My photos of the building are from Sept. 15th, 2021. The main sign had not been in place as yet, and see the photos in the news articles and you will see it as it is now.
The main entrance had been re-done with a meticulous mosaic of the schools seal.

"Kemper opened in 1844 and closed its doors in 2002.
