It’s one of the most dangerous places in the world. No, not I-95 and not a public bathroom. While both are terrifying in their own way, neither can compare to the terror of a high school hallway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many students are speeding their way to their classes, hurrying up and down stairs in a desperate rush to get to class before the bell catches up to them. Junior Charlie Bishop stated, \u201cI try to get to class as fast as possible. I don\u2019t like being late.\u201d Students, especially here at River Hill, are trying to get by the day as fast as possible. \u201cI’m honestly trying to get to the end of the day.\u201d Sophomore Joe Alphonso comments. \u201cThe faster I get to class, the better. I’m just trying to get home.\u201d  The faster they get to their classes, the faster they can get it over with and soon be embraced by the freedom of going through those school doors<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there seems to be a common obstacle among many students here at River Hill. \u201cThe hallways are definitely a problem,\u201d Senior Daniel Dzubak complained. \u201cIt\u2019s too chaotic, especially with it being early in the morning.\u201d During passing periods, the hallways flood with students, all going in different directions. It causes trouble for some to get to their classes on time. \u201cThere are too many people in the hallways,\u201d Junior Ade Smithson stated, \u201cI’m surprised I haven’t been trampled yet by how many kids are shoving through.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not only the number of students that seems to be causing an issue in the halls, but the students that linger there too. Senior Jizelle Williams made a complaint saying, \u201cThe amount of times I\u2019ve had to go around because kids are standing in the middle of the hallway or stairs is insane.\u201d Some find it frustrating to have some students stand by the large stairwells, giving them no room to pass through. It causes some commotion for a few and brews frustration. \u201cI’m having trouble getting to a class that\u2019s literally a few steps away.\u201d Ellicott Olson said when asked about the hallways. \u201cLike, why are kids just standing there? If you wanna talk, stand off to the side of something, not in the middle of the hallway.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s safe to say that many students here at River Hill are, needless to say, a bit frustrated with the hallways. But there are simple solutions to this problem. \u201cStopping standing in the middle of the hallway is a good start,\u201d Jizelle suggested. \u201cYou can stand to the side or in an area where people are walking through.\u201d Many struggle to get a path to their class due to many lingering in the middle of the halls. Staying more toward the walls gives others a better chance of not getting stuck in the mod.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The halls can certainly be a rough place. An unpredictable area with chaos and numerous people chatting, talking and even running. So stay safe out there River Hill, and make sure to look both ways before crossing the halls!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
