The cell phones do not stay in the backpack. They don’t. Sorry, a fourteen year old does not have the capacity to ignore the absolute barrage of notifications they get.
Also - every class room I have ever taught in had a phone. The classroom next door has a phone. The lab cabinet has a phone. If it’s really that important that you have 24/7 access, get a dumb phone. They’re cheaper anyway.
That’s great that you work with kids, but a classroom Is an entirely separate context. I invite you to go substitute in a classroom to get a better understanding about how my job differs from your job.
Few if any of the classrooms I’ve been in have landlines, from my schooling to today, speaking of, I do work in classroom setting frequently with my school age clients, and none of that changes the opinion of other professionals who I interact with and what they do for their kids.
