On the back of a door in a home in Flint, Mich., there hangs a black Trailmaker backpack that belongs to Jaxon Williams, a third grader at Freeman Elementary.It hasn't been moved for nearly a week.It's officially retired, like a jersey, said his mother, Ladel Lewis, a City Council member.That's because Jaxon and over 2,800 other students across 11 campuses in the Flint Community Schools are subject to a ban on backpacks that began this week after district officials were alarmed by threats to students' safety.
