SCHENECTADY — Schenectady students better put away those smart phones.
The Board of Education has approved a new electronics policy permitting high school students to use electronic devices only before and after the regular school day, during lunchtime and as directed by a teacher for an educational purpose.
Students in kindergarten through eighth grade may have electronic devices on their person but during the school day they must be turned off and out of sight in backpacks, purses or lockers.
In addition to cellphones, the policy also covers personal digital assistants, handheld video games, iPads or any future technology that can be used to capture and store images and surf the Internet.........................>>>>.........................>>>>.......................http://www.dailygazette.com/news/2011/aug/24/0824_electronics/

I always thought that was the policy, there is no need to use cellphones between or during classes anyway.

they seem to think they are the Jersey Shore kids who dont attend any kind of school or have jobs but are sooooooo important......
