A local school district won’t let high school students bring backpacks to class anymore.
Kids can still carry purses and computer bags in Shiocton High School starting this fall. But District Administrator Nichole Schweitzer thinks larger bags can be a tripping hazard if people have to evacuate quickly.
Schweitzer says they won’t add more time for students to go to lockers in between classes. But she says they will relocate people to more convenient locker locations if needed.
Schweitzer wants people to give the new rule a try before making any judgements.
