NORTH BROOKFIELD — It was business as usual in the sixth-grade classrooms at the elementary school today.
Some students used traditional yellow No. 2 pencils, while others used pens and mechanical pencils – returning them to their desk or shirt pocket when they were finished.
Last week, Wendy Scott, one of two sixth-grade teachers, sent a letter home to the parents of all sixth-graders announcing that she and Susan LaFlamme were instituting a new rule barring students from carrying any writing implements on their person, in a backpack, or on the school bus.
The memo explained that students would be issued a pencil for use in class that would be collected at the end of the school day.
The memo cited behavior problems and said any student found in possession of a pen or mechanical pencil after Nov. 15 would be assumed to have the implement “to build weapons,†or to have stolen it from the classroom art supply basket. ...
When pencils are outlawed ... (http://telegram.com/article/20101116/NEWS/101119746)
