Um. And how weird and appalling would that be, to be 13 and having to use the bucket. No one would EVER forget it.
What sort of thing would you have a lockdown
for
? Wouldn't the bucket be less exciting than the crazed gunman or whatever?
(Or maybe y'all lock down over all sorts of stuff?)
dump in a bucket
Does that strike anyone else as the title of the next R. Kelly opus?
Oh great, now I'm visualizing the Dave Chappelle spoof video of it.

SERIOUSLY! Oh man. That's funny.
And do they include transfer forms for anyone that has to take a shit in front of their class? I mean, seriously, how would you face your students or classmates after having used this?
Cashmere, when we had a lockdown at a former school of mine, we were locked down for about 5 hours, even past the normal end of the school day. A girl had to pee in one of the 6th grade classes so the teacher double bagged a trashcan and had her use that. My former students, who weren't even in her class, still would mention it 3 years later. I wonder if they still mention it now that they are seniors?
So. No. I don't know how you face your classmates after.
One of the cool things at my daughter's elementary school is that all the Kindergarten classes have attached bathrooms. Not that it is practical for every classroom, but the Kindergarten teachers are probably happy about it.
I wonder how long it will be before schools are designed with emergency lockdown bathrooms in each classroom.

I'm pretty sure I had that in kindergarten and first. Definitely more convenient than going down the hall or whatever.
They have them in my daughter's prek-k classes. Which is very sensible, since at the start of the year some kids are only 3, and not so great with the paying attention to making it to the bathroom. (We also send in a spare change of clothes for this purpose.)
