Rolling Meadows, IL high school students are 'taking back' a mural hit by vandals at the Kirchhoff Road underpass.

Rolling Meadows, IL high school students are "taking back" a mural hit by vandals at the Kirchhoff Road underpass.It took months for the Rolling Meadows High School art club to design and complete their mural at the Kirchhoff Road underpass.

"I just don't understand how anyone could get any kind of good feeling out of damaging something that meant so much to the students and the entire community," said Rolling Meadows Park District Executive Director Kevin Romejko. The work of art celebrates the diversity of the community, with images of the activities the residents engage in in each of the four seasons.

"When I came to see for myself and take pictures, I was kind of crushed," said RMHS art teacher Martha Nava. "I wanted to take that and empower my students to take it back."Illinois jobs hiring: Conference at University of Illinois Chicago seeks to narrow racial wealth gap

Nuts. I feel bad for the girls who are forced to change in front of boys. If I were a parent there I wouldn't allow my girl to be a part of that. Girls need to start boycotting these teams etc. If every on the team walks out the school might get the hint.
