Do cell phones have a place in our schools?? This is a great question as many of you will be returning to school and start a new year in your school life. Do you think that students should be allowed to have their cell phones at school.

I personally believe that they should. Why?? Because along time ago at my school there was what students refer to as the "Great Flood" the entire school was flooded and I don't think that the amount of phones in the school could have been enough for the kids to use that time, and if it weren't for cell phones many of us would have not been able to call our parents to pick us up or we would have had to wait really long to use the phones in the office and other locations at school.

Yes, cell phones can be used for both negative and positive purposes. But they should be allowed with limitations, if possible for school that have lockers have the kids leave them in their lockers, or bring the phone and leave it at the office. Kids also need to be responsible, you have been allowed the phones don't abuse them, as soon as you enter the school on mornings simply turn off your phone and when you leave at the end of the day you can turn them back on, there is no need to have them on all day long. If you parents need you urgently they can call the school.

Cell Phones are a great way for kids with over protective parents to check up on their kids, and when a parent is running late the kid can call to see what's up.

As over here there is a debate about it ..
