I take mine to school all the time. I just turn the sound off and check on it whenever we change classes or I get bored in my class (doesnt take much trust me). We dont have a strick policy on Tamagotchis, not on anything really except cellphones... I know people who have brought in their Xboxes and such... Anyways, I keep my tama in my jacket pocket or if I dont have that then my jeans pocket.
