Open the school bathrooms

The Issue

My friends and I have had/have some teachers that are strict about using the bathroom during class and want us to do it before class, even though we can’t. The bathrooms are crowded between passing periods, I have to walk multiple floors if I’m in the 1000’s just to use the bathroom, and I have to go upstairs to use the bathroom if I’m on the first floor. This makes things frustrating for people with disabilities (Ex: POTS, wheelchair users, etc.) I know this rule was put in place to prevent smoking, but it isn’t doing much when it comes to that issue. Instead, it inconveniences everybody. We would appreciate at least a consideration of opening more bathrooms, for this is a problem I've been hearing discussed since the new school year started.
