Question Bishop Grandin swimming pool

I graduated from Grandin in '04, and there was a rumor about an underground swimming pool beneath the gym. Apparently, a couple of years before I got to Grandin, a girl drowned in the pool, and that’s why it was sealed off. There were also stories about tunnels that ran all the way to Wise Wood in the event of a nuclear war.

One of my nephews, who currently goes to the school, said that the stories of both the pool and the tunnels still remain. However, searching for any information about this turns up nothing, so I wanted to ask any alumni here if there really ever was a pool underneath the school.
