Lake City Elementary School

My school that I am assigned to is not very gigantic. It is about the same size of my old elementary school. It is divided like any other normal elementary school, except with some adjustments. One thing that is similar is that they keep the lower grade level students separated from the higher grade level students. The school was originally "cut off" at the cafeteria, but the lower grade level wing was added on making way for more success in the classrooms. The bathrooms for the students are outside in the halls, but so far I have not seen any bathrooms in the classrooms. My old elementary school had one bathroom in the classroom so that the students could use it instead of having to go out in the halls. The school has started this new program, as I would say, where starting at third grade and going up they switch classes for each subject. So even though the teachers still have their class in the mornings and the evening before they leave to go home, they still share every teachers students. So it is like I am not even in fifth grade. I feel like I am in middle school all over again. The playgrounds are not completely fenced like mine was either. They have a wide opening where the students walk in and out, but there is no gate that protects them from leaving the premises. So all in all, it is a smaller school than what I am used to in Campbell County.
