    I think flip/dumb phones are still allowed with most smartphone bans, are you suggesting this one is different?

    I think this is less about isolating kids than it is separating them from distracting and addictive apps.

    Also it creates a class distinction in schools - some kids don’t have them causing them to be socially isolated

    Personally I think the schools should be handing out locked down wifi phones to students without smart phones. But I don’t think any part of this is about isolating students.
