Too bad that this old high school is no longer in use as it looks like in great condition. Since it in good condition, maybe the school district could find other uses for it. It is such a shame as I would buy it for my self to be leased out for doctor's offices, lawyers and other types of small buinesses.
@patsaxon Sadly, there isn't enough business in the area to find a use for the school. Even with all the oil activity in the area, there just isn't enough. Too bad: it's a great building.
@Reeceyboy101101 There was a lack of students and not many people moving to the area (at least at that time). Had they been able to stay open a few more years, they might have really benefitted from all the oil activity in the area now.
i wanna just go there and fill up baskets of stuff like trophies the things in the science rooms and that and if there was any electricals i would have them (im not poor or homeless)
@rhyskallen I was there because I was hired to inventory the chemicals in the lab. I was paid by being allowed to take any of the science equipment I wanted. I also have a few tables from that school in my classroom.
I think this proves why trophies are worthless. They sit in trophy cases for decades, taking up space without much attention being paid to them, and then are abandoned when the school closes. What a waste of money and resources.
WainsCOATing? Really? WainsCOTing, geez... And a "photocopier"? Try mimeograph! No wonder the school closed if this is the caliber of students it graduated.
I like it when he says "I'm going to be quiet for a while so you can hear what an old school sounds like." The next thing you hear is the happy background music. ;-)
Nice looking school. Reminds me a little of Bastian's school in Neverending Story. The attic too a little. Oh, look at those Amityville Horror orange slice windows. That's what I call them. :)
Theres a big change in my school district, they've just built a new high school that can fit thousands of students comfortably with all new technology, and they're not doing anything with the old one (which was only about the size of a middleschool anyways). If it's going to be abandon I'm looking forward to possibly exploring it in the future.
there must not be any tweekers or junkies in sd,in my city that place would have been striped of cooper wire and anything of value over night.damn meth heads.cool video and i forgot there is no graffitti no sur 13 shit or taggers around here it would be covered.
there must not be any tweekers or junkies in sd,in my city that place would have been striped of cooper wire and anything of value over night.damn meth heads.cool video
I would imagine, that people in that part of the country will have respect for it, and not vandalize it, and spoil it... I lived in Malta, MT for a while, and saw a real nice High School burn by accident. They had the best intentions for it. They had just renovated the wood floors, and sealed them with Varathane. Unfortunately, the place caught fire, from the fumes, and burned it down. That city had to bus the students away, from what was a nice neighborhood, walk to school!
I don't see why they don't just turn a nice building like that into a community center or library or something. It's gotta have some use otherwise the vandalism will be through the roof!
@agrundstromer Take a look at the abandoned schools in Detroit, and you will learns what a looted and vandalized school look like. Why the hell would you suggesting to another to loot an abandoned building. Your tax dollars will end up having to clean up the mess left behind by those who take you up on the suggestion. I guess you must be one of those Obama supporters who think Americans don't pay enough taxes as it is. Maybe you should grow up and take some pride in America for a change.
@agrundstromer Neither does your buddy Obama's friends General Electric. They paid 0 taxes in 2010, but Obama has the CEO of GE in his administration because he loves multi-billionaire Corporate Leaders who donate to Democrats.
@onevike Hey, I can see where you're coming from, but more often than not abandoned building never get reinhabited, so cleaning them up isn't necessary. Besides, I don't believe this building is technically "abandoned" in the true sense, as there is still tons of valuable goods in there, more like they closed down, are are simply using the building as a huge ass storage facility until they can move out all the valuable goods. There's nothing wrong with looting an abandoned building. When
@onevike someone abandons something, that means they forfeit their ownership of that something, whatever it is. Therefore, it's up for grabs. As far as my taxes going up due to looters. where's the logic in that? Seriously? You're removing an un-owned item from an abandoned building, how would that translate into a tax increase. Last time I checked, governments don't give funding OR financially support unused abandoned buildings there buddy. When it comes to demolishing it, yes, in that case
@onevike yes, tax dollars would contribute to the cost of demolishing the building. Otherwise, removing miscellaneous unaccounted for items in abandoned structure won't affect the taxpayer. Even if it did, i'm pretty sure the dollar value of any goods removed would be much much more than any potential tax increase anyway. Cheers.
It would seem that in the long run it would be cheaper to "lease" it for free to anyone who could use it instead of letting it go to ruin. I saw an old school that was turned into apartments and another that became an antique store. My parent's old school was demolished and turned back into farm land.
I am thankful our local school district uses old school buildings as offices for the district. There are hundreds of uses for old buildings like this.
It does look like a building in good repair. I noticed the attic even seems well insulated.
It is kind of a strange feeling in the these midwestern states: declining enrollment, out migration, aging population, retiring babyboomers, people moving south and west.
I live in central Wisconsin. In my community we have 30% of house units vacant. I've heard its even worse in parts of N.Dak directly south all the way to Oklahoma.
As young teens back in the mid 80's, we broke into an abandoned school in Love Canal, NY. I found school books that still referred to blacks as "Negros". We rode our bikes in the halls, made forts in classrooms & filled them with furniture from the offices & we fought using disassembled abacus, you'd like whip them so the beads went flying down the stalk (cool weapon). We glued large wood/toy building blocks to the walls/ceilings. It had a pool, but no windows in the room. It was spooky.
@neoprotwo I was actually there working. I was asked to inventory the chemicals in the science room for safe disposal. Naturally, I took advantage of my chance to explore!
@TheSecrecyOfSolitude Right now it still looks good. However, one of my hobbies is photographing schools like this, and I've seen a potential future for it in other communities. I hope that Rhame can find a way to save and use it.
It does not seem to have a fire alarm system. The attic looks creepy, lol. I don't see anything wrong with it, it is weird that they abandoned it. Are people aloud to walk in an abanded building? Also, how did you get in, were the doors open?
@TssCman123 I was there working (inventorying the chemicals in the science room for safe disposal). It's a great building with a few leaks in the roof. Unfortunately, the district was short on students and the teachers were all of retirement age (with limited prospects for replacement). They decided to close for the benefit of the students.
@ViperStarFilms It's in North Dakota. I've seen even some really ancient buildings and the only destruction in them is environmental, not people. It just smells like an old building.

could u take any of the items in there? wow i would take a big ass bag to take alot of that and put it in the trunk, theres still alot of stuff there...no one is there to watch u right>?
If there is one thing I will never understand, Why would they just completely abandon it, and leave all that stuff? You think they would take all the equipment and such to use elsewhere...
dude, i'm in art 3 class at my high school. if that was my art work in the class i'd be pissed!!!!!!!!! it takes soooooo long to create something. why the hell will they leave the kids art to decay!?!?!?!
@TwoEyeCyclops Hard as it is to believe, it really is abandoned. I have a lot of the science equipment in my own classroom now. I took this video because it's so hard to believe that a building this nice needs to be abandoned.
I hope you were able to salvage the wonderful artwork that was left on the ceiling. I'm sad to see that alot of schools now dont have art programs. I would hate to think that all the hard work they did was disposed of.
theres a bennigans rest. in miami thats been abandoned for over 3 years that still has its lights on. If they didnt leave the power on the place would melt into a pile of mold.
While I can commend you for this vid, I cannot praise you enough for being a TEACHER. I sometimes wish I didn't spend over thirty years in industry, but I'm retired now. If I could go back I would consider being a teacher also. Being able to go to school to learn is what has made me what I am today. A good teacher can teach in any kind of building that is considered a school, no matter what condition that building is in.
@WaskiSquirrel i was an aide for a while in my city and i know how hard it can be too get supplies. Im glad to hear that things are being used! thanks for the reply!
Wow! I went to Kindergarten there! The Kindergarten was in the high school and then 1st through 6th grades were in the elementary school, 7-12 in the high school.
You can really tell how well maintained the building was, because the renovation took place in the early '80's. I'm really sad to see it go. It was a wonderful place to grow up!
i love wandering into abandoned buildings and looking for random shit to steal!! oh my god the things i'd do to come to this school and just scavenger through everything.
no way its abondon why would they leave all that neat stuf there and we need muney to get new stuf hello look at all these stuf and perfectoly good books tv,s and you know stuf wow is the goverment stupid
@sgthootnany I was there to assist in properly clean the place out...particularly the chemicals. A lot of the science equipment is now in my classroom (as payment for the work I did).
It disgusts me that perfectly fine buildings sit abandoned like this. Why build it just to leave it sit to rot later? It would probably make a nice apartment building, they should renovate. It's about the same size as the old school house in my home town that was abandoned for decades. They recently renovated it into apartments. My mom used to go to the school.
my high school is gonna be abandon in 2011-2012, cuz it's gonna be in a new location plus my school is very old. im very excited to be in the new school once it's done.

While I can commend you for this vid, I cannot praise you enough for being a TEACHER. I sometimes wish I didn't spend over thirty years in industry, but I'm retired now. If I could go back I would consider being a teacher also. Being able to go to school to learn is what has made me what I am today. A good teacher can teach in any kind of building that is considered a school, no matter what condition that building is in.

@alyser100 Most of the equipment (except the really old stuff like the ditto machine) is now in use in other school districts.

@GrenadeChick99 Good catch! I tried to use theme music from TV shows that took place in schools.

Wow! I went to Kindergarten there! The Kindergarten was in the high school and then 1st through 6th grades were in the elementary school, 7-12 in the high school.
You can really tell how well maintained the building was, because the renovation took place in the early '80's. I'm really sad to see it go. It was a wonderful place to grow up!

@cody1800212 I think that if they were offered enough money, they would sell it. Personally, I would love to see it used for something.

a school that has been kind of empty for a mere few months? not exactly exciting exploration there.

@orchote True. I wasn't interested in excitement. I wanted to document an old building.

i love wandering into abandoned buildings and looking for random shit to steal!! oh my god the things i'd do to come to this school and just scavenger through everything.

@Knhyd I was a legitimate scavenger. There isn't much left to take.
WaskiSquirrel 1 year ago
@Knhyd I don't steal, but part of my payment for the work I did here was that I was allowed to take a lot of the science equipment for my classroom.

@sgthootnany I was there to assist in properly clean the place out...particularly the chemicals. A lot of the science equipment is now in my classroom (as payment for the work I did).

@sgthootnany It's gone now. I was part of a team that removed the "good" equipment for use at other schools.

It disgusts me that perfectly fine buildings sit abandoned like this. Why build it just to leave it sit to rot later? It would probably make a nice apartment building, they should renovate. It's about the same size as the old school house in my home town that was abandoned for decades. They recently renovated it into apartments. My mom used to go to the school.
