The Best Field Trips for Fourth Graders (In Person and Virtual)

Look, touch, listen, learn.

Fourth grade field trips

Of all the grades I taught, fourth grade will forever be my favorite. And I took those kids on some cool field trips. We milked cows at the pioneer museum, went to the Mount St. Helens Visitor Center, and toured our historic downtown. The independence of 9- and 10-year-olds, coupled with grade-level focus on their state, makes for lots of fantastic options for fourth grade field trips.

Not all of these trips will be possible everywhere, but keep in mind any local treasures that are unique to your area. And when you can’t manage a trip—for whatever reason—try our virtual fourth grade field trips below.

In-Person Fourth Grade Field Trips

1. radio station.

The local radio station is a great place for an educational tour. Fourth graders can learn about everything from radio frequencies to what a DJ does to how radio production equipment works. If they’re lucky, they’ll get to record a spot.

2. State History Museum

Fourth grade social studies is all about the state, so if your state history museum is local to you, be sure to check it out with your class. Look for kid-friendly interactive exhibits and special educational programs, like the Washington State History Museum’s History Lab.

3. Animal Shelter

animal shelter

By middle childhood, most children have made significant social-emotional growth and are capable of true empathy. A visit to the local animal shelter is a wonderful opportunity for some humane education, from the basics of animal care to the serious problem of pet overpopulation.

4. State Historic Site

Shore up the study of your state with a visit to a local site that’s important to its history. It could be a Native American heritage site, a statue or birthplace of a historical figure, an old fort or mission, or the site of a significant event like a Civil War battle.

5. Concert Hall

At a concert hall, fourth graders can take in any number of cultural experiences, from a concert by a symphony orchestra to a jazz show to a classical ballet performance. In fact, fourth grade is the perfect time to cultivate an appreciation for the arts.

6. State Park

Beach State park - fourth grade field trips

There’s perhaps no better way to highlight what’s amazing about your state than a visit to a state park. Many offer school group programs, including ecology, orienteering, and STEM. Our favorite, however, has to be Beachcombing 101.

7. Military Base

Most military installations are open to public visits. Many even have regularly scheduled tours as well as their own on-site military museums. There’s a lot of variety depending on the branch, but our favorite is a cavalry detachment’s horse show.

8. State Capitol

If it’s a reasonable possibility, take your fourth graders to visit the state capitol. These buildings are an impressive sight, but they also provide students with a window into state government and history. Also, consider adding on a tour of the governor’s mansion!

9. Geographical Feature

Outdoor landscape - fourth grade field trips

Whatever your location, you likely have a landform (for example: mountain, canyon, cave, butte) or body of water (ocean, river, pond, wetland) that you can visit to show your fourth graders the rock or water cycle in action.

10. Nature Center

A nature center is a perfect place for kids to learn about plants and wildlife that are native to their state. Activities vary by location but might include a nature hike or live animal presentation.

Virtual Fourth Grade Field Trips

1. amazon robotics fulfillment center tour.

Amazon Fulfillment Center Tech Tours with photo of warehouse, Amazon boxes on conveyer belt, and Amazon worker wearing safety vest.

Ever wonder how Amazon delivers packages at lightning speed? Take your fourth graders on a 45-minute behind-the-scenes tour of an Amazon fulfillment center to see how computer science, engineering, and real people work together to make the magic happen. During this interactive virtual field trip, students meet Amazon engineers who explain concepts like algorithms and machine learning. It’s aligned to NGSS, CSTA, and ISTE standards, and there’s also a Teacher Toolkit that includes a facilitation guide plus student worksheets, certificates, and extension learning opportunities. (Hint: If you like this virtual field trip, look for the release of more Amazon Future Engineer Tech Tours. The next one, Space Tour, will be available in October 2022.)

Check out the awesome polar bear cam at the Kansas City Zoo! Plus, Smithsonian’s National Zoo  has a Giant Panda Cam. Check out our full list of virtual zoo options here!

3. Slime in Space

Nickelodeon teamed up with two astronauts on the International Space Station to demonstrate how slime reacts to microgravity and had kids reproduce those same demonstrations back here on Earth. It makes for an amazing 15-minute virtual field trip!

4. Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon Virtual Tour - fourth grade field trips

This virtual experience  of George Washington’s home is incredibly well done. Enter the different buildings—from the opulent mansion to the chilling slave quarters—and click on different items for video and text explanations.

5. Planetarium

Through Stellarium Web , kids can explore over 60,000 stars, locate planets, and watch sunrises and solar eclipses. If you enter your location, you can see all the constellations that are visible in the night sky in your corner of the world.

6. Volcanoes

Volcano - fourth grade field trips

The U.S. Geological Survey monitors volcanoes in the United States. Their interactive map  allows you to learn about any volcano in the country.

7. Nature Lab

The Nature Conservancy offers 11 virtual field trips . For example, students can explore a coastal rain forest from a virtual canoe or unlock the secrets of coral reefs in the Dominican Republic. Each video is about 45 minutes long.

8. The White House

White House Virtual Tour

For a look inside the iconic building, check out the  360° tour  of some of the most historic rooms of the People’s House, from the Situation Room to the Oval Office. Examine each room and check out the contents up close.

9. Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone - fourth grade field trips

The first established national park and popular vacation destination is now accessible to virtual travelers. The interactive maps are a great way to see the Mammoth Hot Springs and Mud Volcano, but we think kids will be psyched about the Old Faithful Geyser livestream .

10. The Great Lakes

This virtual field trip from Great Lakes Now has three components: coastal wetlands, algae, and lake sturgeon. Each video is a quick five minutes.

Landscape on planet Mars, scenic desert scene on the red planet

No, really! You can absolutely “go” to the red planet. With  Access Mars , you can see the actual surface of Mars, recorded by NASA’s Curiosity rover. Trust us—don’t skip the intro. And if your kids like that, check out this 4K tour of the moon .

12. Son Doong Cave

National Geographic lets you explore the world’s largest cave, located in Vietnam. Use the  interactive map  to enjoy the fully immersive experience (sound on!).

13. Ellis Island

Map of Ellis Island Virtual Field Trip

This  interactive tour of Ellis Island lets students explore places like the Baggage Room and the Stairs of Separation through short stories, historical photographs, videos, and audio clips. Students can also hear the stories of real kids who recently immigrated to the United States and watch a 30-minute movie that includes a Q&A with National Park Service Rangers who explain what coming to America was like for many immigrants.

“My trip to New York City was the best experience of my life. Learning about the true stories of the people that died at the 911 Memorial was something I will never forget. We also had a great time getting our picture taken in Times Square at night after our Broadway play.”

“Thank you very much for the excellent trip. New York City is like an entire different world for my students from Kentucky. We are so thankful that your support staff was once again wonderful, very accommodating and willing to help out with anything we needed.”

Girls walking on the Brooklyn Bridge

“Our New York City tour was absolutely amazing. Our students had such a great time, learned a great deal in so many disciplines and really expanded their horizons. Every student at some point needs to tour New York- the sights, the sounds, just the feel and the energy. Speaking of which our Tour Guide really gave an insider tour that only a true New Yorker could give. We can’t wait to take next year’s class!”

“Thank you for another outstanding tour of New York City. We would like to thank you again for all your help with putting together such an amazing trip for the kids. Our tour guide was so extremely knowledgeable and flexible and really provided a wealth of learning opportunities. Our on-site coordinator made our trip worry-free. To making sure breakfast was ready for the kids to ensuring the rooms were taken care when there were any issues and picking up the tickets ahead of us so we did not have to wait in line. Finally, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention our guard each evening. We were in a beautiful hotel in a great area. However, it was still very comforting to know we had someone watching our floor while we slept.”

PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

Honor Flight Network

The men and women who’ve served their country transform their history into personal connection for students traveling to Washington, D.C. on class trips. The Honor Flight Network is dedicated to transporting America’s veterans to the country’s capital to see the memorials for wars in which they fought. While visiting sites such as the World War II Memorial on the National Mall, students celebrate and applaud servicemen and women flown in from across the country. Then, as veterans take time for introductions and questions, students establish bonds with another generation and gain new perspectives on what they’ve learned in their classrooms.

Museum Manners

3rd Grade Program - Pioneers We cover the following school standards:

Standard: 3.H.1.1 Demonstrate knowledge of the obstacles and successes of the early settlers and in creating communities.

Oceti Sakowin Essential Understandings and Connectors 6: SOVEREIGNTY & TREATIES Federal policies and treaties put into place throughout American history have affected Oceti Sakowin people adversely. Tribes as sovereign nations have the authority to enter into government to government relationships. Currently, the relationship between each tribe, their state(s), and the federal government is not the same for each tribe.

For third grade, we do an activity called "Load Your Wagon: An Old West Adventure." Please note that we are updating this activity in Fall 2023 and are not currently offering it.

  • Students work in small groups and use problem-solving skills to pack their wagon for the trip out west.
  • Students use critical thinking and cooperative learning, digging deeper into the big question - what obstacles and successes did people face during the Westward Expansion?

4th Grade Program - Lakota We cover the following school standards:

Oceti Sakowin Essential Understandings and Connectors 1: LANDS & ENVIRONMENT  The original land base and natural resources of the Oceti Sakowin were under communal stewardship prior to immigrant settlement. Oceti Sakowin have a distinct and unique interrelationship with the environment that is essential to South Dakota.

  Oceti Sakowin Essential Understandings and Connectors  2: IDENTITY & RESILIENCY  There is variety and resiliency among individuals within the Oceti Sakowin Oyate (people) as identity is developed, defined and redefined by entities, by organization, and by people. A continuum of tribal identity, unique to each individual, ranges from assimilated to traditional lifestyle. There is no “generic American Indian.”

For fourth grade, we teach about Lakota culture.  

  • Students get a first-hand look at the tools and methods historically used by the Oceti Sakowin.
  • This is an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of culturally significant objects of study, like the bison.
  • Students also use creative thinking to craft art that tells a story, known as ledger art.

Just wanted to let everyone know how great it was to work with Four Winds Tours and especially Rishi Kumar. We took 40 high school seniors to Boston, MA on a college tour trip in March 2023. We went to see Northeastern University; Boston University and Harvard. The tours were very informative and everything was planned perfectly. Our driver was exceptional and tuned into the students with what they would like as far as music and sights. His name was Fun, and he definitely was. He was so accommodating and friendly, that it was like he was on the trip … --Louise B Leon M.

Districts [ edit ]

The city is divided by the River Oka into two major parts: the Upper city ( Verkhnyaya or Nagornaya chast ) on the hilly right side and the Lower city ( Nizhnyaya or Zarechnaya chast — what literally means "the part over the river") on the left bank of the river. The Upper city is the old historical part of Nizhny Novgorod, whereas the Lower city is larger, newer and consists of more industrial districts.

Understand [ edit ]

Map

History [ edit ]

The city was founded by Grand Duke George II of Russia in 1221 at the confluence of two most important rivers of his principality, the Volga and the Oka. Its name literally means Newtown the Lower , to distinguish it from the older Novgorod . A major stronghold for border protection, Nizhny Novgorod fortress took advantage of a natural moat formed by the two rivers.

Along with Moscow and Tver, Nizhny Novgorod was among several newly founded towns that escaped Mongol devastation on account of its insignificance and grew up into important centers of Russian political life during the period of Tatar yoke. For a short period of time it was the capital of the Suzdal Principality and competed with Moscow for the power in the region. However the competition with Moscow was lost and in 1392 the city was incorporated into Muscovy. Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin was built in 1508-1511 (under supervision of the Italian fortress engineers) and became one of the strongest Russian citadels. There is a legend saying that the project was initially developed with participation of Leonardo da Vinci. However there is no documented proof of Leonardo's work for that project, the only thing the legend is based on is the striking resemblance of Leonardo's sketches and the actual Kremlin schemes. The fortress was strong enough to withstand Tatar sieges in 1520 and 1536.

In 1612, the so-called national militia , gathered by a local merchant Kuzma Minin and commanded by Knyaz Dmitry Pozharsky expelled the Polish troops from Moscow, thus putting an end to the Time of Troubles and establishing the rule of the Romanov dynasty.

In 1817, the Makaryev Monastery Fair, one of the liveliest in the world the 16th-18th centuries, was transferred to Nizhny Novgorod, which thereupon started to attract numerous visitors and by the mid-19th century it turned Nizhny Novgorod into trade capital of the Russian Empire.

Under the Soviet period, the trade connections of the city were abandoned and Nizhny Novgorod became an important industrial centre instead. During the communist time the city was closed to foreigners to safeguard the security of Soviet military research. The physicist and the Nobel laureate Andrei Sakharov was exiled there during 1980-1986 to limit his contacts with foreigners.

Climate [ edit ]

The climate in the region is humid continental and it is similar to the climate in Moscow , although colder in winter, which lasts from late November until late March with a permanent snow cover.

By car [ edit ]

Nizhny Novgorod is situated on the M7/E30 road. The road is in decent condition, although with traffic it can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours to drive to/from Moscow .

By boat [ edit ]

Turflot [dead link] , Infoflot , and many other companies operate multi-day river cruises down the Volga from early May to the end of September.

Many companies operate passenger boat service between Moscow and Astrakhan , with stops at most cities along the Volga River.

Get around [ edit ]

By foot [ edit ].

The city centre is compact and walkable. However, there are many inclines or steps from the river banks. The bridges are not pedestrian friendly since the sidewalk is very narrow and cars drive extremely fast close to the pedestrians.

By city rail [ edit ]

The City Rail connects areas where there are no metro lines. Connects with the subway at the Moscow railway station. It has 2 lines: Sormovskaya and Priokskaya. The fare by train costs 28 rubles. According to the Citicard Transport Card, the fare is 26 rubles. Also by train you can get to the nearest suburb, or transfer to suburban trains to Dzerzhinsk, Bor, Semenov or Arzamas.

By bus and trolleybus [ edit ]

school tours 4th class

As of May 2017 in each district of the city there are several city bus routes. The number of trolleybus routes is much less. In one district of the city there are 1-2 trolleybus routes. Trolleybus routes are completely absent in the Leninsky city district. It is worth noting that trolleybuses do not connect the Lower City to the Upper. This is because the trolleybuses do not have enough power to climb the mountain.

The trolleybus network is divided into 3 parts:

  • The upper trolleybus network (it unites all three districts - Nizhegorodsky, Sovetsky and Prioksky) with a turning circle on the Minin Square, near the Kremlin.
  • The lower trolleybus network (connects Kanavinsky, Moskovsky and Sormovsky districts)
  • The Avtozavod trolleybus network (connects all the distant sleeping microdistricts among themselves)

By tram [ edit ]

Throughout the city, land trams run. The longest route of all is 417. It connects the outskirts of Avtozavodsky district with the Moskovsky Rail Terminal. The journey takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes. The route passes through the sleeping areas (approximately 75% of the way). Also in remote neighborhoods there are routes of several more trams, but in most cases, they are in the Upper City. By the way, you can reach there by tram 27 or 10 directly from the Moscow railway station.

By marshrutka [ edit ]

Marshrutkas do not stop at every stop. To indicate your intention to exit a marshrutka, press a button and to indicate your intention to enter a marshrutka en-route, you need to wave your hand.

By bicycle [ edit ]

Nizhny Novgorod has not very developed bicycle infrastructure. Special bike paths exist only on the Upper-Volga and Lower-Volga embankments and on Rozhdestvenskaya Street.

The upper city is very hilly and full of steep inclines and even many locals will get off their bicycles and push their bikes up the hill by foot. Drivers can be reckless and pose a danger to cyclists. The roads can also be icy during the winter. City cyclists solve this problem by replacing summer tires with winter tires.

Also, in 2017 the implementation of a new integrated transport scheme of the city began. It provides for a large number of bicycle paths in the Upper City (including on Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street) and in the Lower City.

  • Alexander Pushkin (at the entrance to the Theatre of Opera and Ballet)

  • A big variety of other churches and convents.

All quarterfinals, semifinals and championship games will be televised live on 45TV, the League’s longtime broadcast partner.

Here is a look at the two classes that will play for championships this week:

Alexandria was third in the Central Lakes Conference, but blazed a path to the state tournament by winning the Section 6A crown, outscoring three opponents, 24-1.

Previewing the IHSA Class 3A high school basketball state finals

It’s the catholic league vs. central illinois in two semifinal matchups on friday..

Mount Carmel's Grant Best (3) shoots the ball over St. Patrick during the IHSA 3A Supersectional game at UIC.

Mount Carmel’s Grant Best (3) shoots the ball over St. Patrick during the IHSA 3A supersectional game at UIC.

Kirsten Stickney/For the Sun-Times

Mount Carmel guard Noah Mister began the season as a promising sophomore. He flashed potential in his freshman year at Kenwood as a small guard who came off the bench and scored in some big moments.

This season, he has developed into a reliable, dynamic point guard for the Caravan. That was all on display in the supersectional victory Monday against St. Patrick.

Mister didn’t shoot well, but his game is well-rounded and not dependent on scoring. He had eight assists and four steals and held Mount Carmel (31-5) together in the crucial moments.

The Caravan were expected to be good this season, but Mister’s emergence at the position of greatest need turned them into a state-title contender.

‘‘He’s maturing,’’ Mount Carmel senior Angelo Ciaravino said. ‘‘We’ve worked so hard to get him where he needs to be. It hasn’t been a struggle. He knows we are there for him, and he continues to step up every game.’’

Ciaravino, a Northwestern recruit, is one of the star attractions of the state finals. The Caravan lack depth, but they don’t have a weak spot in their starting lineup.

Coach Phil Segroves hopes Lee Marks, a 6-5 senior, will play. He has been out since Feb. 6 with an elbow injury.

‘‘He’s ready to push it, and we’ve had a blessing from his doctor and his parents,’’ Segroves said. ‘‘It will be based on pain. To have his presence on the floor is a big deal. Lee Marks is better with an arm and a half than most people are with two.’’

Mount Zion (35-1) is Mount Carmel’s opponent in the Class 3A state semifinals at 9:30 a.m. Friday in Champaign.

The Braves start a sophomore, three juniors and a senior. They haven’t played a Chicago-area opponent, but their three-point defeat at Metamora is a close loss that proves they’re a quality team.

Mount Zion coach Dale Schuring says his team ‘‘likes to get out and go.’’

Junior guard Lyncoln Koester averages 16 points, and 6-7 sophomore JC Anderson averages 15 points and nine rebounds.

‘‘He’s a very skilled post player,’’ Schuring said. ‘‘He has been absolutely dominant at times and carried us [in the fourth quarter of the supersectional victory Monday] against Centralia.’’

G Sam Priscilla, 5-11, Jr. G Lyncoln Koester, 6-3, Jr. G Brayden Trimble, 6-2, Jr. F Grant McAtee, 6-4 Sr. F JC Anderson, 6-7, So.

DePaul Prep vs. Peoria Richwoods, 11:15 a.m. Friday

The Rams returned a lot from the team that won Class 2A last season, but they have had to fight through significant injuries all season.

They play a unique defensive style in which every defender switches, something that has given opponents problems.

DePaul Prep’s losses were against Normal and Homewood-Flossmoor, two teams in the Class 4A state finals.

Point guard Makai Kvamme is a rock, and senior PJ Chambers and brother AJ, a sophomore, are talented scorers. Jaylan McElroy, a 6-7 senior making his third appearance at the state finals, is a solid rim protector and overall difference-maker.

McElroy and 6-6 sophomore Rashaun Porter will have their hands full with 6-10 Rutgers recruit Lathan Sommerville, who might be the best player in the state finals.

Sommerville averaged 24.6 points and 12.3 rebounds and outplayed Sun-Times Player of the Year Morez Johnson in Richwoods’ supersectional victory Monday against Thornton, finishing with 32 points and 12 rebounds.

‘‘Sommerville has been tremendous,’’ Richwoods coach William Smith said. ‘‘And we are clicking on all cylinders and playing well.’’

College visits

Often the first step a student can take to determine whether a college is the right fit is visiting its campus. While walking tours led by current students are common, many schools offer several other ways to explore and learn about campus, including through self-guided and virtual tours or open houses and overnight stays. Here's a look at eight different types of campus visits – which aren't always available at every school – that a student may encounter during their college search process.

  • Walking tours

Most colleges offer at least a guided walking tour led by current students. Prior to the tour – which takes prospective students and their families to various academic buildings, dining halls and dormitories across campus – there's usually a short information session to provide an overview of the school and its admissions process . These types of campus visits are typically offered on weekdays and most Saturdays, and may require advance registration because space is often limited.

  • Virtual tours

While college tours are free, students and their families often have to factor in travel expenses, including gas, airplane tickets and hotel stays. But through virtual tours – which became more popular as a result of the coronavirus pandemic – students can still get a feel for a campus without leaving their bedroom. Virtual tours can be interactive, allowing students to "walk" around campus by clicking arrows, or are videos led by students or faculty members on bikes, skateboards, golf carts or other modes of transportation.

Student texting on college campus

  • Self-guided tours

For students looking to explore a campus at their own pace, many colleges offer self-guided walking or drive-through tours. While some schools post information booklets on their website, providing insight into each building, others offer audio tours that can be downloaded through an app so students can follow along at their leisure. The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign , for instance, even offers an accompanying song playlist to listen to on the drive around campus.

  • Golf cart tours

A walking tour is not always the only formal option to see a college campus. High Point University in North Carolina, for instance, has a personalized tour option, where a student ambassador drives families around the campus in a golf cart. Students also receive information about the school's college transition programs, including the Freshman Success Coach Program and the Project Discovery Program, which provides guidance on how to choose a major . Like other tours, prospective students must sign up ahead of time.

  • Foreign language tours

For students with family members who aren't as comfortable speaking in English, there may be options to take a tour in another language. Some schools, like Old Dominion University in Virginia, have Spanish-language campus tours led by Spanish-speaking students and admissions counselors. These tours are often hosted on certain days of the month. Other colleges may require students to make a request in advance. The University of California, Berkeley , for instance, offers Spanish and Mandarin language tours with a two-week notice.

  • Overnight visits

Some colleges offer an overnight option for prospective students looking to have a more immersive campus life experience. At Reed College in Oregon, for instance, current high school seniors – alongside a host student – can stay overnight in one of the residence halls and eat in a dining hall. Overnights are usually offered only during the week.

  • Group tours

Many students choose to visit a college with their parents or siblings. However, some high schools , community colleges or nonprofits organize group visits to nearby campuses. These visits typically include a short information session and student-led walking tour – during which prospective students are encouraged to ask questions – as well as possibly a meal at an on-campus dining hall.

  • Open houses

While walking tours allow students to see different academic buildings, dorms and dining halls, open houses provide opportunities to ask specific questions and dive deeper into a school's campus life and undergraduate education. Although the structure of open houses varies by college, visiting students often meet with current students, faculty members and staff to learn about available majors and minors, campus activities, the application process and financial aid , among other things. Advance registration is required, as schools may host these daylong events only once a semester.

Kids are using phones in class, even when it’s against the rules. Should schools ban them all day?

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — In California, a high school teacher complains that students watch Netflix on their phones during class. In Maryland, a chemistry teacher says students use gambling apps to place bets during the school day.

Around the country, educators say students routinely send Snapchat messages in class, listen to music and shop online, among countless other examples of how smartphones distract from teaching and learning.

The hold that phones have on adolescents in America today is well-documented, but teachers say parents are often not aware to what extent students use them inside the classroom. And increasingly, educators and experts are speaking with one voice on the question of how to handle it: Ban phones during classes.

“Students used to have an understanding that you aren’t supposed to be on your phone in class. Those days are gone,” said James Granger, who requires students in his science classes at a Los Angeles-area high school to place their phones in “a cellphone cubby” with numbered slots. “The only solution that works is to physically remove the cellphone from the student.”

Most schools already have rules regulating student phone use, but they are enforced sporadically. A growing number of leaders at the state and federal levels have begun endorsing school cellphone bans and suggesting new ways to curb access to the devices.

The latest state intervention came in Utah, where Gov. Spencer Cox, a Republican, last month urged all school districts and the state Board of Education to remove cellphones from classrooms. He cited studies that show learning improves, distractions are decreased and students are more likely to talk to each other if phones are taken away.

“We just need a space for six or seven hours a day where kids are not tethered to these devices,” Cox told reporters this month. He said his initiative, which is not binding, is part of a legislative push to protect kids in Utah from the harms of social media .

Last year, Florida became the first state to crack down on phones in school. A law that took effect in July requires all Florida public schools to ban student cellphone use during class time and block access to social media on district Wi-Fi. Some districts, including Orange County Public Schools, went further and banned phones the entire school day.

Oklahoma , Vermont and Kansas have also recently introduced what is becoming known as “phone-free schools” legislation.

And two U.S. senators — Tom Cotton, an Arkansas Republican, and Tim Kaine, a Virginia Democrat — introduced legislation in December that would require a federal study on the effects of cellphone use in schools on students’ mental health and academic performance. Theirs is one of several bipartisan alliances calling for stiffer rules for social media companies and greater online safety for kids.

Nationally, 77% of U.S. schools say they prohibit cellphones at school for non-academic use, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.

But that number is misleading. It does not mean students are following those bans or all those schools are enforcing them.

Just ask teachers.

“Cellphone use is out of control. By that, I mean that I cannot control it, even in my own classroom,” said Patrick Truman, who teaches at a Maryland high school that forbids student use of cellphones during class. It is up to each teacher to enforce the policy, so Truman bought a 36-slot caddy for storing student phones. Still, every day, students hide phones in their laps or under books as they play video games and check social media.

Tired of being the phone police, he has come to a reluctant conclusion: “Students who are on their phones are at least quiet. They are not a behavior issue.”

A study last year from Common Sense Media found that 97% of kids use their phones during school hours, and that kids say school cellphone policies vary — often from one classroom to another — and aren’t always enforced.

For a school cellphone ban to work, educators and experts say the school administration must be the one to enforce it and not leave that task to teachers. The Phone-Free Schools Movement, an advocacy group formed last year by concerned mothers, says policies that allow students to keep phones in their backpacks, as many schools do, are ineffective.

“If the bookbag is on the floor next to them, it’s buzzing and distracting, and they have the temptation to want to check it,” said Kim Whitman, a co-founder of the group, which advises schools to require phones be turned off and locked away all day.

Some students say such policies take away their autonomy and cut off their main mode of communication with family and friends. Pushback also has come from parents who fear being cut off from their kids if there is a school emergency. Whitman advises schools to make exceptions for students with special educational and medical needs, and to inform parents on expert guidance that phones can be a dangerous distraction for students during an emergency.

Jaden Willoughey, 14, shares the concern about being out of contact with his parents if there’s a crisis. But he also sees the upsides of turning in his phone at school.

At Delta High School in rural Utah, where Jaden is a freshman, students are required to check their phones at the door when entering every class. Each of the school’s 30 or so classrooms has a cellphone storage unit that looks like an over-the-door shoe bag with three dozen smartphone-sized slots.

“It helps you focus on your work, and it’s easier to pay attention in class,” Jaden said.

A classmate, Mackenzie Stanworth, 14, said it would be hard to ignore her phone if it was within reach. It’s a relief, she said, to “take a break from the screen and the social life on your phone and actually talk to people in person.”

It took a few years to tweak the cellphone policy and find a system that worked, said Jared Christensen, the school’s vice principal.

“At first it was a battle. But it has been so worth it,” he said. “Students are more attentive and engaged during class time. Teachers are able to teach without competing with cellphones. And student learning has increased,” he said, citing test scores that are at or above state averages for the first time in years. “I can’t definitively say it’s because of this policy. But I know it’s helping.”

The next battle will be against earbuds and smartwatches, he said. Even with phones stashed in pouches, students get caught listening to music on air pods hidden under their hair or hoodies. “We haven’t included earbuds in our policy yet. But we’re almost there.”
