P ractical people know that lockers and backpacks
are intended for storing school supplies. But in an
age with less practicality and more personality, students
were seen stashing their storage space with more than
just pencils and books.
While some students personalized lockers by wallpa-
pering them with gift wrap, others made themselves at
home by actually housing pets. However, students found
out that storage of valuables came with a risk: lockers
didn't always guarantee security of personal belongings.
"This morning when I went to my locker, my fish
was gone," said junior Brett Byman. "I checked to see if
he just flopped out, but I never found him."
Senior Connor Crowley even utilized his car in an
unusual way.
"I hang my wet work clothes up inside my car to dry.
It takes the hassle out of dragging them in the house,"
Crowley said.
No matter the item and where it was stashed, stu-
dents put a new personal spin on organization.
