how did SSG CarbonizedMiddleEasternToddler even get this kid's number? Like, are schools colluding with recruiters to just ship underperforming kids off to die?

Highschools ask for the students cellphone numbers? I'm out of touch, I graduated before everybody had a cellphone. What do they need the students numbers for?
