    All phones are a distraction to learning and should be put away and never used in class

    keep the current system Mr. Bahn had with phones

    everything
    I did not like the fact that we had a full schedule of classes each day

    I did not like having 8th period on the first day
    I did not like the 2nd hour study time each day
    I did not like having to go to a class after I already took a final for it
    It was more difficult this semester than last semester, l like first semester better
    the schedule of full days (tests & class) verse half days only focused on exams
    I still had several tests the week prior to finals
    Finals do not prepare me for college, we should get rid of them
