In an effort to continue to improve safety and security for our students, parents, community members, and visiting guests, we will be implementing a clear bag policy starting on Friday, September 23rd, 2022 at the Varsity Football Game vs. Mount Vernon. Clear bag policies are nothing new to large scale sporting events and other venues.
Please review this graphic closely and feel free to share this information with others. Items such as lawn chairs and seat backs are perfectly fine. We appreciate your support as always and certainly appreciate each of you playing a part in helping make our stadium an even safer environment.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me at mizec@mineolaisd.net
