I am dealing with a group of students who are off task and choosing to talk instead of work in class. The students have been redirected and informed that they need to stay on task and quit talking. When this does not work my first step is to contact the parents. Three of the students parents are unreachable due to phones being disconnected or wrong numbers. I don't know what I should do next.

I agree with this situation. I think that forcing communication with the parents is vital for student success.

I think that this solution is best. Making sure you have the correct numbers is essential and the office should have updated phone numbers.

I think this solution may work. I would sit the students down individually when they are away from their friends. Students tend to open up and take things seriously if their friends aren't involved.
