Summary
Cellphone bans in schools are gaining bipartisan momentum, with at least eight states, including California, Florida, and Virginia, enacting restrictions to combat classroom distractions and protect children’s mental health.
Governors from both parties, such as Arkansas’ Sarah Huckabee Sanders and California’s Gavin Newsom, support these measures, citing benefits of phone-free school days.
While some parents oppose bans, citing emergencies and transportation needs, proponents argue phones disrupt learning and may pose risks during crises.
States differ on implementation, from outright bans to district-level policies or funding for phone storage solutions.
I mean, they exist yeah. I’ve seen plenty of videos of a teacher going off the deep end, who were fired after the video went viral. Take away phones and we’re back to my childhood where nobody believed the students because they couldn’t provide proof.
What should’ve I expect from a country that votes for a mentally ill criminal. Guess History is bound to repeat again and again.
