The students who need to pee, poop, change tampon should not have to work around smokers/drinkers/lounging around-skipping-class students. The smokers/drinkers/lounging-around-skipping-class ones can go outside. If these so called students can't go outside, staff needs to stand inside near the bathroom door checking IDs and they need to start doing so immediately!

They really aren't but if it makes you feel better to believe this sure.

Does this problem extent to Einstein?

Yes. Every high school in MCPS has its own bathroom issues. Einstein does also.

My Einstein kid reports that the situation is annoying, but workable once you figure out which bathrooms are open. Lines get long at lunch, but there’s plenty of time.

Before the current closings, she’d seen a bit of vaping and sometimes smelled weed, but nothing violent or extreme. Mostly just people hanging out skipping class.

Maybe it is more of a problem at western moco schools like BCC, where kids are passing out drunk.

Heard they were passed out at another few schools too. It just didn't make the news.

He obviously walked right out and didn't seem too disturbed... but I cant imagine if our middle child went through this.. He would definitely develop anxiety over the bathroom situation (a W HS just for context)

As inappropriate as this is, I think sex in high school spaces is not new.

I'm much more concerned about drugs, stabbings, gun violence, robberies and assaults happening in MS/HS bathrooms.

So am I. However, I am sharing that to add and not forget about another reality happening in the HS bathrooms due to lack of adequate supervision. You as an adult may not be as concerned about it but many kids may feel incredibly uncomfortable if they see this happening. I mean, its SHOULD not be happening in the school bathrooms! Imagine finding coworkers having sex in the office bathroom...
