Re: showers after practice for student teacher

I can't figure out why they won't build some facilites with
privacy in mind. I teach at a big suburban high school in
Texas where they recently spent millions of dollars on
rennovations. However, the new girls' locker room has one
giant gang shower. I coach volleyball and track and the
athletes seem to have no problem with using it, but many
students in PE seem uncomfortable with the lack of privacy.
