The new policy will affect 10,000 of the roughly 21,000 students enrolled in Akron Public Schools.

Kids will carry the bags with them throughout the day, but will not be able to access the device inside until the end of the day, when a magnetic unlocking system opens the pouch.

The new policy was tested in several schools during last school year, and will now be in affect at most Akron Public middle and high schools.Ellet CLC High School
