The American Federation of Teachers said in a report that social media apps have had a negative effect on classrooms.

The nation’s second-largest teachers union said Thursday it was losing patience with social media apps that it says are contributing to mental health problems and misbehavior in classrooms nationwide, draining time and money from teachers and school systems.

    I agree. Just have a designated box or place for the students to leave their phones in each classroom. They can grab them in an emergency or on their way to lunch.

      the only people that’s stopping are the honest ones and those who only have access to one(or none) phone. It’ll just add on the teachers already heavy load. I don’t think it’s such a great idea turning school into basic military training.
