Andrew Harris of Willis Klein sent me today’s Wordless Wednesday photo, and it’s disheartening.  🙁

This is the exterior door of a middle school classroom with one or more students who have special needs, and the teacher intentionally parked there so the door could not be opened from the inside by students.  If it is a required exit from the classroom, parking a car in front of the door is obviously an egress problem.  If it is not a required exit, the AHJ should allow the door to be locked in a way that would prevent a child from leaving but would allow the teacher to unlock the door if necessary.
