BACKPACK SAFETY
- Pack lightly: A backpack should never weigh more than 10 to 20 percent of the student’s body weight.
- Organize: Make use of all compartments and pack heavier items closest to the center of the back.
- Pick a comfortable pack: Choose one with wide, padded shoulder straps and a padded back.
- Always use both shoulder straps: Slinging a backpack over one shoulder can strain muscles and may increase curvature of the spine.
