Hey there Mr. LongBeach! It’s not a problem in third grade IT IS A PROBLEM IN HIGH SCHOOL! Don’t you know that? They’re texting all kinds of illicit things all day thereby causing the need for such a policy to begin with! The boys – even pretty decent ones – have become entangled with girls and vice-versa! Kids know no limits! Period! Stop blaming all the good policies as cause for kids going off the Derech! Certainly the search should not be in a demeaning way! Either another administrator should be present or whatever. But the policy as as important today as ever especially in high schools. It’s an epidemic! KUDOS to the principal who stands up for values and principles! He or she is thus SAVING KIDS FROM GOING OFF THE DERECH, to a degree!
Cell phones should be banned and the school has every right to enforce the policy. Those for whom the poicy doesn’t match their taste can always find another school. Many Shuls also have the policy as do places of employment. B&H, for one, has a strictly enforced rule prohibiting the use of cell phones for employees: and that’s for adults! School age kids are not capable of adhering to any form of limit – by nature that’s the definition of teen-ager! Kol HaKavod to the principal who stands up for principles in this generation where ‘everything’s allowed!
Such a rachmanus! The ruthless Japanese are known to torture their prisoners! Boy have we learned a lesson from this episode!
