Walk a day in our shoes

Team Story, Staff Writers|December 14, 2021

Every day starts with feet on the ground, then sliding toes and heels into shoes. As students walk the halls, their shoes not only take every step with them but might say something about their comfort level or style.

The shoes worn are purchased for a number of reasons: sometimes because the wearer needs new shoes for the place they are, sometimes because of family influence, or sometimes because a classic must be replaced.

In the end, shoes are the foundation of any day.
