Florida middle school teacher Lisa Rodriguez-Davis sounded off on 'The Story' after Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law prohibiting cell phone use by students in school.
An Orlando-area middle school teacher who went viral for parody TikToks of parents upset their children are having their phones confiscated under a new Florida law told FOX News it is refreshing to see children conversing with each other once again. After Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill sponsored by State Rep.
When asked on 'The Story' what the punishment is for students who violate the law, Rodriguez-Davis said that at this juncture, the reprimand is the confiscation of the device. The phone would then be stored in the administrative office at the school for the student or parent to retrieve later. Students are allowed phones in their backpack turned off and inaccessible, according to the educator.

She noted that the current environment is a lot closer to how previous generations and early millennials grew up – without the influence or distraction of digital devices. Another benefit has been an observed reduction in bullying, as students aren't taking and disseminating pictures of each other. 'I don't think they realize it. But actually, I've talked to several students and they're they're really actually happy about it,' said Rodriguez-Davis. The teacher added that when she is asked by students about the policy, she underlines that it lets them make more friends and makes people less nervous around others.
