        Pennsylvania wants to ban these uses in school, but is a state that has no law against using a cell phone while driving, which is known to be dangerous.

        LOL...which is more important, PA? Road safety or using a cell phone in school?

        Why not just restrict use to before class, during lunch, after class and at certain school functions?

        Ah...the laws states are coming up with...LOL...
