All students at Cleveland ISD must bring a clear backpack to school starting Friday.
The last-minute policy change was implemented on Monday after a violent threat was apparently made to a middle school in the district.
Cassandra Osuna is one of many parents at Cleveland ISD who worries every day about sending her kids off to school. This week, at least two threats were made at two separate schools in the district."My kids didn’t go to school today. I'm really thinking about home school. I'm not comfortable with sending my child to school," Osuna said.
Authorities say a Cleveland Middle School student was arrested and suspended Monday after making a shooting threat that prompted the district to implement a clear backpack policy within hours. "I want you to understand that when a student is suspended all the way through December of this school year and we implement a new safety policy so quickly; that is a message to you and the community that this threat needs to be taken seriously," said Stephen W. McCanless, Cleveland ISD's Superintendent."More needs to be done, definitely.
The measure comes as schools across the country work to increase safety measures to prevent school shootings.
