Looks like the Site of the Privy is in the woods Now.
Shame it's in D.C.. Probably no way to get a Yes to Detect

The school closed in 1928 and the building was converted into a library. In 1965, the new Palisades branch of the public library was opened and the destruction of the Old Schoolhouse became imminent. However, the Palisades citizens association urged preservation of the building and its use by the Children’s Museum.
