STOP DCSS 9-12 PHONE BAN MOVEMENT.

Blitz

The rule should not abide to high school students, they need it for various purposes and are nearing a grown age where they need them everywhere.

A phone ban is not the best solution because it won't actually stop students from bringing their phones to school. Since our school doesn't have lockers, students won't have a secure place to store their phones, so many will still keep them with them anyway. This makes the rule difficult to enforce. The policy is also confusing because it mentions electronic devices. Many students use school-issued iPads and other technology to complete assignments and participate in class.

Because no matter if this is so to happen children will be more likely to sneak there phones even more and end up losing more education then before

Tyler Wells

We need our phones it’s no life without it do schools not want good grades

BECAUSE WHY TF THEY TRYNA TAKE MY PHONE TF.

Aiden Jeter-Jackson

because i feel as though phones are very helpful on campus for a plethora of reasons and having a phone to contact parents/guardians in case of emergency is very important especially with more school shootings happening recently.. also i scored good on my gmas my first year getting my phone back (in 8th grade) and last year (9th grade) i did well in my HONORS language arts class and passed the final and in all of these tests they take your phone, having your phone during school is helpful!

thomas jordan

this is import to me because me as a kid i don’t really like talk to people i get very such and sometimes i use music to calm my anxiety down and relax myself im signing this petition because im a person who suffers with anxiety and music helps me a lot im not a person who uses my phone in class but in the hallways i dont like the loud noise and use music to calm myself down

Because it benefits our safety if we cannot rely on teachers and staff, also transportation and after school activities.

Taylor Nix

Banning phones should be the last thing on our minds. Recently, a teacher was caught having inappropriate interactions with students, yet our main concern seems to be about phones. Our priorities are misplaced.

Jaslin Taveras

Cause our phones can actually keep us safe rather than unsafe and it’s not even a big issue

We should be able to use our phones for saftey. Schools don’t do a good job with keeping us safe.

Jeremiah Shell

i feel like our phones should be needed for emergencys and just use in general

ashlyn frye

Schools are not safe enough to ban phones. Why would we erase the students way of contact when there are 230 estimated gunfire incidents in these schools per year, that’s not safe nor helpful

Jaylah Gatlin

As an highschool student, there is to many kids getting away with bringing inappropriate items to school. There are kids being SHOT at school and you guys are more worried about phones. We walk into school everyday not knowing if its going to be our last. our last day talking to our parents, last day seeing our loved ones. Atleast give them a chance to even text family and friends for emergencies specifically like this!

Rileigh Wilkins

I feel like dcss shouldn’t implement the law until it is required, because for safety, it allows students to have more fun during school, and it’s easier to communicate with other students and teachers.

Zion Menafee

Highschool graduate who believes phones are necessary tools for students to have at all times for work, safety, communication, etc .

Alexis Sparks

Students need a way to contact their parents/guardian if in any case there’s an emergency
