That's very rare. In the meantime they are having their brains destroyed by social media and not paying attention in class.

Yeah, but it happened at my kid's school. Now my kid didn't actually text me during the incident. But other kids texted their parents. Different levels of panic depending on the classroom/kid. Also, within a week a kid was killed at a different school in the district.
Awful, but have to weigh that communication with how disruptive and harmful phones are to kids. Devil is in the details here.
Then there was the time, a kid brought a gun to the elementary school and it went off, luckily into the carpet. My kid was in a different part of the building and wasn't aware until I picked him up. I found out on social media, not through the school.
I am not against having kids put the phone away, but there are real reasons parents are worried.
