Give and take: How to share a locker without killing each other

August 10, 2012August 26, 2012 Annie Mitchell 0 Comments

A cluster of students stand in front of the S-wing lockers during break. Students often choose to chat directly in front of their lockers, making it very difficult for others to access theirs.

Junior Maddie Shumway takes no notice as her locker neighbor Abbi Furlow tries to access her locker with Shumway’s locker door in the way in this photo illustration.

Sophomore Shae Langely reaches over her locker neighbor Danielle Gantar in this photo illustration. Encounters with locker-neighbors directly above or below may be awkward, but take notice of their presence and create room for them. No one wants to have to do the bend-and-reach.

Slightly annoyed sophomore Alexis Knipp waits to reach her locker while it is being blocked by two other students. Be considerate of your locker neighbors because other students often get frustrated when you make no attempt to make room for them.

Students often use different colored folders and textbook covers to make finding what’s needed easier, minimizing the time they have to spend at their locker.

Many students who participate in sports activities after school store their sports equipment in their locker, which takes up a lot of room. Don’t be the locker partner who hogs all the space with their sports bag. The office is an alternate place to keep sports gear.

Sophomores Emily Knighton and Megan Wong have a system for keeping their locker organized. “The bottom is for the textbooks, the middle is mine [Megan’s] because I’m short, and the top is hers [Emily’s] because she’s tall,” Wong said with a laugh.

Junior Aimee Davis shares a somewhat messy locker with junior Erin Warnock, but “her stuff still has to be on her side. I won’t tolerate any mixing of our stuff. It’s just like my pet peeve,” Davis said.

Sophomore locker-partners Diego Rodriguez and Gavin Monges decided to take a nearby empty locker so they could keep their books and clothes separate after spending the first half of their year struggling to fit everything in their locker.

Adding one’s own personal touch can make locker sharing a bit more enjoyable.

Many students use shelves in their locker to provide additional space and create separate sections. This gives each partner their own territory, making sharing a locker less of a hassle.

Junior Abbi Furlow reaches into her locker to take out her folder in this photo illustration. Furlow uses folders instead of binders because they take up less room in her locker, giving her locker buddy more space for her school supplies.
