St. Croix Central High School seems to be technology friendly in more than one aspect; the cell phones friendliness of the school is what took me, personally, by surprise.
My copperating teacher, Tricia Rogers, thinks that cell phones can be used to the students’ and teachers’ advantage in the classroom. Most of the studnets in the classroom have their cell phones in their pockets. Tricia was not opposed to them using their cell phones as a resource during projects (like scavenger hunts) or during homework time.
The most interesting observation I made about this cell phone topic is the usage by the students; they don’t try to hide their cell phones from teachers or other staff. Because St. Croix Central does not frown upon cell phones usage in general, the students feel comfortable having them and faculty doesn’t worry about the kids abusing them.
