No Toys Rule
By Jenny1st

Clip to ScrapBook   
We have new rule in our school district this year-No Toys At School! It has been wonderful. The kids have one warning after the first warning the toy is taken and can only be returned when the parent comes to pick it up.
This started at the elementary level because kids were trading and/or stealing webkin codes and toys. I think that is brought back bad memories of pokemon trouble, etc... The admin decided just to avoid it all this year.
The only downside is that some kids have a really long bus ride and they were playing video games to pass the time....I guess they will have to do something crazy....like read a book and have a conversation with a friend...imagine! :lol
