More schools across the country are requiring students to lock away phones during school hours. CBS News' Meg Oliver spent the day at a high school in Newburgh, New York, to see how going phone-free has transformed the school experience. She also sat down with a renowned social psychologist who has been researching the connection between phone use and declining mental health, calling it "worse than vaping."

I was in HS between 06-2010…we were allowed to have our phones on us, but if we had them out during class they would get taken to the dean and your parents had to come pick it up.

@wolfensteinman7978 8 месяцев назад

@@JessicaJmoneydepending on how the school was structured it could be the dean. When I was in college I learned about some high schools that were structured like colleges they were for self driven kids that were academically gifted in a very good way. This place is like the Harvard if middle schools. It is privately owned. Anyways depending on the school they could have many deans so each child gets more attention. But to normal schools they will only have One principal then when you get into college they are Dean.

@ethan-qm8gu 8 месяцев назад

It not phones but the students work ethic and how they learn. I am on my phone a lot in school (I’m a senior in high school) many teachers make us put away in our pockets and no correlation between phone use and grades. If a student is failing a class it not the phone it’s the student. A phone can be a distraction but students can have a phone and do work. I do it my other classmates do it so it’s not the phones but how the student was raised and how they treat school. I know a super smart girl who was always faced down on her phone and she made the honor roll for both quarters (I made for the first quarter I got a c in a class). The difference between her and others is she know what she’s doing and to do work before going on the phone. So in a normal American school if you take the phones away they’ll just talk, doodle and procrastinate. So you want to see better grades then teach your kids to pay attention and to have self control.

This makes sense for middle schoolers, but if you’re 17 and need your phone to be taken away from you in order to not be distracted by it, then you need to develop the self control to turn it of and/or not be distracted by it without someone needing to take it from you.

As someone who literally broke her arm in school and my teacher wouldn’t let me go to the nurse (and this was back in 2008) I was glad for my flip phone. Yes, that teacher did get in trouble, and yes I was able to get to the orthopedist because I had a cell phone. In an ideal world, we would be able to trust that nothing would go wrong and that we wouldn’t need cell phones, but they are also there for emergencies. All we need is god forbid something horrible happening in one of these schools and these kids not being able to contact their relatives for this to all blow up in their faces. Sadly, we live in times where people are insane and schools are targets. I am very much against this.
