MC students find classroom that lets you leave when the bell rings

Mount Carmel students have found a mysterious classroom where the teacher lets you leave when the bell rings. Instead of not letting you go to the bathroom or refusing to let you go to lunch on time, the classroom’s doors are mysteriously open no matter what happens. 

Students may finally have a reason to believe in miracles (that aren’t sports-related) after a mysterious classroom has been uncovered that allows you to leave the moment the bell rings instead of listening to your teacher’s 15-minute final announcements on Friday. The legend says the classroom is between Mr. Haggerty’s and Mr. Vasquez’s classrooms, and the only people who are allowed to enter are the people who actually pay attention during the Impact Week speeches. 

This mysterious classroom on the third floor near the freshman lockers has quickly become a center of attention for many students at MC. Unlike the traditional classrooms at MC, students have reported the strange phenomenon of instantly skipping the traffic in the halls and getting to their next classes on time. 

“I can’t believe that I was actually able to go to lunch in time,” said sophomore Mark Juarez. “Instead of waiting for the freshmen cramming up the hallways for 30 minutes, I was able to enjoy a nice snack from the MC vending machines.”

For many years, MC students have struggled with getting to their next class during the five-minute passing periods. The crowded hallways, insufferable freshmen, and teachers who ignore the bell completely all contribute to the traffic. Multiple students have complained about the matter, including sophomore Brenden Hodges.

“Walking from the beginning to the end of the first floor itself felt like the Walk-a-thon run,” he said. “It shouldn’t be that hard to just walk a couple steps.”  However, the rise of the mysterious classroom begs an important question: why can’t the other classrooms follow the same system?

Many students have been in disbelief at the discovery of this classroom, including senior Calixto Rios, who was dumbfounded when he learned of this. 

“I didn’t even realize underclassmen were getting to lunch on time,” he said. “I thought it was a right reserved to seniors.”

Students have reportedly begun skipping their classes in order to find this mysterious classroom. One student, Sophomore Eddie Briscoe, has claimed that the classroom is “harder to find than the Fortnite Item Shop Access,” which is a rare consumable on the video game Fortnite with just a 1 in 700,000 chance of dropping.

Despite the growing interest in this classroom, administrators have not yet confirmed its whereabouts. Meanwhile, the students continue to wander the halls to find what many claim to be the best invention in Mount Carmel history since the Fast Passes at lunch have been added. Until further notice, students will have to settle for listening to the primordial saying of all teachers: “Before you go, just one more thing…”
