Exploring an Abandoned Elementary School - Found Entire Room of Trampolines!

- Shuttered in 2014 lies a school in the midst of decay. Computer's left on, trampolines collecting dust, my friends and I go see what remains. Memories of past classes are still posted in the halls, literally. Posted everywhere are pictures of former students and faculty. While exploring this facility, it feels like you're in a apocalyptic scenario, walking in the footsteps of the past.

As a teacher, it is a shame that the tables, chairs, desks, etc. could not have been sold to other schools or sold as surplus! These items are like GOLD to schools and teachers!
tookie8888 apparently they had toxic mold on them, but then again, can't things be cleaned or something?
It could be tooo dangers and expensive probably better to get new ones
I understand completely what you are saying, however the liability for the district for the conditions of used furniture is too great. When a school gets new furniture, they contract with the manufacture for conditions such as liability and warrenty. Yes they should action them off as surplus in a bidding package, that will bring in some money and pass it on legally out of the district "as is". I have a relative who works for a district and some time back a school was being remodled with the front offices being moved, including the book room. The new room included new shelving, so the old heavy duty adjustible shelving units (less then 10 years old) were going to be busted up and dumstered by the contractor. Cheaper for them to order new, then to unscrew the units from the wall and move them across the building. With permission from the contractor and principal, about 7 of these now line my garage wall free. 😉
And all the books and games, there are so many resources.
And all the books and games, there are so many resources.
the school: We're closing down.
Teachers: Aiight let me just leave my family photos and all the school supplies laying around
Grotesquely Creative Stoods maybe by the time they closed, it was so dangerous to be in there that health officials found it too dangerous to even do that!
Sarah Spindler agreed. I’m a teacher and there’s no way in hell I’d leave that stuff in my classroom unless I wasn’t able to retrieve it for some reason.
Really!
Maybe they kept thinking they’d have time and then it was too late
Yeah, this isn't Chernobyl ...
I’m surprised no one is living in that abandoned school, it’s like the perfect place with the couches and electricity
Exactly! I don’t understand why the homeless don’t just band together and squat these abandoned buildings. That’s what I did when my only other choice was to sleep on the street. I found an abandoned loft with electricity, cleaned it up, put a new lock on the door, and gave keys to my other friends on the street. We made music and art together and took care of each other with whatever little we had. Why would you choose to sleep on the street?
@@avandeville
You could be charged for trespassing, though.
Michelle Wolfe we could’ve been, but all the tenants were familiar with the cops in the small town and they let us stay there so we weren’t on the streets. they also knew we weren’t doing anything too illegal inside, as we were mostly law abiding citizens lol
It could be turned into apartments
kate elam Cool!
This school actually closed in June 2014. They had invalid state testing scam. They were forced to shut down. Did some research, pretty interesting actually.
Paige Fields what’s it called?
nice, but how would the school get a invalid testing scam? Did the school do something to their students? I am so confused
@@angelina2360 More like they lied about test scores...
I tried to pull it up to read about it but can’t find anything
Really they landed in some hot water
did anyone else feel sad and oddly nostalgic watching this?
i did. it's like one of those videos with pictures that make you feel nostalgic even if you haven't been there.
Yes! I think how would I feel if it were my elementary school! Heart broken...
it's a liminal space!
its kinda sad I actually went to this school for a year or two before it closed
ivoryceleste ღ
Yea
Side note; the fact that a singular computer was on with "Playhouse Disney" as the only thing active in an abandoned elementary school sounds like the basis of a creepy pasta. LMAO
and the knife near the cassette tapes
@@Jaiem_ What?
I am still confused how a computer would still be on after 6 years.
Please tell me this is explained / addressed as I watch the video
4leafclover Maybe they never cut the electricity.
@@cloverleaf4829 its simple, no one turned it off.
Abandoned schools, especially elementary schools make me so sad. Idk why
ImNotAwaffle any place thats abandoned makes me sad
I don’t know why either 😂😂
Maybe because of all the memories made there. Everyone of us has had at least a couple good days at school, and especially at an elementary school.
@@HopperHouse2009 ^^
@Long Âu Gia that too
Just thinking about all the freinds made there and all the children that learned in the school and played in the playground
Teachers doing their job, children talking in the lunchroon, the halls being filled with students and bookbags
Its just sad to me of thinking about what happened in the past
🏃
you can tell this school was on the decline, it closed in 2014 and still used those old computers and tvs. it looks more like this place closed in 2004
They must've been doing really poorly. My mom used to work at a high school that wasn't in a great part of town and didn't have a lot of money. It looked like it was stuck in 1986
@@fever1801 Actually, private schools (on average) typically lag behind in technology when compared to public schools. Whether they were doing poorly or not has nothing to do with why their technology was outdated.
@@fever1801 my college welding program used the weld shop in a highschool like that. it looked exactly like the highschools from 80s movies and they still use vhs and crt tvs to this day. one classroom has laserdisk
Lol i see modern schools with the same computers
The school I used to go to opened up in like, 2001 and there's still the old big tvs hanging on the walls of the classroom
Am I the only one that thinks it would be interesting to turn an old school into an apartment complex? When I was still in Highschool I liked to imagine Classrooms as apartments.
Or as a new school or government building
They did that in Eugene , OR. Apartments, then changed them to condos.
They did that to an old high school in the downtown area of Grand Rapids Michigan. I'm not sure how long it was abandoned before they redid it into apartments, but you can't even tell it used to be a school. We have tons of old unused buildings just sitting around down there, so it's cool that they actually did something with one of them
I imagine my desk like a bed because sometimes I bring stuffed animals to school to help me calm down
They did that with this one building in Seattle. You see this big building on a hill next to radio towers.
11:18 this is that part of a video game where despite you’re in an abandoned building, theres the one computer that functions in order for you to save the game or something
Yeah
Yes
This whole school should be in a video game.
@@dagnytheartist someone make it pls
totally
It’s almost like visiting the abandon elementary school near Chernobyl. They just left everything, and never looked back.
I know this is two months late lol, but I find it really sad that the reason they left it all behind was because they were promised they could return once everything was taken care of, and well... we know how that went.
In fact, there’s a five episode show about Chernobyl(literally just called Chernobyl), and it taught me a lot when I watched it. It has really gory and disturbing scenes so be careful if you feel like watching it.
Another interesting thing about Chernobyl today is that, the clothes of the firefighters that went to battle the flames of the exploded core are still in the hospital and are still deadly radioactive to this day. No one can touch it because of how dangerous they still are. It’s an interesting, and kinda disturbing fact.
I hope you have a nice rest of your day/night/evening :>
@@Starified_Lizzy really where can I watch
right because they had to. another hour or two packing up their favorite things could and probably would have killed them :(

Regarding the computer part, I think the reason the website couldn’t be reached is because technically play house Disney doesn’t exist anymore
And the internet was also most likely shut off In the building and all the lan switches taken for another use

It feels like everyone went home on a Friday and the school, for whatever reason was shut down before Monday. I would think if you knew the school was closing you would take the pictures as memories or as a teacher some of your supplies to take to another school. Wierd.
🤔 yeah kinda like a month ago... 🤣
@@jenmiller105 yeah, feels like what all the schools are going to look like by 2021
furry aZabuck Fr like I was leaving Friday and expecting to return in two weeks but nope..
It looks like the kids had to evacuate? I think something happened and they shut it down.
I worked at a school that closed. We took out personal belongings but things belonging to the school stayed in the building. Lots of good stuff left behind.
For those curious about the big safe/vault, they would probably have used it to keep the student files/records. I work in an elementary school and student records are kept under lock and key.
What about safes inside of safes? 🤔
Dark Exploration Films For me to know and you to find out 😉😉
@@DarkExploration money - I was an elementary secretary & every cent had to be accounted for & kept in a safe for deposit later & yes student files have to be kept under lock & key - however not to the extent of the money. A handful people had permission to access student files but only a couple of people had permission to access both - so a safe inside the safe, hope that explains it for you, love your videos
True I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t be that dumb to leave records behind it’s illegal

Probably explorers.
Since there’s steam on one of the computers.
Or something the teachers used to cut food i think
@@gregory1675 1. some 6th grader probably installed steam on it
2. why the fuck would teachers cut food in the bathroom
the fact that everything, supplies and all, was left behind makes it seem that they had to evacuate the school as quick as possible for some reason. creepy if you ask me.
This really felt apocalyptic. I wonder why it was abandoned like that.. with everything still left on, things still in their place, things in the middle of being worked on.. there is no way that the way that this school was abandoned WASN'T sudden.
This school also seems like a time paradox.. the calendar said that the school was last inhabited in October of 2014, but in one classroom there was some wall decor that said that it was in June. If this was left in 2014, I dont believe that there would be that much stuff from the 90s.. VHS tapes, box tvs.. old Windows 07.. it's just so weird.
That’s what I was wondering
Schools tend to keep equiptment until it's unusable, like the old box tvs. Thats mainly to save money. Like my highschool still uses the old box tvs, in 2020. So yeah having 90s stuff is normal in private schools, that usually lack funding for new stuff.
Its probably because it was a religious school, most very religious schools are behind on technology, mostly because of funding or just dont want to change.... Mostly funding.
i could see them using windows 7 back in 2014 honestly. My work we still use windows 7 and soon they will upgrade to 10. Alot of schools/hospitals etc. always use an older windows system it seems, and upgrades years after the new one is released.
Some schools still want to use stuff from the 90s because they don’t have the money or just plain don’t want to update 🧐
My elementary school was like that lol
I feel like when a space becomes abandoned but it still remains it’s like a weird death to me but the energy is still there. Best way I can explain. Like I feel the memories? Because of the things left behind. I wonder why is everything left there.
I know exactly the feeling you mean. Just makes you nostalgic as if you're looking at ruins from a different society. So simalier yet so different.
When I watch vidoes lile this, my brain makes me make up like fake memories of when the place was open, of what it could've looked like when it active and running.
@@somethingsomethingblue same
Honestly same I want to know why it was left this way
Bit of a late response but look into liminal spaces and stuff. It's pretty interesting.
They left so much stuff that could of been donated, & also they had a shark vacuum in the break room, if I was an employee there I would of taken it home😂
Must've been a tax write off lol
Lmao
The school still had power! Why wasn’t it shut off? What a waste!
Still accesed for storage probably
Likely to keep it from freezing and the pipes bursting.
Incase people wanna explore it and they can see 😜
Minimum power is required to keep exit signs lit, fire alarm system, and boiler running for liability and to prevent water pipes from freezing. This will sometimes also include lights near exit doors. Clearly the city or school district still is maintaining the school to some degree.
Why did this school close just asking
I love abandoned untouched places, those places where they clearly had to just leave everything behind and its left to decay. It's kind of beautiful and sad at the same time to see everything and imagine the people that used to occupy these places.
Lmao y’all are literally the people in horror movies that walk toward the spooky noise
trindabrat yes
@trindabrat 🤣
That's probably one of the CLEANEST abandoned places I've seen, at least that wasn't a residence/home.
It's only been vacant for half a decade
If this school is still in tact and hasn’t been vandalized I would suggest not giving the name out to this school because you never know they can always re open it, re model it, or even turn it into something better in the future and that school doesn’t need to be risked at vandalizing. If someone goes in leave an encouraging note or a gift in respect don’t steal and spray paint the building. I don’t like when people do that ruin a nice building that could’ve been turned into something better one day.
Thats exactly what I try to do the most. Keep names away. People love untouched places without vandalism. And sadly I've seen so many AMAZING structures arsoned, or just destroyed and thats not ok! To sum it up, humans suck.
Dark Exploration Films I agree on the last part, we literally are giving money to Kylie Jenner to make her Rich for no reason. We’re the dumbest civilization ever.

Dark Exploration Films don’t forget looted, especially for wiring or scrap metal. Damn tweekers.
@@Dr-Random please, don't even remind me of that :)
The computer monitor on with a chair in front of it is a very V/H/S horror movie vibe
Imagine the chair moved by itself
it’s like everybody got up in the middle of the school day and walked out. left everything, in the middle of activities. really makes you wonder, what happened?
I can not believe they left all of this behind!!! Many of those items are VERY expensive!!! As a preschool teacher I would love to have many of those items!!
This video just makes me profoundly sad, maybe because it appears to be a school for small children. It looks as if the kids could just come back the next morning but of course that will never happen.
@Joe Biden BuildBack Perhaps it's the fact that time has passed, the kids are now probably teens or adults, but the school just sits there trapped in a time long gone.
@Joe Biden BuildBack Someone in another post claimed it was shut down in 2014 over a testing scandal. I have no idea if that's true or not. It does look as if the place is being maintained to some extent if six years have passed. But it could be six or ten or twelve. Some of the items in the school, like the VHS tapes and PCs, really appear to be vintage items.
@Joe Biden BuildBack Actually, when I replayed it, there's a calendar that is stuck on October 2014, so it looks like 6 years is about right. I had to zoom in on it to see the date clearly when it appeared on screen.
@Joe Biden BuildBack If it's 2014, they're likely just teens at this point. And, I agree, it seems like a waste at this point in terms of the supplies and equipment just sitting around. Some of the building's starting to deteriorate from roof leaks.

SO TRUE

exactly my thought
True 100%
I feel like the reason why seeing abandoned schools like this makes people feel nostalgic and sad is because of all the great happy memories they had in elementary school. All the fun they had running around, doing all sorts of fun things, and learning fun things...it just brings back that joy, and knowing that one school less won't be able to do that for children anymore is saddening. Every time I think back about my old elementary school, I feel a bit sad since it's been so long and I have so many precious memories, I someday want to go back to that school when I'm a bit older....I wonder if any of the staff that worked there when I went to the school still work there...
I agree
i’m the same. primary school (irish elementary school) were the most nostalgic years of my life, and so enjoyable, that i’m studying in college to become a primary school teacher. Maybe i’ll get a job in the school i went to, who knows :P
You got me wondering and doing some math. If the top grade at the elementary school was 6th grade the students when it closed in 2014 would now be 17 or 18 years old and be the graduating class of 2020. That is kind of spooky.
If the kids were 10-11 in 2014 at highest then they would be turning 17-18 this year because they were born in 2003-2004
If the kids were 9 they would be turning 16
If the kids were 8 they would be turning 15
And so on
@@Daisy_Plus yeah they probably are as i was born in 2004 and am gonna turn 17 in a few months

One thing always occurs to me when I watch these exploration videos: an abandoned building would be a great place to dump a body. I'd forever be anxious that I'll turn a corner and find a corpse wrapped in tarp, or something equally stressful.
Its literally crazy you wrote this comment because recently we found what seemed to be a body wrapped in a tarp during an exploration. Dont know when I'll upload that one but i promise its coming.
@@DarkExploration Intriguing. Always fun to have a little morbid drama (Logan Paul excepted).

it’s weird to see Steam on such an old computer. i remember windows xp. good stuff

steam was around in 2000, the school closed down in 2014. a 6th grader probably installed it in its last years

I do not understand why, when places close down, they just leave everything. It makes no sense! It seems like there should have been an effort to clear everything out as part of the closing process. Especially peoples files and employees personal items.
3Gees Play if there is mold or water damage they can’t
Sometimes, the place has black mold, or people aren't supposed to enter for other reasons.
Especially when they could've donated the books and vhs tapes to charity or other schools or what not
Makayla Hudson as in at the time they close not way after the fact, duh
If my kid went there, I would want all the pictures they’re in and all their art work geesh.

That’s just who made the old furnace. “The Donley Brothers Co” or something... ...”Cleveland Ohio” This could have been installed in any state.
i wouldnt release to much personal info on the net like u just did but then again you use your real name so you obviously dont care
That was a door to a Furnace marked by the manufacturer, Donley Brothers of Cleveland, OH. It was established in 1895 and through the years, provided products to many builders. That could be in Fairbanks, Alaska, for all anybody knows.
Bruh
So is it the school you went to?
Finally someone who doesn't overreact about abandoned stuff
It's so weird to think that 2014 was the last time someone sat in front of that computer
So that computer has been on since 2014? Pretty interesting.
Glowing Dragon22 Yeah no the thermal paste on that thing was probably already ancient, the heatsink probably would've died too. Id say they turned it on for the laughs and giggles.
Why would a elementry school computer have steam on it? Its not the last
Some explorer probably sat there
Another question, why would there be a knife just laying around in the office? That’s weird and suspicious in my opinion.
Could have been the principal's personal break room and they probably cut food up
TheTechPianoPlayerKid there probably was a kitchenette in the office,maybe?
School shooters:attackers need knives to the head?
nancy ann LiBtArD 😫😱💯😞👊
At my old elementary school, they had a little kitchen in the office for faculty and staff to use. One time, after we went on a field trip to a local apple orchard, our teacher used some of the apples we helped pick to make little apple pies for us. It was like a learning thing and also a thing for faculty and staff to make their own food.
Also, I miss schools with windows. The new schools today are like jail cells.
My school got remodeled last summer and it’s nothing but glass windows everywhere. They claim it’s “bullet proof” but when you’re constantly in it walking around it makes you feel pretty uncomfortable
My high school has at least one window in every classroom, but none in the teacher’s lounge.
My high school hasn't changed it still looks the same when it was built in the 30s
Tell me about it the high school I graduated from had windows but most of the classrooms didn't have access to them :/
At my high school there were lots of windows in the rooms that could have windows. A lot of rooms were boxed in the middle so no windows of course that's when it would feel like a jail cell
Omg that’s my old school!!! It was going to be torn down but they never did!! And also that gym was added on closer to the time it was shut down

@@andreaxgi Nah it looks more like they had to leave immediately due to a fire or something.
@@legoclayface well, i just heard it from like 23 people lol
@@andreaxgi That article is for a different school. If you look at images of the playground and outside walls of the school it looks completely different from the outsides and playground of THIS school. Also, don't you think that if THIS ONE closed down due to a scam, they would have WENT BACK to get their belongings? You can also see panels of the ceiling missing and books that have been left open as if students were reading and then just put it down as if they had to leave immediately due to an emergency. Clearly this is a different school than the one the "23 people" were talking about. If I had to make an inference on what happened, it's that there was a huge fire and the fire was so severe that they could no longer use the school, and judging by their outdated technology, they didn't have the sufficient funds to fix it. However, some of the rooms and items (like the VHSes and books, not to mention the Windows XP computer that still works, and even has Steam installed) are intact and don't look burned down at all, so maybe it really wasn't a fire. But it had to be some sort of emergency or disaster that caused them to just abandon it.
@@legoclayface ok damn i didn't know 💀
That principal's office looks really nice tho. Got a nice couch, an instrument, even a flip phone.
Someone's purposely been maintaining this building to some extent, I see missing ceiling tiles everywhere but none fallen
3:24 Now we know why the school shut down. As soon as Disney learned the school was committing copyright infringement, they shut that thing down faster than an out of control ride at Disneyland.

that place has water leaks through the ceiling everywhere and the power is still on. that place is a fire hazard it's just waiting to burn down. Water and electricity do not mix. Awesome video I'm glad I found your Channel.
the fact that stuff was just left scattered around and computors were left on, they probably evacuated during the middle of the day and had to get out of there quickly.
Yeah, no way anyone would come back in and try turning things on. That would never happen, huh?
But why
Well many are saying that the school closed because of a testing scam. When I hear 'testing scam' I think of school officials helping students cheat or perhaps changing the answers to help students (and the school) get a higher grade. But why would that cause everything to look as if people had to leave in a hurry (e.g. books out as if students were looking at them one minutes but quickly had to leave the next minute, etc)? Seems like I remember something like a testing scam happening in Atlanta sometime around 2014.
Abandoned for six years and somehow, one computer is still on and has "steam" installed to it...even though it's an elementary school and has no internet connection so no other trespassers could've fiddled with it. That's super weird.
12:07 that could be a speech therapy room with all toys, board games, and fun decor on wall.

Sometimes the nurses offices have a shower area regardless of the school
Side note that Aladdin vhs tape had a black diamond icon on it and it was listed as a big collector item on hard to find vhs tapes
Really? We have all the Black Diamond Disney VHS tapes. Saved them for our daughters, along with two vcrs that still work. Never knew they were collector items.
@@daveowens9849 I didn't know eather except for another show saying things that you wish you never got rid of that were worth money now and that was there (specific ones only) it didn't say all of them
10 years ago you could buy a car with an original unopened little Mermaid vhs.
THATS WHAT I WAS GONNA SAY, OLD DISNEY VHS TAPES ARE LIKE GOLD
Ikr, if I was there I would probably would go back and forth if I should steal it or not. Don't judge me, I dont steal but I am huge Disney freak
such a beautiful school. as a teacher, it makes me incredibly depressed to see the amount of things that were left behind. they should've at least donated it to the school district. sad.
The photo of classmates is creepy. If I were them, I’d go take thise pictures as reminders
9:24
At that moment it showed a commercial, lmao! I was like "FUCK NO! NOT NOW!!!"
Really makes you be thankful you have a school.
This gives me the MOST liminal space vibes. It gives me immense nostalgia for times back then and takes me back to when I was an elementary schooler back in the day.
I wonder why they still left things in the classrooms and why pictures of those kids were still up. It just gives me a weird vibe when people leave things behind when they close schools down. I mean it's cool for history later on but imagine all those kids are just living their life and they find out that their picture of them in elementary is still on the wall in the school or the baby pictures like that's a little odd
I was thinking the same thing! The fact that there was still a flip phone in one of the rooms makes it feel so...eerie?? Like they were forced to leave/in a hurry??
That school looks like as if everyone just left, and never cared about taking anything
The school looks like it was built in the 60s. My high school has the same style and was built in the 50s-60s. Displays, that brownish brick, the courtyard, the teal color- all of it is present at my school. Unfortunately, a good portion of my school will be torn down soon, while the rest will be renovated. As you guys kept on exploring, I felt that the school was literally my school but kiddy-fied. If the thing in the boiler room was the layout, it has a near identical layout, too.
Syzygy_Cat A I graduated from my HS back in February, actually left in January before the second semester starts at the end of January, and throughout the majority of my HS years, 2016-2020, we’ve seen this HUGE transformation of the campus with demolition of 5 old buildings and building 2 3-story new buildings! But I really enjoyed seeing this transformation, as a matter of facts, my HS is the 2nd LARGEST HS in North Carolina with average of 35,000 students there. And my HS first started in 1951. But I can see a similar transformation with yours.
Syzygy_Cat A my school was built in the 50’s and we haven’t had one renovation yet-
The school was actually built in 1928!
Aw, you should open task manager on that PC and check it's uptime!
I can't believe that all those photos were left behind! You would think that the teachers would have taken them with them, or given
them to the students to take home, or even just thrown out. Not just left hanging on the wall like that.
Makes me wonder how suddenly the school was shut down and the building left unoccupied.
Looks creepy you can just imagine how it sounded back when it was open now dead quiet
this gives me such a strange nostalgic feeling, it's almost sad. i do wonder why the school was abandoned with so many items left behind, i just find it strange.
Some of the stuff in there needs to be saved before real decay sets in. It will feel nice to know that those old computers, tv's, and other appliances and furniture are safe, and not just rotting and being forgotten until the end of time. I'm serious. Someone plz save this cool stuff!

Rewatching this three years later, I wonder what this place looks like NOW. If it's the same, is now completely vandalized, repurposed into something else or unfortunately now condemned. It's been on my mind all this time.
Oh, this school shut down when I was like 8, 9 years old. It wasn't that long ago. Well, now I'm in high school, so I guess it has been shut down for a while now.
I would’ve been in kindergarten!
I would’ve been 10! That feels not to long ago, but now I’m a senior in High school so I guess it was a bit ago
I was in high school
Rather a strange place with old and somewhat newer vibes to it. Looks like a great deal of money was spent on the principal’s office and staff lounge. Definitely seems as though some purpose could be found.
the huge vault and the things in principal's office, there is definitely a story.
@@shadmanbashar6067 The vault is used to keep the students records in lol, they have to have that and only certain people are allowed access
I've been doing "urbex" for close to 30 years. Schools always hit home with me. Just to picture all the laughter in those walls... Now just a memory few remember
I tried urbex once and wound up in the back of a deputy's truck. Fun time
11:40 is that Steam?!?!? On the left, side that’s crazy lmao
This entire place makes me feel super nostalgic, but that gymnastics room was definitely the most nostalgic. I used to do gymnastics a lot as a kid and I remember the building looking a lot like that one but way bigger. I felt like a kid again just seeing you guys playing on all the stuff lol
Abandoned schools are always the creepiest.
Half expecting teacher apparitions hovering around the corners - telling you off for one thing or another.
Well, at least they have trampolines and leftover VHS tapes :)
@servant of jesus I'm starting to believe that.
It's odd how stuff was just left out its almost as if they left in a hurry I noticed the steam icon hmmm.... somebody must've used it after it closed
Lol_Lakitu lol just imagining other explorers coming and being like yeah lemme just sit and game for a couple hours
Maybe it was used for educational games ? Thats my guess. Doubt there was Wi-Fi after closing.
Dark Exploration Films possibly a hot spot from a phone? Not sure, wouldn’t doubt that it could’ve just been from when the school was open though
@@DarkExploration I think someone was in there exploring before you, and downloaded it as a joke, so that’s why the PC had steam on it.
In regards of the PC being on, I cannot give you a straight answer.
Seeing that cafeteria makes me think of the dreams I often have of being in my old schools' cafeterias.
The fact that there's still a turned on computer, may suggest someone still taking care of or checking the abandoned school
Maybe they were in the middle of a pandemic too. LOLMy classroom looks like that...we left everything on that Friday. Going back tomorrow to do some work...see how it looks!
4:11 I legitimately thought that a was a straight up lute on that couch, turns out its an Oud, which according to google costs around 600 dollars, how could someone have left it there? Better yet how has someone not stolen it yet?
I had the exact same thought.
I found a bunch of articles about the school's closing. It closed in 2014. There was a test result scam in 2009/2010, but that was unrelated. The real reason was due to the school district's budget.
The school was built in 1928. It was a tiny school where everyone knew each other. They barely had any money, so they were stuck with tapes and clunky old computers.
Thanks! That's interesting!
With all of the schools that can’t afford equipment you would think they would have given away as much as they could instead of just letting them rot away
It's an abandoned Jewish elementary school. No money to be made from donating. If they can't sell it for money then they let it rot.
My elementary didn't even have trampolines
