On rainy days, the hallway outside our classroom becomes so slippery that someone falls almost every week. The problem is that students carry dripping umbrellas into the building and lean them against the walls, so water spreads across the floor. As a result, people slip, and the tiles stay wet until the final bell rings. To solve this, I propose that our school place a large umbrella stand with a drip tray beside each entrance. Students could leave their umbrellas there in the morning and collect them before they leave for home. Some students may hesitate to leave their umbrellas behind because they worry that someone might take the wrong one by mistake. To deal with this concern, the student council could hand out colorful tags for students to write their names on, and council members could use the stands first so that others see how simple the system is. A dry hallway would keep everyone safe, and it would cost the school very little.
