Was very enforceable at our school. Teachers had eagle eyes, they simply took your phone and if you were lucky they gave it back to you after class, but most of the time you had to come pick it up after school, and if you were a multi-time offender, your parents had to come get it.
my kid once stuck his phone in his underwear and told them to go for it.
i was on his side for that one, he was not being disruptive, it was outside of class i believe.
And then he had his victory: a phone that smells like ass. 🤢
plus i get to laugh in the administrators face when they tell me
damn i love that kid
