I mean, you hear about all those school shootings and wonder how they managed to get a weapon inside right?

Probably with their backpacks.

My highschool allows the carrying of backpacks or tote bags from class to class, but I wonder if whether or not that is a wise decision.

I believe school’s should have random checkings of students so as to raise the safety bar.

But that’s simply my opinion.

The back packs are a nuisance in the classroom, as well as a means of concealing stuff that the kids shouldn’t have to begin with. Used improperly, they could also be a weapon. Do things the old way, carry your books at your side, under your arm.

Especially at the high school level (not sure what grade your in)because they’re are more books you need, plus supplies. going to your locker between every class to switch out books and then go to class can be problematic if your next class is on the opposite side of the school

p.s.

kerry k that can be difficult if u have a lot of books. I don’t know about other schools but i know that if everyone carried books on their side, then a lot of peoples would end up on the floor because people like to push them out of others hands
