transitions: culture/rapport

My transitions from elementary to high school have been exciting its way different then obviously but just the kids in general there older and have bigger attitudes, and phones and devices are such a huge problem here at Marion they have rules setup to keep kids off the phone but kids will freak out if you push them to that point. the culture here is fantastic but again while trying to teach everyone just gravitates to trying to get on phone. i believe that the weight room i work in is fantastic because there not aloud on there phones.  overall great school just a cellular device problem and i think that nation wide.

I can't imagine any reason why students would need their phone during PE, maybe they can enforce a leaving phones in the locker room? I know that was the rule when I was in high school at LM.
