Some say new temp too cool for school

BRRR! It’s that time of year again—a time when students dread showing up to certain classes because of the frigid temperature of the classrooms. Students are curious about what the actual temperature is in the building.

According to Lead Secretary Nita Kennedy, the buildings temperature during the day is 68 degrees, but at night it gets turned down to 55 degrees.

“I think Mrs. LeRoy has the coldest room in Everett,” said junior Christopher Tschirhart. “I walked into her classroom once, then right back out because it was freezing in there!”

Compared to most of the classrooms in the school, say some students, the offices of the administrative staff are fairly warm. However, assistant principal Tracy Keyton stated that there is no preference given as to which classrooms are cold and which are not.

“What’s in the room is in the room,” says Keyton. “The main office and counseling centers have working heaters, but that doesn’t mean they never get cold.”

Keyton stated that the coldest classrooms are usually the ones bordering the outside and that have a large amount of windows.

“I think that the band room could possibly be the coldest,” said junior Justin Lundy. “It’s right towards the end of the building and boarders the outside.”

Some students said they find the coldest rooms to be the ones located on the first floor.

“Sometimes it gets so cold I have to take all my hours to the library,” said English and Psychology teacher Jennifer LeRoy. “Right before winter break this year, my room got down to 57 degrees during the day.”

Some classrooms however experience more than just low temperatures.

“In my experience at this school, I find Mr. Allen’s new drama room the most challenging during the winter time,” said interpreter Megan Hart. “There was actually snow coming in under the door while it was snowing out.”
