Hello all,

Recently, Forest Hills Public Schools has imposed a new phone policy this year to welcome us back. The rule now is there will be no phones on students during all hours of the day, and if you are caught with one, it will be confiscated until the end of the day, and repeat confiscations will result in harsher punishment. This new rule not only is annoying to students, it can and will be a pain/annoyance to parents because now to get in touch with their child for any reason, they have to call the school, the office has to find out where the child currently is, contact the teacher of the class they’re in, and have them come down to the office. Not only is this rule unnecessary and inconvenient, it also humiliates students in a way because last I checked we’re all almost adults (high schoolers) and teachers constantly say they’re going to treat us like adults but instead, the teachers are now treating us like juvenile inmates in a prison, and having our phone on us is like committing the most despicable crime imaginable.

Sign this Petition and make FHPS realize how ridiculous they’re being with this new policy...
