What about hallway congestion or if a teacher holds you back but refuses to give you a pass to your next class? Ever thought of that!?!?!?

you forgot to account for the 15 seconds to pack your stuff up, the extra time it takes to go to his locker and add about 1 minute 30 seconds because of traffic in the hallways

There’s no way you can pee and get to class in the 5 minute break.

My guy said I got 5 phone numbers and used the bathroom and still got to class on time

Bro he def can’t run a 5 min mile smh

Adults always speak of their youth as if they were mad cool, no way 4 eyes was getting 5 numbers from decent chicks.

they should’ve done this during an actual class change then we would’ve seen him fail

"I got in trouble for being late to class so my principal took me into the bathroom"

I actually kinda side with the student on this one. I know what he's going through. In my school, passing time was 3 minutes, and I had 2 classes back to back that were literally (not kidding) on the opposite ends of the school. I was always like a couple of minutes late. Especially when the teacher didn't let us start packing up UNTIL the bell had rung.

“I can run a mile in 5 minutes. With these clothes on!” If I was a distance runner at that school I woulda SNAPPED 😂

When the hallways are crowded, it's very different. I work at a school every day.

I wanna see that journey with all the other students crowding the halls.

Its really hard to be quick in the hall way because of all of the kids in the hall way that actually walk show they are the once that make me late

This principal is cool.He seems very nice but at the same time not a pushover.He could teach a class on how to be nice and assertive.Some people become mean when they take assertive classes when in reality people should be nice but not be a pushover.This principal is very understanding, fair and reasonable when it comes to discipline.I like how he doesn't yell at students and treats everyone with respect.

Mr. Harris is the coolest principal in my opinion. I was hella surprised he showed up to our graduation. Class of '10...

during passing time when the halls are jammed with students shoving past you it takes a LOT longer to walk to class than when it's empty. I actually side with the student on this one. used to happen to me. fortunately my school didn't even have such a thing as detention, and if you got suspended you darn well deserved it because you did something ACTUALLY serious and with no remorse.

That principal knows damn well he can't run a mile in 5 mins

Bruh this principal may appear nice but he's unreasonable using the bathroom during passing period when there are liek 15 others in the bathroom takes at least 6 minutes, especially if u take a dump

Good sir, you can run a mile in 5 minutes when you're the only one on the track. You can't run a mile in 5 minutes when everyone else is walking slower than infant with a broken leg

Okay...sure...it’s easy when there’s NOBODY ELSE IN THE DAMN HALLWAY!!!

What time does school start? Try arriving to school about 25 minutes before school starts. School starts at 7:45. Arrive at 7:15: 7:15 - Locker Visit 7:20 - Restroom Visit 7:25 - Breakfast 7:30 - Get To Homeroom/Homeroom Bell Rings! Tardy Bell at 7:40. Bell Schedule: 1st Period 7:45 - 8:35 2nd Period 8:50-9:40 3rd Period 9:45-10-35 4A 10:40-11:30 4B 11:05-12:55 5A 11:35 - 12:25 5B 1:00 -1:50 6A 12:30-1:20 6B. 1:55 - 2:45 7th Period 2:50-3:40 8th Period 3:45-4:35 Dismissal at 4:40 Lunch Schedule: 1st Lunch 10:40-11:00 2nd Lunch 11:35-11:55 3rd Lunch 12:30-12:50 4 Lunch 1:25 - 1:45 Starting school quarter to 8 a.m. isn't so bad for high school students. 7:45 is a good idea. 8 classes daily.

I love Mr Harris! I’m glad he took his time off from his busy schedule to show students a point.

“Get em good and clean.”

didnt take into account haveing walk to locker from class and then back

Five minutes is plenty of passing time. When I was in High school, at times I had to walk from one end of the building to another and it only took me about 3 minutes.

Bro you had no traffic in the hallways, no lines in the bathroom, and STILL had less than 60 secs left Nooooope

To be fair.. People walk 00.001 mile per hour. And school is over crowed. Not only that people stop in the middle of the hallway just to talk.

Unfair! There Are No Other Students Hanging Out, Or Making Out In The Hallways To Be Hovered Around, No Wheel Chairs, Or Teachers With Rolling Bookcases. Let's Not Forget The Bathroom Wait Of Other Guys Pissing & Washing Hands...Back When I Was In School We Had "Tardy Sweeps" Your Teacher Locks You Out When The Class Start Bell Rings, You Then Have To Go & Get A Detention Or Saturday School Slip Before Being Allowed Back Into Class. WORKED!!!! We Hauled Ass To Class Everyday!!!

The thing is though the bathrooms would most likely be full so you would have to wait on top of that he didn't stop and get stuff out of a locker too

I respect he made it fair and said he was gonna do it himself and if he don' make it he isn't in trouble

Mr. Harris needs to realize that school also has lots of traffic and it’s impossible to get through whenever your literally shuffling

Damn that dude rockin the Motorola razor. I remember when that was badass

My school got 4000 kids in it, we got 8 minutes between classes

Bruh if he actually had to use the bathroom first and then wash and dry his hands, he probably wouldn’t have made it. Middle school survivors, y’all feel me

Mr. Troxel, I really didn't think anybody else had that last name.

Wow 1 day ISS for three tardies! At my high school 3 tardies would only earn you a 42 minute detention not even a write up

Had this problem with my twin girls in Jr High School, they were late everyday but their problem was hall congestion, no use of lockers so carrying books/notebooks was an issue because the school didn't allow purse like backpacks. Students need more than 5-8 minutes between classes

What about the congestion of students in the hallways? The kid forgot to mention that.

Principal Harris is NOT what he claims he is. His style is not caring or supportive at all. I never gave kids detention for being late. They simply lost credit for the classwork grade. Kids who came late in the morning had all sorts of ligitimate reasons.

we need more principals like him.

He must be stopping in the bathroom for a quick 10 minute vape sesh on the way to class

You stay in the same classroom all day. You have scheduled restroom breaks and eat lunch separate from the rest of the school sometimes in the classroom. It really sucks after about 3 hours.

My school bathroom has writing all over the stalls & there's no napkins. Their bathroom is gorgeous lol

He’s trying to wash his hands to get all clean but his “ phone” is siting right on the dirty counter 😂😂

Hes a great principal. I like what hes doing

Uh-uh. It use to take me a while to get to class because of other students. Why don't he go through the halls with other students there

The fastest mile time in the world is 3:43 minutes. This guy really thinks he can run a mile in 5minutes while wearing dress shoes / clothes? Lol Not a chance.

that's a clean bathroom for a high school.

5 MIN TO RUN A MILE BULL! I CAN'T RUN I HAVE A DR. NOTE FOR NOT ALLOWED TO RUN BULL I AM ON KID'S SIDE

10 years later youtube puts this in my recommended good job youtube

In my school, all of the toilets are broken and even a bathroom stall is broken. and the place stinks real bad! and its a middle school bathroom!

3 class tardes and that’s in suspension🤔 damn my school don’t do that if you late you just late🤷🏽‍♂️

I like that the principal showed by example that it is possible to get from one end of the school to another in 5 minutes, even while using the bathroom. However, there are a couple potential flaws in this demo. One is that it doesn’t take into account time spent to gather supplies from your locker. Of course, if your classes are that far apart, odds are that you’ll pass by your locker at some point, and it shouldn’t take that long. But with traffic in the halls, you might not get to your locker right away. It can be tough to walk at a decent pace if the traffic is shoulder to shoulder. Plus, there is the possibility that there could be a line in the bathroom (especially for the girls), and you don’t have time to wait in line, and you probably don’t have time to find another bathroom (even if you did, that one could have a line as well). And if you have a teacher that doesn’t allow students leave class to go to the locker, bathroom, or water fountain, this bathroom line could be a problem. If this was a girl, I could see being a minute or two late to class because of a bathroom line. But since this is a boy, and he was 40 minutes late to class (not just one or two minutes), there is no excuse for that kind of behavior. That’s flat out “cutting class”. For the situation at hand, I would say that over a period of time, you learn the most direct route from one class to another and your campus, and plan your locker stops accordingly. But the bathroom visits is harder to predict, because you don’t know when you need to go, what business you need to do, or how long the line will be. You can try to take steps to avoid that situation, such as using the bathroom before school, at lunch, or after school. That would make it less likely that you’d have to visit the restroom at other times, but it’s no guarantee. The reality is that when you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go, and not everyone can hold it for very long.

I have 7 minutes to go from class to class.

Bro! This is Chris from everybody hates Chris.😳😂

UNFAIR! Does not take into account the hallway would be normally full of students - they are walking in an empty hallway!! Not comparable!! Can you imagine if the student pushed his way through the crowds? There would be fights galore.

i respect the kid for actually learning his lesson

Five minutes it only took me 2 minutes and I had two buildings to go to class and I had to maneuver through fights and I love how awesome this principal is with discipline

*screams at children so to get over here* “I’m a very kind person and usually nurture”

0:06-0:10 0:19-0:26 0:30 0:58-1:20 1:30-2:10 2:30 -2:45 2:50-2:55 3:15-3:19 3:23-3:26 3:30-3:43 3:45-3:50 3:55-4:00 is my favorite part of the video I had the same issue back in jr. High and high school 🏫‼️💯

Because the halls are so empty during passing periods

The originator of the “pshh”

With all that cockiness and the extra hand washing thought we were gonna have a classic case of the tortoise and the hare on our hands - guess not

So, the Principle gives him permission to run in the hallway?

At my school, not only would he received detention at tardy 5, but he would have also been considered to have skipped class after being 40 minutes late, and received additional consequences for skipping class due to a certain number of tardies to class equaling one skipped class.

Is that kid wearing pink lipstick?

Same honestly, I don’t really understand the concept of time unless someone shows me

I wish my school had their bathroom

Best principal

His lips stand out so much

Okay being 40 minutes late is rediculous but to be fair passing periods aren't long so 🤷🏼

Hold up they get 5 minutes we get 3

Why was I waiting for Chris Rocks voice to start speaking

@KingOystar That's no excuse. That kid knows that if he eliminates distractions, he can get there in time.

Wow so good!

Cool principal, and he made his point. IMHO, a kid in Air Jordans should be able to go even faster than the principal...

That experiment is useless lol - there are no other kids in the hallway while he's walking. There's no trying to push past people, waiting to be able to access your locker, packing up your stuff, getting the right books for your next class, waiting in line for the bathroom if other people are using it, etc etc...

The principal should get iss for having a phone from 2001

There was no one in the hall when they walked. Obviously it’s not gonna take 5 minutes

This is a badass principal

This test was pointless, There isn't 500 students shoving and pushing in that hallway when they did this, They wouldn't have done it.

He didn’t even walk back

He's not accounting for all the girls who walk together across the whole Hall at the speed of continental drift

Y'all ignoring the fact he was forty minutes late to class. FORTY MINUTES. That's like all of class he basically just skipped

“I can 1 mile in 5 min bruh no u can not you never was a track runner

“I can run a mile in 5mins with these clothes on” I call BS🤔

That principle is awsome!

Well when the bell rings the hallways are crowded tho, so

What I use to do is look both ways then run on your toes. It worked well.

My principal would've had me iss on the spot for making a bet

It takes me no more than 2 out of allowed 5 minutes to change classes that involves going all the way across the school

to be fair, he wasn't in the hallway when other students were which makes it a lot slower. He also didn't have to wait for the bathroom and go to his locker.

that awkward moment when the top comments are exactly the same....

that principle seems pretty nice & the boy was understanding

damn, at least they have 5 minutes between classes. we have 3 which is bullshit beacuse we have three floors and if they expect me to make it from the bottom floor to the top in less than three minutes (especially with these slow ass, goofing around people) then they're mistaken.

I have to get to class in 3 minutes. In my school we have 2 stories and a basement. 2 Grades in one story and the other 2 in the other story. We, for some reason, had a big blow up of new kids in my grade and I and 79 other kids got pushed up into the grade below us wing. I have to run up from the basement and get my books after gym because they don’t let us bring our books down, then go down one more floor and go all the way in the back. Plus kids don’t know how to act and are very slow so I get held up a good minute. So for everyone who says 5 minutes isn’t enough it is and 3 minutes is all you probably need but it’s very hard to work with.

Idk why but I like to watch him wash his hands

Oh damn...I never heard Mr. Harris yell. ☹🙁

I contest that hallway was clear no one around. Try to get to your class with a school with multiple floors and thousands of people in your way. Plus if you gotta get to your locker or use the washroom with tones of people trying to do the same thing as you. I don’t think 5 minutes is long enough it’s long but sometimes it’s not.

40 minutes late for class? Results is detention
