I know this topic may be strange but recently at Blaine High School in the month of December I noticed how dull the school hallways and walls were and it really quite confused me. I’ve done a bit of research on the school and noticed maybe just a few things by the office and some other posters rarely around the school. The most dullest part is the where the 9th-grade lockers

are, as you can see this picture to the very right, there is literally nothing! So I’ve asked a couple people on this topic, but I haven’t interviewed teacher or an adult. I asked one of my friends since the 6th grade, Pablo Alfini,  “Pablo, what do you think of the lack of school designs on the walls and hallways?”, “There isn’t a lot of decorations, it’s quite an explicit school,” He replied. Then I went to another friend and he actually had a different side to this topic, I was actually impressed because this is a topic you don’t hear everyday. So I asked Mahdi Mohammed, “What do you think of the school’s designs on the walls and hallways?”, “They put a lot of interesting stuff on the walls, I like how they put the news by the office, and I like the huge picture by the gym showing people that went to BHS and now they’re in a Major League sport. This school has a lot of neat things.” So now I guess people have different sides to my argument! I asked one of the people that sits right next to me, Nicolas Falgetelli also shown in the picture to the right, agreed that BHS has blank hallways.

He compares the BHS hallways with the 50 lane highway in Beijing which is quite hilarious!

     But the real question is who could make a change to our hallways? The only people I can think of that would be more willing to is the art teachers. We have many options and possibilities to do with our hallways. It would just take a day to have the whole school decorate the hallways to make a better point of view,  just one day! Just imagine yourself as a student walking in from the doors and seeing a bright artful picture, it may make them have a different mood and look forward for the long day! If you agree with my argument please tell me so we can make a change!
