Backpack Updates

In the district's ongoing effort to ensure safer schools, Dallas ISD will require clear backpacks for ALL STUDENTS for the upcoming 2025-2026 school year. 

As an additional option, mesh backpacks will be acceptable, however clear ones are preferred. Students may carry a small, non-clear pouch in their backpack to hold personal items, such as cellphones, money, and hygiene products.

To support families, each student will be provided a durable clear backpack at no cost. Parents may also purchase the preferred clear backpack, or the acceptable mesh backpack, for their students.
