GREEN BAY (NBC 26) — The Green Bay Area Public School District announced new security measures that take effect today in response to an incident earlier this month in which a student brought a gun to Preble High School.
Beginning Monday, all high school students will be required to use clear backpacks on campus, district officials said. The policy is intended to increase visibility of students’ belongings and discourage unsafe behavior.
District leaders are also tightening consequences for fighting, assault and possession or use of weapons. Students who engage in or contribute to unsafe acts will be immediately removed from school property, face a minimum multi-day suspension and will be barred from district campuses and school-sponsored events during the suspension.
