Some students might think just because they are in high school they are too old for backpacks, but that is not true. Backpacks are almost essential for a student in any part of school. They help a student carry important materials for all their classes and just make school a little bit easier to manage. Even if a student doesn’t feel the need to take work home a backpack can still help with things like food and clothes for gym or after school activities. Backpacks can also be a nice addition for a student’s wardrobe if they pick up a snazzy backpack. Backpacks are just as important to a student’s school day as pens, pencils, and paper. Backpacks should never go out of a student’s essential school materials just because they are in high school they are too important.
