""And it's not a requirement to have a cell phone, but for students who don't have one, teachers provide laptops and some tablets so all students can participate.""

I'm sure that's not going to make the poor kids feel to good when everyone has to now know they are poor.
And they wonder why suicide is on the rise for kids.

Wow, I'm glad my son is out of high school and in college. because we could never afford to buy those things when he was in high school. Now he has a cell phone and laptop (he bought from money he made on his part time job). I hear him talk about that tablet thing, I don't know what it is, but I've heard him talking to his friends about it.

The dumbing down of the American students by lazy union teachers paid by our tax money.

I hate to agree with you, but I think you hit a major bullseye with that post. Everyone will be doing more picture taking and less teaching and learning.

When I was a kid, it was bad enough not having the expensive sneakers or clothing, but now I would need an expensive iPhone with unlimited data and minutes?

Schools should have school uniforms and no personal phones, tablets or laptops.

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Aquarius

You won't like it if you feel your wings are being clipped today. You want to do something in particular, only to discover that someone is objecting to your plans or that circumstances beyond your control are standing in your way. Although your instincts tell you to throw a tantrum to get your point across, you must ask yourself what this will achieve, and whether it will actually be self-defeating.
