LLS Clear Bag Policy

Los Lunas Public Schools has launched a clear bag policy at all district athletic events, both indoor and outdoor venues effective beginning August 19, 2024, a step that district administration says will enhance public safety.

The new clear bag policy does not apply to student athletes who have district-issued team bags.

The clear bag policy is modeled after industry standards, which allow for the following:

• Bags that are clear, plastic, vinyl or PVC and do not exceed 12"x6"x12"
• A one-gallon clear plastic zipper-style freezer bag
• Small, non-clear clutch bags, approximately the size of your hand (the bag cannot be larger than 4.5"x6.5"), with or without a handle or strap
• Exceptions will be made for medically necessary supplies in bags appropriate to the size of the medical supplies

Prohibited items include, but are not limited to:

• Purses larger than a clutch bag
• Coolers
• Briefcases
• Backpacks
• Drawstring bags
• Luggage of any kind
• Computer or camera bags
• Any bag larger than the approved sized mentioned above

Under the new policy, guests may bring one approved clear bag and/or one small bag (like a clutch) to Los Lunas Schools stadiums, fields, and other athletic events. Cameras and binoculars may be carried into the venues as long as they are not in a bag or case. Seat cushions and blankets are still allowed. Diaper bags are also allowed under the clear bag policy, provided guests enter the venues with a child. All items are still subject to inspection.
