Ahhhh, the esteemed wood chipper. Might take a bit of getting used to but, diligently applied, it would solve a lot of problems. The scene in Fargo is a sacred text.

I have no problem with this policy in theory, but I do have some practical issues. How do you make sure each kid gets the right phone back at the end of the day?

These things can cost over 100 bucks very easy, and many of them look exactly alike. You'd have to have an individual labeled baggie for each phone and the kid would have to show ID to prove ownership of the phone. That's a lot of administrative work involving lots of people. And a lot of time spent at the opening and end of the day.

You can't just say don't bring phones to school because kids may need to contact someone at the end of the day. Or maybe you CAN say just don't bring phones to school.
