I'd check the legality of that, while yeah he can confiscate the phone, I think he's supposed to release it to parent, otherwise he can be charged with petty larceny.

I am not really ok with that, but I can see their point. Where they lose me is that they refuse to release the phone to me either. That's my phone, not her phone, and I am paying for cell phone service so I can keep track of my errant 15-yo. WTF. The principal is saying that they have a policy and that makes it ok. Methinks not. You do not just take people's property. You can restrict their use on campus sure. But take the cell phone away? Just take it? Not. If I am the first person to object to this then I *really worry about public life in America.
