Miah Cerrillo, another student, also trapped in the classrooms, made a 911 call from Khloie's phone and repeatedly inquired about the law enforcement response.
Can’t ask where the good guys with a gun are if you can’t dial out, checkmate children
- It depends entirely on how districts implement it since there wasn't clear guidelines other than "not in use in the classroom" which could mean just kept in their backpacks.
  Also, classrooms should generally have a wired phone for parent teacher communication and the teacher will still have their phone.
  
  I have never seen or heard of a landline in a classroom!
The next school shooter is going to love his pool of victims not having means of communication
- Don't worry, the armed drones are there to protect them... I wish I was fucking joking.
I mean allowing teachers to really enforce not having your phone out in class is good and a no brainer, but all I can think now is how the Uvalde police can be even more useless now
For those of you with kids, if they aren’t young enough to lose it you could probably get your kid a cellular smartwatch to wear if you are concerned about them being out of touch.
