An arrest has been made (day before I took these photos) so hopefully the authorities are on top of the problem now. Thanks for your memories of the "forgotten wing". It seems it officially is the boys locker room! Although I figured I had at least part of a boys bathroom given that urinal! These walls are going to be taken out now, the "stairs to nowhere" will still be there but it will be much a much more useful place now.

The girls locker rooms were under the gym on the north side and the boys on the south. The boys locker room was not sealed up in the last renovation -- it was used at the custodian's room on the lower (cafeteria) level. The girl's locker room was sealed. It is hard to tell what you have pictured, though, because there was also a kitchen on the first floor (west wall of the old library between the library and the stage) because the former library was a cafeteria at one time. Btw--I heard that Magee has been broken into several times to steal materials and that the Round Lake Police wasn't being of much help. Is that true?

IT IS NOT GONE!IT IS STILL IN FLU SHOTS AND THE CDC AND EVERY OTHER LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT PROMOTES THOSE FLU SHOT EVERY YEAR FOR CHILDREN. 2.)EVEN AFTER IT WAS SAID TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED, DOCS HAD STOCKPILED VACCINES THAT STILL CONTAINED THIMEROSOL AND SINCE MONEY IS MORE IMPORTANT, THEY CONTINUED TO UTILIZE THOSE STOCK PILED VACCINES. and 3. It has never been the Thimerosol alone that has been considered the culprit. There are 15 year old studies that are conveniently not recognized by the AAP simply looking at what do all these children have in common in their biochemistry? 97% of them have some type of immunologic, gastrointestinal or metabolic/biochemical abnormality. The brain is a chemical factory, which produces neurotransmitters, receptors and other complex biochemicals that make the communication between nerve cells possible. What does this have to do with Thimerosol and vaccines? Well if a child is born genetically predisposed to a weakened immune or metabolic or gastrointestinal system, then you add insult to injury with a vaccine schedule that bombards their little bodies not only with multiple viruses in one shot, but in addition to that others given at the same time and on top of that, a heavy metal perservative, which ultimately is the recipe with great potential for neurological damage. Basically, the main point of all this is NOT just Thimerosol, but a ONE SIZE FITS ALL VACCINE SCHEDULE REGARDLESS OF FAMILY HISTORY OR TESTING FOR ANY OF THESE ABNORMALITIES THAT MAKE CONDITIONS JUST RIGHT FOR AUTISM TO STRIKE!!!
