The Gilbert High School Restroom Policy
September 14, 2022
So I asked a couple of anonymous people their opinion on the restroom policy. Here are some of the comments I received:
“It is unfair because some students take advantage of the passes by taking their time when other students need to go.”
“It is time-consuming because you have to ask your teacher to write a pass, scan the QR code, check in with the staff member at the door, then you have to sign the QR code to check back in.”
“It can also cause bladder infections because some students may not have enough time to use the restroom and some students feel rushed. During lunch, the girl’s restrooms only let you have two minutes to use them, which isn’t enough time to use the restroom in case of feminine issues.”
“Some girls and boys might not even be able to use the restrooms during lunch because of how long the lines are.”
“It feels illegal to use the restroom with this policy because we should use the restroom when we need to. It feels like they’re taking our restroom rights away or limiting our restroom use.”

This is absurd! My son attends here and they are literally checking up on students while they are using the restroom. It’s like some sick mind game. Our children have enough issues to worry about. Now they have to worry about having their personal restroom emergency put on display for staff to question them about.

I think that is terrible. Even anxiety can cause someone to have to go to bathroom right away. Iam in the medical field I know the problem it can cause. I have never heard of something so rediculous. No wonder people are choosing to home school there children.

My daughter attends here and hasn’t ever had an issue with the restroom nor something about QR code reader. How can they do this during class when phones are placed in a pocket organizer upon entering class?
