherwise noted on the school policies.
People could cheat easier, call/text quickly to get signed out of school, get on inappropriate websites at school through there phone, downloading, and other reasons why mobile phone are banned in school.
so they wont be ditracted
YES because some teenagers bike to and from school and in the winter time it gets colder and darker earlier so i believe that kids should be allowed for safety reasons.
If its a teacher you shouldnt be talking on a cell phone in class.
Because you have to agree to be subject to all the school's rules to be allowed to attend.
Well ... Its better when you turn your phone either on silent or turn it completeley off. I wouldn't be caught dead if my phone went off during school hours.
they would be on it all day and it will ring all the time in school I know because I am at school.
So that students can learn how to spell "allowed" instead of playing Angry Birds during class time.
if they dont have a car they should have a phone
only if they are kept turned off until after school because most people dont want to listen when theyre texting or chatting with someone in school or on the phone. Because your kids might need them for after school emergancie's. :) but this is my opinion.
