Hi Kathleen,

Students are allowed to carry their phones throughout the day, but they must be put away (and they are continually reminded to put them away) at the beginning of class.  Most teachers have a cell phone jail where students have to park their phone if they are caught looking at them.  

Best,

Monica Ahern at Hall HS in West Hartford

Hello!  Would love to know how other schools and teachers handle cell phone addiction.  No sooner than a teacher looks away for half a second and kids are checking their phones, snapchatting and texting.  It is an epidemic and addiction.  

THANK YOU!
