What are the negative things about an elevator?
Elevators can fail, and their electrical power is vulnerable to fire. Every building has stairs as a back-up to the elevator. They are often slower than stairs, especially if they regularly stop. Riding an elevator does not provide exercise, while walking up stairs does. Jews who observe the Jewish Sabbath are permitted to climb stairs, but are forbidden to press the buttons of the elevator on Sabbath. Some buildings have a special "Sabbath elevator" that stops at every floor.

Do you lose weight from walking from the third floor to the first floor at school between classes?
When you walk, even when going downhill or down the stairs, you are burning calories. Any calories you burn come from the glycogen stored in your body in the form of adipose (fat) tissue. So, even if you are not losing weight, you are doing what you can not to gain more. Walking up the stairs burns more calories than walking down, so avoid the elevator.
