I'm guessing the radiators would be covered for the safety of the patients?

This picture looks just like my old highschool too. What is disturbing is that it seems that alot of American Highschools are just as derelict.

my high school had a few of these it was built in 1954 but none of them had the covers instead we had mold and a super-cold lunchroom which was originally outside and they cheaply threw a roof on it hell in the winter

wAaAaAoOoO!! great

Wouldn't that be even more dangerous? I mean, if the heat was warming up the metal, if the paients touched the metal, wouldn't it burn them?

I would assume the metal is safer then leaveing the vents in harms way.

I remember this place. I visited my uncle here in probably 1963? I was maybe 10. I still remember the colors of the walls.

Yeah, kind of defeats the purpose, I mean it would seem these metal coverings would get just as hot and burn the crap out the patients.
