Quote, paraphase, and citation #4

Qutoe:  Cell phones have been used for calling in bomb threats to schools and, in many communities, cell calls cannot be traced by public safety officials. Student use of cell phones could potentially detonate a real bomb if one is actually on campus. Cell phone use by students can hamper rumor control and, in doing so, disrupt and delay effective public safety personnel response. Cell phone use by students can impede public safety response by accelerating parental response to the scene of an emergency during times when officials may be attempting to evacuate students to another site. Cell phone systems typically overload during a real major crisis (as they did during the Columbine tragedy, WTC attacks, etc.), and usage by a large number of students at once could add to the overload and knock out cell phone systems quicker than may normally occur. Since cell phones may be a backup communications tool for school administrators and crisis teams, widespread student use in a crisis could thus eliminate crisis team emergency communications tools in a very short period of critical time.

Paraphase: In the School Safety the author claims that cell phones anit safe in school. The reason they say that because if a student get mad they could try in call the school house in make bomb threats about the school. Teachers say that cell phones can hamper alot of things about the school. Thats why most teacher does want the students to have cell phones in school
