It is no secret that the air temperature of Kearsley High School is usually uncomfortable and inconsistent.

Students often find the temperatures to be either too hot or too cold, and rarely at a suitable degree to be able to focus and thrive in their classes.

“It’s hard for me to concentrate on work because of how cold the school is,” junior Jaclyn Dejournett said. “I have to wear my coat to some classes.”

In the winter, it is not uncommon to see a lot of people in coats walking to their classes.

“It’s hard to focus when I’m cold,” sophomore Hunter Clements said. “I’m more concerned with getting warm than doing school work.”

Fluctuating temperatures can be annoying to students as their trip from the bitterly cold cafeteria to their next class requires their bodies to adjust to a change in temperatures.

Not all areas of the school are cold, though. Some rooms are extremely warm, such as the band room, where the hottest point of the room reached 86 degrees this winter.

Now that it is May, exterior temperatures reach 80 degrees but the air conditioning in some rooms cools the room below a comfortable level.

Even though it is hot outside, students will still choose to dress heavily so that they can bare the cold, while others wear season-appropriate clothing and fight through it.

Senior Arika McClain participates in choir classes and has all throughout high school.

“That part of the building (the choir room) is never managed properly in terms of temperature,” McClain said. “Mrs. Kotzian herself had to bring in a space heater in the winter.”
