You have to give them back to the student or give them to the headmaster before you leave. It's irritating, I know, but there's a principle behind the return: you can't keep what does not belong to you.

It's because, ummm, like, only the government can steal things legally. And because they can; they do! C'mon man, you're from Florida! You should know these things.
Oh, and headmasters can steal because they have no principals here!

I am assuming that you have a conscience, Jeff. Come on, man. I understand how you feel. I go through it myself with university students. I always give the phones back.
I am considering buying a cell phone jammer from an outfit in Shanghai. It won't do any good for the gamesters, but it'll stop the messaging. |

I've never had a problem, honestly. I just keep an eye on the students, and if I see a kid looking down, both hands below the desk, I just quietly cirlce behind him/her ... and smile, with my arm outstretched. I give the phone back after class, and then its never a problem again
Caveat .. I have done most of my teaching at unis. |
