Troll fail.[/quote]

Excuse me?  Do you mean the person claiming it’s literally impossible to change into shoes at their school is a troll?[/quote]

“Garbage excuse for a school” because kids can’t change boots? Where do expect them to do it, in the crowded hallway or locker area while standing up? Go away crazy lady. [/quote]

Yes in the locker area while standing up. Presumably teens are in good enough shape that bending down isn’t life threatening [/quote]

What locker area?  Have you even been in a MS or HS this decade?  There are no lockers, let alone locker areas.  [/quote]

I dunno.  You may want to consider that some school districts may be different than yours.

My kids have 2 lockers.  One in the hallway, and one in the gym lockeroom[/quote]

Do your kids go to some very small private school?   Most public high schools around here literally have thousands of students.    There's no room in the school to give each student two lockers.[/quote]

No, its a Middle school with about 800 students.

And as a different PP mentioned, they are actually required to use their lockers (not their PE ones, though).  No backpacks in the classroom is the policy.  So kids don't go to the locker between every class, but they probably go 3-4 times a day.  [/quote]

[b]Ok, but it's not like that at all middle schools or high schools. [/b]
I'd also be surprised if there is really space and time at your kid's school for every student to stand in front of their lockers to change shoes at the end of the day and still make it out on time to catch the school bus.[/quote]

This was my exact point.  I was responding to the poster that said: "[i]What locker area?  Have you even been in a MS or HS this decade?  There are no lockers, let alone locker areas[/i]"

And my response was exactly what you said:  not all high schools or middles are the same.  many have ample locker space and time between classes to get to the lockerrooms.  And its not just small privates.  our MS has about 800 and our HS has over 2,000 kids.[/quote]

And each of those 2000+ high school kids has 2 lockers?[/quote]

No, bc not every kid takes PE.  [/quote]

So then where are these non-PE taking kids supposed to keep the boots/extra shoes?   You can't provide a place for some kids and not others.   Equity.[/quote]
