      I attended a Catholic grade school in Ohio that straight up didnt have a playground or yard. Recess took place in the parking lot!

        Was it D.C.E.S.? That’s where I went to Catholic grade school in Ohio. We also played in the parking lot at recess.

      There’s a better angle on google maps, but it’s surprisingly hard to get the image from there. There’s a small jungle gym sort of thing. It’s more than just a slide, but not by much.

      Well, at least they got the slide. My elementary school had a grassy field. They had us sell gift wrap over the holidays with the promise of a playground for our efforts… we sold the shit out of that wrapping paper and they didn’t actually build one until after I was in high school. This was a public school in a very wealthy community in Florida BTW.

      (It was a very nice large field to be fair, we played a lot of tag and soccer over recess, but to make us work to pay for a playground we’d never get to enjoy is shitty.)
