No patience for cell phones in Hillsborough

May 15th, 2008 | Category: Florida Education Blog

Hillsborough is poised to crack down on students abusing cell phones. School officials want the palm-sized distractions off and out of sight during the school day.

The proposed rules on Tuesday’s School Board agenda outline strict consequences. whether students disobey, they would get one warning before having their cell

phones confiscated. Three strikes would outcome in detention. On the fourth offense, the student would face in-school suspension.

Sounds like sufficient to manufacture students faraway to be in Pinellas, where administrators at some campuses permit cell phone use after school and during lunch.
