Explanation:

Sentence fragments are fragments of sentences that are together but not complete as a sentence. They are more like dependent clauses, with no meaning, and also doesn't make a full meaningful sentence. Sometimes, different punctuation may be required to make them into complete sentences.

Among the given sentences, option B is a complete sentence with correct punctuation and sentence structure.

The other options are sentence fragments as they either are incomplete sentences or they need a change in the punctuation used.

Like in sentence A, the period/ full stop between "lockers" and "And" should be removed. And change the "A" into "a".

In sentence C, the same case with the position of the period. Removing the period after "school", change it into a comma and changing the capital "T" from "The" to "t".

Sentence D also has the same error- the period after "belongings" and changing "F" into "f" of "From".

Thus, the correct answer is sentence B.
