My students need to focus to learn Trigonometry, Precalculus, and AP Calculus. However, their phones are a HUGE distraction. It's difficult to keep 30 kids from hiding their phones and secretly texting or sending a quick Snap. Each time they check their phone, they miss something that was said and fall behind. These cell phone lockers will help students to be free from the distraction of their phones so that class time is spent focusing and learning the content. I'm hoping that the cell phone lockers will increase student knowledge and classroom participation.
