I can see where cell phones can be pretty disruptive in a classroom.

I would hope that the teacher would start with "please turn your phone off and put it away while class is in session" Then if the kid didn't comply I think taking it away temporarily until the end of the day is appropriate. I don't agree with having to pay a fine to get it back.
