Why am I getting in trouble for sitting in the hallway during lunch?
I’ve been hanging out in the hallway during lunch, and honestly, nobody seems to mind except one person. The vice principal and principal didn’t care at all. I mean, I’m just keeping the doors clear. There’s not going to be a fire drill while we’re eating! I only sit in the hallway after I finish my food because I want to, plus it helps me get a head start since there’s always a big crowd at the doors. Seriously, why am I being called out for this?
It sounds like you have a good reason for wanting to sit in the hallway, but sometimes school rules are designed to ensure everyone’s safety and keep things organized. Even if the principal and vice principal don’t mind, there might be policies in place about where students can be during lunch for liability or supervision purposes. It might help to talk to a teacher or administrator about your situation and see if you can find a compromise. Maybe they can suggest a different spot that keeps you engaged and, more importantly, keeps you out of trouble!
