Kids don't wear coats.

Even if they are walking or biking home in January?

Hoodies. Its a thing- not a hill to die on.

Really selling the school there.

Why? This isn't just W-L. My kid at a different school has never used a locker.

+1

My YHS student has never used a locker.

No one said they were insisting their kids wear coats - just wondering if there was even an option to bring them and leave them somewhere, which seems not crazy given kids may have to walk home after school when it is raining and cold. and coats and hoodies are not the same, as the Holderness family sang: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DEhoFd7RAE7/?hl=en

Yes, they can leave them in their book bag while they’re in class. There is no reason to get a locker for a jacket They’re gonna wear 10 times next year. Seriously 1000s of the kids figure this out at every high school. Yours will too. Not a problem parents need to solve.

What do kids do with bike helmets? He kept it in his locker in MS and certainly wouldn't want to carry it around all day.

rent/pay for a locker.

or leave it in homeroom as others have noted.

Do you have a child in APS? There is no “homeroom” where they begin the day.

People were just asking -- not trying to solve anything. My kids often go straight from school to activities and then walk home at night when it is colder than it is during the day. That is why I was curious -- not because I was trying to solve anything. I had a locker in high school and my kids had one they used everyday in middle school.

Does WL have that every day at the beginning of the day? Other APS HS don't do it that way, and its not daily. It would be odd to leave your things in that teacher's classroom.

Everyday, but it's mid morning. I think when it was the beginning of the day years ago, too many kids just came to school late and skipped it.

My DD leaves things all day in her GP room, or her coach's room. It's not a big deal. Like if she brings cupcakes in for a friend's birthday, they get left there until lunch.
