Carroll County school officials are weighing a ban on cellphones in the classroom. Students in the school district are allowed to have their phones with them and are permitted to use them at certain times throughout the day. School board members discussed at Wednesday’s meeting a proposed cellphone ban for students, saying it is a distraction to their education. “I don’t want to say we can’t have cell phones but we need to have a certain time,” Carroll County Public Schools board member Marsha Herbert said.
