http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2009/0217092samsung1.htmlStudent Arrested For Classroom TextingWisconsin girl, 14, nabbed after refusing to stop messagingFEBRUARY 17--A 14-year-old Wisconsin girl who refused to stop texting during a high school math class was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, according to police. The teenager was busted last Wednesday at Wauwatosa East High School after she ignored a teacher's demand that she cease texting. The girl, whose name we have redacted from the below Wauwatosa Police Department report, initially denied having a phone when confronted by a school security officer. However, the phone was located after the girl was frisked by a female cop. The Samsung Cricket, the police report noted, was recovered "from the buttocks area" of the teenager. The student was issued a criminal citation for disorderly conduct, which carried "a bail of $298," and had her phone confiscated. The girl, who was barred from school property for a week, is scheduled for an April 20 court appearance on the misdemeanor rap. (4 pages) |

It's a good thing that corporal punishment has been banned!!!
Can you imagine the possible complications if the young lass had been given a few good "swats" WHILE the cell phone was still concealed???
I'd bet that her cell phone insurance would NOT have covered THAT sort of damage!!!

Hey John no cell phones in school and we avoid these discipline problems instead of having to resort to extremes. I like the way some people like to blame the authorities or teacher rather than the student that is basically saying "kiss my....". John Just what would you do with a student that ignored you as a teacher and kept right on texting in the Middle of class?

If she didn't, I'm sure that the swats would have sent a message to little Miss Texter!!!
