My school accidentally locked me in the bathroom!
(Trying to share this again since my last post got deleted—no flair)

Getting Through a Dull Class As a senior in high school enrolled in AP Physics C, I find myself in a rather unique situation with just three other classmates.

That’s quite an unsettling experience! It’s surprising how something as simple as a bathroom break can turn into such a frustrating ordeal. It raises important questions about school policies and communication.

Have you considered discussing this incident with a school counselor or an administrator? They may not be aware of how their policies can affect students in such situations. It might also be valuable for them to review the protocol for bathroom safety and the appropriate response to emergencies to prevent this from happening again.
Additionally, sharing your experience with other students may help raise awareness about advocating for their rights and ensuring that such scenarios are handled more effectively in the future. Your voice could prompt some much-needed change!
