Due to recent events at Philip Barbour High School, backpacks in most Harrison County Schools have been banned. Our student body should be allowed to carry backpacks to classes. We as Lincoln High Schools student body would rather have our personal belongings checked everyday, other than not having the right to carry a backpack or a oversized purse. We may not have many classes in a day but most of our classes require us to have our books a separate binder a notebook and pencils. and that is a lot for a student to carry without having something to put and carry our supplies in. Not only would it be more convenient but more students come prepared for class knowing everything is in their backpack.
