should be banned!!!!

Answer 2

they should. with rhinestones and with little kaynes and andres attached! :]

Answer 3

You can bring them, but they have to be turned off and left in your locker (or at least out of sight if you're carrying it) during the day.  If there were a true emergency and your family needed to reach you during the middle of the day, they can call the office, so there's really no reason for you to keep it on, anyhow, but it makes sense you might need it after school, so they don't ban them entirely.

Answer 4

Noooooo!!!   I would hope not.  There are plenty of phones in every school, in the office..  Why does every kid need their own phone?  If there is an emergency, schools have been contacting parents by phone for many decades.  

How often are the phones brought to high school for "emergencies" used for that or for kids socializing.  About 99% to 1%?
