My daughters schools don't allow phones in the classroom. One daughter is in high school and the other is in middle school. They are able to keep them in their lockers during class.
There have been many a day where things have happened before and after school where my daughters' phones came in handy.
Each phone costs my wife and I $10 per month. It is worth it for the piece of mind that it give us.
As I put in an earlier post, I won't allow texting. I don't see the point. My daughters see their friends all day at school. IM them on our home computer as well as on Facebook.
