Republican lawmakers are proposing blocking kids from accessing social media in schools that receive federal broadband subsidies.

    I also know of districts that tried this and just abandoned the idea because it was nigh-on impossible to enforce without suspending like 90% of the kids.

    That is what is happening. They suspended the Senior class president who was caught with a phone because they were waiting on a college scholarship call.

      I graduated about ten years ago so cellphones were popular, but not the same culture we have now. I got suspended because my mom called my phone which I had forgotten to turn off while it was in my locker before school started. Turns out I had forgotten a project so not only did I get suspended, I failed an assignment. Schools are great
