<p>In our school, about 70% of the students use their lockers on a regular basis. Ever since sophomore year (I’m a senior now) I have just been using my backpack to carry around all of my things. I haven’t used my locker at all this year and quite frankly it has given me a lot more freedom because I can hang out with friends more in between passing time without worrying about going to my locker. Sure, it can get quite heavy with multiple textbooks, but I use my car as a sort of locker, per say.</p>
