Now, all that said, I have had three kids in high school and have never had one reach the second level of phone confiscation. And that is good, because there is no way in hell I would sit back and pay for service for a phone that my kid didn't have, and not raise all kinds of trouble at the school.
LOL, I would probably end up in in-school suspension, too.

The school can't take it away for a year..if you come to pick it up the school must legally give it back to the parent.
There was a time though when the ppc6700 existed, you can just tell the teacher its a PDA for taking notes and they wouldn't know the difference lol..but now that there is an iphone and most phones look like iphones you won't get away with it.
In NY though they didn't allow cellphones at one point, but after sept 11th that rule came under a lot of criticism and fell through and worst case teacher just takes it till end of class.
