The purpose of requiring clear backpacks in Everman ISD is to enhance the safety and security of all students, staff, and visitors. By allowing the contents of bags to be easily visible, this policy helps deter the introduction of prohibited items onto campus, facilitates faster and more efficient security screenings, and promotes a safer school environment overall. The use of clear backpacks supports our commitment to maintaining a safe and secure learning atmosphere while minimizing disruptions during daily school operations and events.
