should we be able to use lockers in school?

of course...why wouldn't you be allowed to?  if it's because they think you can hide a weapon or drugs couldn't you just put it in your backpack?  so i don't really see the other side of the argument.  why would they want sts carrying a load of stuff around them to each class?  teachers are always complaining how they can't walk up and down the aisles because they trip on backpacks - so if they get rid of your lockers aren't you just going to have more crap in the aisles?  and also if you can't have a locker then you would have to lug your books home every night whether you need them or not.  and then there is a higher chance of you forgetting it or ruining it.  so the solution of that would be to have an in class text book and an out of class text book whick would just cost the school more money.  so i guess what i'm saying is i don't really see any positives to not having a locker.

As much as teachers and parents think these things are a distraction in school, the ban makes it worse. Our school doesn't let us have anything electronic during the course of the school day. I think this is completely wrong. Here's some things that I think are going to happen in the future.\n\n-Cell phones can be used in school (hallways and stuff), but when in class are turned off and on the desk.\n-iPods, cell phones and other electronic stuff can be used in the cafeteria during study and lunch periods.\n\nI think that mostly the parents and teachers are thinking that the cell phones and other electronic devices can help you cheat in school, which they can. It is going to take a while before schools will become more liberal with the electronic usage in school.

Even if it is a private pool, it must be kept up proper standards so it is safe for all to use.   If it is not up to code, if anything goes wrong, you will find the school being sued.   And if you had an accident at a school swimming pool, contact a solicitor and find out where you stand!

SCHOOLS NEED MORE RIGHTS......\nTHEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO EXPELL KIDS FOR ANY BEHAVIOR THAT IS INAPPROPRIATE..... BULLYING INCLUDED...  SCHOOL IS FOR LEARNING NOT SOCIALIZING

Hmm. Well, there are not too many reasons why it would be good not to have them.\nHowever, from a legal stand point, a school could feasibly leave themselves open for litigation. By having the cameras there, one has a false sense of security that someone is 'keeping an eye' on them. \nI have to say that there are more reasons to bring them into the schools. Especially if there is a history of violence (fights, drugs, ganges, etc.) in the school. In many instances, it would not be a 'He said, She said'. There would be photographic evidence to back up a claim.\n\n--- And, this is not an invasion of privacy if the cameras are in public places. There is no expectation of privacy in any place other than a bathroom. \nLikewise, minors have very limited rights as far as law is considered. If there is an issue, a parent can petition their removal. But, as I stated above, any rational parent would want this added security measure.

In UK you have to have at least two members of staff (suggest you and a senior member) and the (pupil) owners of any bags/desks etc. present.  Rather than touch pupils' bags etc. yourself, ask the pupil to show you everything inside his/her bag.

Definitely not.\nIt would be so incredibly boring in school.\nAnd that argument that it will reduce popularity differences - total bull. By the time you're in high/middle school, you *know* who you want to hang out with.

most public high schools have cameras. They can be in the hallways, classrooms, food lines, gyms, bascily anywhere expect the bathroom and locker room.\n\nSome schools have cameras outside too.

As far as I can think, there is no pro for cell phone during school.  Having them and turning them on are two different categories.\n\nI have no problem with carrying them, but most kids can't follow rules, due to the mind set that rules don't apply to them because they were made without their consent??!!\n\nCons:The usual, talking/texting during class, passing information or texting qnswers during test/quizzes. \n\nIf the kids would just be trustworthy, and not try to get around rules or try  to outsmart others, they would be surprised how much less rules there would have to be.  But as long as there are rule busters, there will be rule makers.

You have to look at school as a big game.  If you play the game, you get out with few scratches.  Do what they want and remind yourself of the good times you'll have when you're out of their class.  I had a friend who made voodoo dolls and kept them in her locker, but I don't suggest that route.  :P

I think it's a good idea. That way, everyone at the school is on the same playing field...at least appearance-wise. Those students who are less fortunate and don't have much money to buy clothes or have a lot of clothes don't have to worry about what their going to wear. I think it helps self-esteem and allows them to concentrate more on schoolwork.

It depends the school policy. You can ask your teacher or maybe your principle, then..

well I think a lot of it depends on who sees the whats on camera, and where exactly they point. if you think about it lunch room, classrooms, and hallways are really public and fairly high traffic areas. even if there where no camera's around I think most people would figure out that you don't do stuff there you don't want everyone else seeing as there is a fairly good chance of them walking through or by that spot.  it would be another matter if they where in bathrooms or locker rooms or places that are supposed to be more private. but for places where there is usually a crowd of people I don't see how a camera added to the mix is going to reveal anything that wouldn't normally be found out if they had the staff out wondering the building more.
