Have you ever been walking in the hallway and saw something that you wish you hadn’t? Students and staff at HHS have some advice for how YOU can avoid being the center of hallway shenanigans.

Many things can cause disruption to the environment of our hallways.

Mr. Schreibvogel, science teacher, wanted to make sure that we specifically put his quote in exactly as he stated. He said, “I think the most annoying thing that the students do in the hallways is lollygagging.” He believes that the use of phones on the way to class have been the main reason for tardiness at the beginning of his classes.

However, this isn’t the only annoying occurrence taking place in the hallways. Another pesky shenanigan is hallway horseplay. Ava Albright, freshman, said, “Something you shouldn’t do in the hallway is trip or push people.” Is she speaking from experience or simply giving advice? I guess you could always find her in the hallways to ask…or maybe not.

Freshman had unique advice to offer, Michael Davis is most annoyed when people “Breathe.”, while Chevvy Huber is bothered when his friends call him in the hallway, especially when they are, “Headed to the same class.” He also confirmed that this happens more than you would think.

Isabella Galliart, senior, had a different concern about hallway shenanigans and spoke about when people stop to talk to a friend they may see in the hallway. She made a very valid point when she stated, “It’s really annoying and you take up the whole hallway.” 

She made a good point on how we need to be more conscious of others in the hallway, rather than just focusing on ourselves and what we are doing. Another good point that was made about a more serious issue that can occur in the hallways, was brought to light by Ms. Kelly, substitute teacher. She reflected on how bullying can take place in the hallways and said, “I do not like seeing students mistreating other students.”

Speaking about interactions between students like bullying, senior Fernando Rodriguez, spoke about how he has also seen fighting in the hallways before, and even had to break one up himself. He added, “If you’re gonna fight, at least don’t lose.” Interesting opinion to have there Fernando. Though school fights may be a relevant subject in regards to things that can happen in a hallway, they should be avoided.

One matter that we can all agree on is seeing too much PDA going on in the hallways. For the most part, none of us want to witness affection in public at school, especially early in the morning, when we could barely just get out of bed. Matthew Rosen, senior, said it best. “Don’t bring your physical relationship to school” Not just that, but don’t bring any of your shenanigans to school, especially your hallway ones!
