kids aint safe these days man

people that are supporting the student are basically saying it's okay for kids to misbehave this way, they can do whatever they want, and have no respect for authority (whether it be the teacher, principal's or police)

i don't agree with the officers actions, but the student was just as much at fault.
That's one hell of an assumption. Pretty much everyone in this thread agrees she shouldn't have been on the phone.

And with that crazy logic you might as well say everyone siding with the officer supports police brutality
 
 
And having cell phones in a classroom and not learning because of it can change a child's life forever.

The analogy makes PERFECT sense.

Changing a rule because of inprobable conditions. Look at the premise and not the names mentioned. 
Your analogy?
 
Emergencies do happen, there was time when there was some sort of gas leak at my daughter's school and all the parents were calling into the school but nobody was answering. They moved the children to another school but we didn't know which one until 5min before the kids arrived when we got an automated call.


Point is, things do happen, when I was in school on 9/11 and reports were going on saying a plan was flying in the direction toward 3 mile island, phone lines were tied up, mom tried calling the school and couldn't get through, that's when she called my cellphone.
Who denied things happen?

Man, the way everybody is wording **** around here and splitting hairs...
 
@Dathbgboy  , nobody denied things CAN happen. I mean hell, one of the things you named was the biggest freak show in recent US history. So of course things CAN happen. But things PROBABLY won't happen for 90+% of the days your child attends school.

So to ensure that your child gets the best possible access to the content, it makes sense that Cell phones are NOT allowed in the class room.

That is all I am saying.
 
Listen idgaf how rarely an emergency happens in my kids school. I need to make sure if it does the school has a better plan than "contacting the school". If not, my son wouldn't attend that school it's simple.
Boy, I wonder how people in the 80s/90s/00s handled school Emergencies. Parents must have lost their minds because they had to call the school and/or wait until the school contacted them.

Has nothing to do with the present tense but thanks for sharing your thoughts

Ok, so you are ok w/ them in schools, just not in class rooms?
 
As of right now there is no room for phones in the public education environment. It doesn't make sense for students to have phones around unless they are using them to enhance their education.

I don't trust children so I am ok with students having their cell phones taken, in the AM, from them and kept in the office. Students should NOT have cell phones in their possession when they walk into ANY adult's class.
 
i havent read through the entire thread but watching the video and hearing how she was refusing to leave the class obviously something needed to be done. IIf a student is distracting to the other students and defying the teacher,admin, and police you need to remove her.

He should not have slammed her like that and definately used more force then he had to but removing her with some sort of force was definately warranted

Ok, I get it now. The jumbled messages had me thinking of not having them in schools, told you b, too much bickering going on in here :lol:

There's a lot of things that don't make sense in the public education environment, cellphones are the least of the worries but I'll it at that :lol:
 
What era you think has a higher graduation rate? Cell phones or no cell phones? There's better things to be concerned about in the school system than a girl on Twitter

So THAT is your metric on whether or not cell phones should be in the class-room?
 
no wonder more and more mental health agencies have to go into school and educate these teachers and administrators smh.
 
the bigger problems in education are way harder to correct than banning cell phones

eventually education will catch up and make the most of cellphones in a school setting but for now they are a distraction

funny how people who dont know much about education seem to think their opinions are just as valid as those who do 
 
Lack of comprehension, sorry you were distracted in school.
