Picture this, you’re in science class, or music class, and you really have to use the second-floor bathroom. Well, girls, you’re all set. But guys, that’s a different story.
The door just used to be locked with no sign. But now there is a sign that says: “Closed for repairs.”
But what repairs? The bathroom was recently vandalized with graffiti. They originally closed it at the beginning of the year and painted over the damage, and re-opened it hoping that it would teach the lesson. But, it didn’t. It increased in the past week and a half and it remains closed while they do a full re-vamp of the space by placing mud over the damaged area, leveling it, and then repainting. It has been re-opened this week.
East Associate Director Paul Marble said, “I am disappointed that students are defacing our school.”
To prevent future closures, Marble suggested that students have to take a stand and speak up to whom ever is doing it or report it to administration. The punishment could be as severe as a long-term suspension.
