[QUOTE="beast1989, post: 2807883, member: 15449"] I realize I didn't answer your questions. Since I'm assuming we kind of agree that this doesn't quite meet the threshold of needing a police officer, I don't think he should have done much more beyond being verbal. After ordering the child to hand over the phone I think he could have explained that if they were in the real world he would have been handing that kid her ass right about now, but since they are not, that she has TWO options. She can walk to the office out of her own volition and only receive a two day detention or have the principal come to her desk to lay out the details of the final resolution. The principal would then explain that the shyt show (i.e. them asking her to leave the room and relinquish her phone) is over and that she has just earned a suspension and probation. After that point the other students don't need anymore of their classroom time taken away, so class should have continued without further delays. The rest of the incident could have been handled after school with the parents/guardian. Consequences that I thought of on the fly just now are a 5 day suspension (the 2-day detention initially offered by the officer for the phone would now be a 2-day suspension and then an additional 3 days for refusing to follow instructions and disrupting the class). Furthermore, explain that she will be on a short leash for as long as she goes to that school by placing her on probation. For the rest of that year ANY minor offense will warrant a one day suspension at minimum and any major offense or incident involving a cell phone in class will be an automatic expulsion. The end.
