Schools that don't allow backpacks? Huh?

I’ll be attending a new high school in my district this year. The one I was at last year allowed backpacks, but this one won’t. They claim that we don’t need them because lockers are easy to access and the hallways would get too congested without them. I’ll probably carry around some sort of bag instead. If I carry pencils/pens loose, they get stolen right out of my hands. Plus, bringing a lot to each class gives me more time to mingle with friends.
