Did you not have a locker?
Not OP, but when I hear this argument, a lot of schools wouldn't let you go to your locker between all classes. That, or your classes were so far apart, you didn't have time to go even get to your locker between them. There were some days I could only get to my locker once.
Yeah. I had a locker next to the school’s music room in the farthest corner once. Fun year.
Well that's why I ask, we had lockers, that were easy to access between classes with minimal planning. It just blows my mind how many people didn't have a locker.. My locker at work was even easy to access. I'm sorry y'all didn't have a locker
Yeah, lockers made life so much easier. It’s wild to think some didn’t get that convenience, definitely makes daily routines harder.👌
My highschool, which I graduated mid 2010s, didn't have lockers.
We had gym lockers, which was just to put our stuff for that one gym period, it wasn't "our own".
So, no. Not all highschools have lockers.
My high school, among other interesting design decisions, didn't have any lockers in the academic areas. So you had a locker that was way over by the gyms, or out by the shop classes, or if you were lucky in the cafeteria (because then you could at least stash your lunch in it).
The administration also seemed to be completely mystified as to why everyone carried around huge backpacks.
My high school didn't have lockers. I assume mine isn't the only one.
