I completely agree with this. One is at school to learn, not to get your endorphin fix by scrolling endless things on internet

[TheBigRedPiG]

Its about time! We never had them and these kids will be just fine with them! LEARN!!!!

[NickTaylor-oe]

Sarah Huckabee Sanders is the best example of a fair and moderate leader.

[Patriot_Pete]

Way to Go Sarah!! Hope All Gov.s Follow Your Lead.

Another thing in schools that has been neglected because of technology is kids are no longer taught how to write in cursive and how to read it that is one of the things i looked forward to learning when i was a kid i have a 29 year old son who can neither write or read cursive and that makes me so sad and angry at the schools now a days

[GrannyGirl]

I wish all states and schools would adopt this.

About time !
I wasn’t allowed a calculator when I was in school . With a cell phone, you have access to a remote computer somewhere, AND THATS CHEATING !
I know that a cell phone is not a computer, but a device people can get access to one remotely . And I’m glad they took it away .
Now these lazy children have to think FOR THEMSELVES FOR A CHANGE . A victory china will never forget . We are taking our children back !

I love Sarah you're true American USA Treasure....

Kids already have the attention span of a gnat and they want to introduce more distractions?

[JescaML]

What they need is a jitterbug type phone where you can’t access the internet. They are way to obsessed with social media to learn anything and having a phone on you can lead a shooter to your location

Do something about AR medicaid system Gov

[daveminer]

Not all parents can afford cell phones for their kids. Democrat's rage about racial discrimination and won't say anything about the obvious FINANCIAL discrimination by allowing juveniles to cling to cell phones at school.

[jose-xjw]

THEY NEED ACCESS TO THE BOOKS REPUBLICAN BAN THEM

[Patrick-dncb]

Can one of Huckabee's handlers please tell her to keep still and stop fidgeting when she's up there in front of a public. She so obviously wants to be elsewhere, it's embarrassing!!!!
