BHS Clear Bag Policy

There will be a new clear bag policy used for games at the Athletic Stadium, Big Gym and Small Gym, and graduation.
To provide a safer environment for the public and to expedite guest entry into athletic events, commencement ceremonies and other activities, Banning High School has implemented a policy that limits the size and type of bags that may be brought into the Athletic Stadium as well as other ticketed venues.

Please refer to the BHS Clear Bag Policy for specific details.
