For four years, I called this place home. My high school is one of the “big four” of the Tulsa County Schools, and it lives up to its name. Two stories high, two lunchrooms, a performing arts center, and a second building across the street, it was definitely intimidating walking in here as a freshman. They even hand out maps so you can navigate to your classes, something that seemed ridiculous, but was needed when I had no clue there was a second story to begin with. There are road signs on each hallway to help you find your way. The wall colors ranged from red, black to tan, and the carpet was grey with colors to match.

One of the downfalls is the lack of windows in the classrooms, I felt like I was in a shoebox and wouldn’t mind if there was some natural light. We do have skylights that are on the second-story ceilings, that allow natural light to come through in the hallways, but it was drowned out by the incandescent lights lining the hallways. There really isn’t anything special about the building that stands out, but I’m probably biased after being there eight hours a day.
