![In the fourth period AP Calculus BC class at Palo Alto High School, senior Crystal Li places her phone in the “phone jail.” Starting July 2026, this may become a normal procedure across schools in California thanks to Governor Gavin Newsom signing the Phone-Free School Act into law last week. According to Li, there are often unnecessary complications that come with enforcing phone restrictions. "It becomes a hassle putting it [a phone] in [the phone jail] before class, and taking it out after class," Li said. "There have been multiple times where kids from other periods interrupt the teacher to come back in and pick up a phone they left."](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/IMG_7386-3-1200x900.jpg)
![As Palo Alto continues to struggle through a storm that began Monday night, neighborhoods throughout the city, including scenes on Emerson Street, are suffering from the damage of fallen trees and powerlines caused by the storm. Students across the Palo Alto High School campus, including junior Rori Escudero, faced a power outage as a result of the harsh storm, forcing many classrooms to adapt to their new environment without Internet and light. “I was in AP Lang and we [Escudero’s class] had to change our plans because of the power outage,” Escudero said. “We have hand sanitizer on every table so we put our flashlights under the hand sanitizer for light.” (Photo: Kristine Lin)](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Screen-Shot-2023-03-14-at-9.44.50-PM-900x503.png)
