Dallas school district surveying parents about potential policy to require clear backpacks, report says
Fox News
Parents in the Dallas Independent School District will have a chance to weigh in on a potential new safety policy that would require students to use clear backpacks.
While schools across the state are looking into new safety procedures following the deadly shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde earlier this year, district spokeswoman Robin Harris told the station that the district had already been considering the new policy.
The rule would require clear backpacks – not mesh – across all schools in the district, according to the report. Students reportedly would be allowed to carry small, non-clear makeup or pencil pouches inside the clear backpacks.
