Cell phones are bad for school because they can be a distraction to other students and they can also distract the teacher when they are trying to teach you. You should never try to use a cellphone in school or you could get in big time trouble. It's just not worth it

Yes, they are distractions. Another reason is that if you are talking, texting, or playing on your phone, you are not learning. Just bring your PSP to school and be done with it.

There are a few reasons schools don't want students to have their phones out of on:
1.) It can be a distraction (Paying attention to your phone and texting instead
of paying attention to the teachers or staff)
2.) It can be a disruption if it goes off (distraction in a sense)
3.) Bomb threats (Cell phones can set them off, even through texts)
4.) And finally, Pranks (Calling or texting teachers pretending to be someone else, prank calling other students, possibilities are endless)
Why should cellphones be allowed in school and in the classroom? I actually meant (facts).
yes
depends o which school. prob not
No. Having in a bag and off is fine, but not for use in class or texting.
yes cause what if something went wrong and they could not get to a phone.
Yes, cellphones are allowed on passenger trains, unlike airplanes.
Yes , Normally people get cellphones when they go to middle school
yes because there could always be an emergency!
No; or to be more precise, it should be up to their parents as to whether children have cellphones, and up to the school as to whether they are permitted at school or not. Generations of people somehow managed to survive to the age of 18 without cellphones (or, indeed, phones of any sort), so obviously they aren't, strictly speaking, required.
They should not be allowed to do dangerous ventures in school.
Well ... Its better when you turn your phone either on silent or turn it completeley off. I wouldn't be caught dead if my phone went off during school hours.
Yes because there might be a very important emergency
