A Phone Isn't a Phone?

A high school junior gets in trouble for talking to his mother (in Iraq) on his cell phone during lunch, reports the Columbus (GA?) Ledger-Enquirer.
Says the assistant principal:
They’re not supposed to use them for conversating back and forth during school because if they were allowed to do that, they could be text messaging each other for test questions.
Fair enough, but how about treating cell phones just like pay phones? In high school, we could use them at lunch, before and after school, and if we needed to during class time, talked on them near the cafeteria with hall pass in hand.
And show the conversating assistant principal a dictionary.
