Yeah, iPads aren’t required or anything, but they help because you can take notes and they’re not as bulky as a laptop. I’d say it depends on the school though. I go to a small private school where the teachers and students know each other well and are usually kind of friends, so we’re given grace with phones and computers. XD my Bible teacher is like a second mom, and she lets me sit in her office if I’m having a bad day or she’ll give me juice or soda if I’m thirsty, and she just ignores it when I text in class. It depends on the school and teacher, I suppose.
