Before she came to Lake Bluff, Ms. Scheferman was a recreational therapist until she wanted to be a stay at home mom to care for her children. Then she wanted to work near her children and work in schools.
Ms. Binns was a middle school teacher teaching theater and drama classes. She was also a wedding DJ for 4 years. And she did plays.

Ms. Scheferman felt “Cold, really cold.” Also they had to move a ton of stuff out into the hallway.
Us: What is the weirdest thing that has ever happened here at Lake Bluff?
The weirdest thing that happened here was the coyote sitting on the front lawn of the school during dismissal. So Ms. Scheferman called the police and the police came and somehow got the coyote off the lawn. Strangest thing that happened at old school was a professor and she had to be moved to a science classroom and she didn't know how to teach but there were a lot of dead animals in the room and she was so freaked out the whole time.
One time at Ms. Binn’s old school she had to make fake blood for a play and with the rest of it she decided to dump it outside but the school nurse was very freaked out and concerned that someone had basically been gutted.
