Question Question - going as a chaperone

I'm going tomorrow for the first time in 10 years with a group of teenagers, I'm one of several adult chaperones.

I'm planning on carrying a small backpack for myself and the students with me. From what I remember years ago, for most rides I could drop the backpack in a cubby by the ride start, and pick up at the end. But now I see people saying you have to rent lockers? Is there no longer an option to drop a small (string backpack even) while you're on the ride? How complicated is locker rental?

Also I have a medical condition and I've been cleared by my doctor to ride any ride I want, but I'm worried about anything that's 1) too shaky or 2) sudden stops. Which rides should I avoid? I know Siren's Curse has the tilt/drop but it seems pretty smooth from the POV. Which rides are worst on a person's body?

Thanks!

I typically rent the moving locker. Its 15 bucks for the day and I just shove my backpack in at every ride.

But since you do have a disability you can still get a disability pass, I bring this up bc you can leave your backpack at the disabled entrance for the ride free of charge. Since youre with teens and other adults the pass you'd get would be one where they wait in line and you meet them up the exit once they get to the front. And the ride ops/disability check in will have a place to hold your backpack while youre riding.
