Alabama’s new cellphone ban policy requires school systems to develop their own methods for keeping phones out of classrooms.

Huntsville City Schools has told its students to keep them in their bags or deal with the consequences, which is pretty reasonable.

The school board’s biggest clown, Andrea Alvarez, has decided that this, and the plan to keep inappropriate material away from kids, is really just an attack on teachers. Fortunately, Alvarez isn’t that smart, so take anything she says and treat it with the respect it deserves.
