WBTV is reporting that Charlotte Mecklenburg School leaders are seeking approval from the school board to auction off 46,000 clear backpacks. The backpacks are listed as surplus property to be sold in an online bid auction on an upcoming CMS School Board meeting agenda. The board will vote to approve this in a meeting scheduled for tomorrow. The backpacks cost CMS nearly $442,000 and were ordered before anyone noticed the proposition 65 warning label for residents of California.
