What Jamie wrote
Our kids have told me countless stories of kids in school using their cell phones all the time, not listening to the teachers. The problem is amplified when every student also has a Chromebook and access to the web. The distractions are nearly limitless. Is banning phones the right thing? I think yes. Is taking computer out of the classroom also right? That is a harder problem.
