Backpack Guidelines for Students
Students should carry only their binder, Chromebook (inside the neoprene sleeve,) charger, pencil pouch, one library book, headphones or earbuds, water bottle, and a healthy snack.
Eliminate items students do not need.
Use compartments for smaller items to distribute the load.
Cell Phones must be off and kept in a zippered compartment in backpack.
Ask students to clean backpacks frequently.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that a child's backpack weigh no more than 10 to 20 percent of a child's weight.
