Middle school students have few hang-ups over phone-free policy

Last year, Jack Taylor*s classmates at Preston Middle School used to stand in a circle between classes, heads down, and text each other. This year, with cell phones tucked away from the first bell until dismissal, more conversations are happening face-to-face. 

※I feel like kids are more interactive in class and raise their hands more. Last year, they would just stare at their phones,§ Taylor said.
