I don't even see the sad excuse of a playground. Is it actually there?

On top near the bus you have a little triangle between the building and a tree.

With like...what...a bench and a single slide?

Weee, kids. Use your imaginations. :(

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.)
