[quote=Anonymous]Last year, I had a 6th grader and an 8th grader at Swanson. The 6th graders were not allowed to carry backpacks, but the 8th graders were allowed to carry them. The explanation was that the 6th grade hallway was smaller and more crowded than the 8th grade hallway. I never understood that explanation, but there is a lot that I don't understand about Swanson. We got my 6th grader a messenger-style bag that was actually not that much smaller than her backpack, but nobody ever had a problem with her carrying the messenger bag at her side. It seemed that only bags carried on the back were flagged as problems in the 6th grade hallway.[/quote]
