🎒Clear Backpack Policy for 2026-2027 🎒

The safety of our students is our top priority at Duncan Public Schools.
Beginning in the 2026-2027 school year, clear backpacks will be required for all PK-12 students.

This policy is part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe learning environment for every student. Clear backpacks allow us to take proactive steps to ensure our schools remain secure while still allowing students to carry the items they need each day.

Students can carry the following in their backpacks:
A lunchbox and a pouch (pouches can be no larger than 5.5 x 8.5 inches) to hold personal items such as cell phones, money, and personal hygiene products.

Backpack Requirements:
Backpacks must have clear, see-through front, sides, back and bottom.
Mesh backpacks are not permitted
Colored transparent backpacks are not allowed
Backpacks may have colored straps
District-issued Chromebook cases are permitted

Organizer Requirements:
Mesh organizers are permitted in the backpack as long as staff are able to clearly see through the bag
Front pocket mesh organizers are allowed
Small clutch bags inside the clear backpack that must be 5.5 inches x 8.5 inches or smaller are allowed

Lunch Boxes:
Non-clear lunch boxes are permitted
Must be carried inside the clear backpack
Drawstring bags and sling bags are not permitted for lunches

Bags and Instruments:
Athletic/gym bags and instrument cases are not clear but must be stored as soon as the student arrives at school
Must be placed in lockers or secured in classrooms or athletic locker rooms as designated by school staff

Need More Information?
We understand you may have questions. We've put together a complete policy overview and FAQ to help answer them.
