Bookbags (Backpacks) |
In an effort to do all that we can to assure the safety of students, we have initiated procedures restricting the use of book bags, athletic bags, or other similar items for transporting books, gym clothes, athletic equipment, etc. Book bags, athletic bags, or similar items may be used only for the purpose of transporting books, other school related materials, and personal effects to and from school. Immediately upon the student’s arrival at school, any book bags, athletic bags, or similar item must be deposited in the pupils’ locker. Bags deposited in lockers must be left unclosed (i.e. unlocked, unsnapped, unzipped). This regulation shall be strictly enforced to reduce the risk of contraband, such as drugs and weapons, being concealed in a locker which is the property of Cumberland County Board of Education and which may be searched by school officials without prior notice. This restriction is necessary for the safety and welfare of our students. Gym clothes may only be carried in grocery bags. At the closing of school in June book bags will not be
allowed at school after lockers are emptied. |
