The Most DANGEROUS School In America

[@chadtronic]

Which School did you think was in the worst shape? If you also know any updates please let me know down below and I'll try and heart the comment! Also at the end the "14 years" comes from the last news report being from 2014 and staff in the report saying the fire alarms haven't worked for 4+ years even before that.

As a senior student of Pine Hill, I can say with confidence that none of that money ever made it near our smoke detectors of any forms of basic necessities such as school showers, water fountains, and still have yet to have a proper working bell.

[@jabble__]

Is there a way to raise money for these things for y’all and keep it out of the hands of the school board and idk maybe give it to someone in the community who is trustworthy and could actually facilitate these things being fixed? Or find a contractor who will actually finish that big red building so y’all can move to a less dangerous place to learn and live? This might have to be a gofundme thing because people straight up don’t care and that is not fair to you and your classmates.

[@CadgerChristmasLightShow]

The floors popping up in these schools like monsters burrowed under them happened because of trees planted wayyy to close to the building. Tree roots are insanely strong and can burrow right through concrete and wood flooring. People don't realize this when they plant new trees within 10-15 feet of a building or a pathway. It WILL destroy whatever it's near in time.

[@jak3816]

Hardwood flooring pops up like that when a leak or high humidity causes the hardwood to expand, its common in poorly maintained buildings with hardwood or laminate floors.

The concept of this school trying so hard to skirt around the mold issue is fascination to me. Why do so many public establishments ignore the issues of mold so hard? I work at a FOOD company that as this very issue too, with 4 different species of mold have been identified in my workplace. The worst being black mold which is dangerous to our health. Its just so bizarre that almost all of these public places/companies just stopped caring about basic sanitation and maintenance. Idk how, in the case of my job, the FDA hasn't shut us down. Didn't they use to issue citations to schools back in the day for things like this?

[@randomtinypotatocried]

Sadly all the money going to schools is going towards security

[@connorburton1009]

I assume everyone skirts around the issue because the only 100% guaranteed way to remove all of the mold from a building is a large fire.

[@atsukana1704]

What I find incredibly funny is that in the effort it took to organize an event q&a like that, it would have taken just as much to solve the issue. Instead they seem obstinate about actually fixing it.

[@Someone-sc2hk]

sounds like you gotta unionise or quit

[@kathisofy3985]

It sounds like an issue with the school board and superintendent. All of these issues should have been handled by the maintenance department and brought up in district meetings rather than hounding the one school. One of the schools I was at had no AC, was not wheelchair accessible, and brown water coming from the pipes when you would turn on a sink that would flood the underground lunchroom. It was like a poo waterfall. The bathrooms were always closed and students had to use the one employee bathroom in the building. This was a title one school in a poor neighborhood. The good news is they recently leveled that school and are now building a new one.

Pine Hill is an interesting problem because the state (New Mexico) has no authority to look into/regulate the school for corruption or safety issues. The school sits on and is owned by the Navajo Reservation, and answers only to the Department of the Interior. There's a history that spans over a century of the federal government paying very little attention to reservation needs and problems. Until the Dept. of the Interior / Bureau of Indian Affairs / Navajo Government sees it necessary to investigate and weed out corruption, nothing will change.

[@TheClairesable]

It seems like there is definitely some sort of weird embezzlement/corruption going on if the VIA has given them as much money as they say they have

[@frocoshake2107]

Even then the bureau of Indian affairs and the department of the interior have very little say over reservations and what they do. I know there are cases in California where some tribes have straight up expelled over a third of their members, usually on the grounds that an ancestor of theirs from like 100 years ago was adopted, and therefore not a true part of the tribe, and even when the tribe and the family exhume the bodies for DNA testing, and the testing proves that the family member is a part of the tribe, the tribal council and elders still expel them. There is a ton of rampant corruption that simply cannot be addressed because the tribal legal system is divorced from the state and federal courts. It is also important to understand that a lot of tribes don't have democratically elected council members, and in many cases there are financial incentives towards keeping the number of people in a tribe low.

[@SoulStarSketchin]

[@AloofPenguin]

During my wife's first year as a teacher she was training at a middle school that ended up being shut down. The termite and bat infestations were nuts. One of the teachers my wife was shadowing realized that detention wasn't affective for punishment and started having the trouble makers stand next to the termite mound in the room instead until they stopped acting up. We were very happy when my wife got a job at a different school the next year.

[@mavortius8768]

I can see how a termite problem can happen since they are small and live inside of walls and stuff. How does a bat infestation work? I suppose they can sleep in somewhat confined spaces but still they should be pretty easy track down and to catch and release them.

[@goodcommunitylife]

That last school said it received funding from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. I'm going to take a wild guess that that means the school is on reservation land, and meant to be a school for native peoples. If I am right, then that $500,000 was probably the only real money they had seen in years. Reservations are criminally ignored by the U.S. government, and receive very little help in the way of funding things.

[@soogymoogi]

Was waiting to see someone point this out. I feel like there might also be some misuse of funds considering where the money they /did/ get went to and the school board not saying where the money went, but that's probably more the fault of a few people on the top

[@bruhchamp16593]

also if you look inside the unfinished school you can see a black, white, turquoise, and yellow pattern on the floor, these colors are sacred to the Navajo people who live there

[@GreyFoxPancake]

Just found the school, and it is on a Navajo reservation in NM. And the full news report reveals that it was in fact due to federal government neglect, not anyone directly involved with the school. The clips shown are pretty misleading here.

[@GreyFoxPancake]

And the missing money most likely went to the kids that came there with nothing, or got sick, or injured, and feeding them. This is a boarding school on a Navajo reservation. We're talking about people that have been neglected, people that still deal with severe racism/prejudice as soon as they step off of the reservations. That "over $500,000", if it even actually ever got to them, almost definitely went to making sure the kids there were taken care of.

It's almost like schools in the US don't get any funding unless they're located in rich neighorhoods(spoiler alert: they're funded by property taxes in the surrounding neighborhoods, so that's exactly what happens). Though that's *zero* excuse for the last schools and their disconnected/MISSING fire alarms, shew.

[@drawingdragon]

Why do you assume ONLY the last school is guilty of receiving over a BILLION in funding and just saying "nah"? This is an incredibly common occurrence when you blindly throw more tax dollars at bad schools. How does a lack of funding excuse the first school, which was basically dodging a very serious issue, reluctant to tell parents about it, outright lying about replacing the affected ceiling panels, scrubbing off a projectioj screen that seems to not be used at all instead of just throwing it out, and acting like it would take an act of congress to just remove tennis balls from the bottom of chairs? We live in an age where one can easily begin a GoFundMe for something as silly as a personal vacation and recieve millions in donations, yet we rely on involuntary tax dollars and government allocation of those tax dollars to the education of our own children. Tl;dr School choice, school choice, school choice.

[@Eomma2023]

They get funding...for sports and nothing else!

[@JarrodBaniqued]

Best way to fix it would be to have higher levels of government such as the states or feds create a big, big pool of tax revenues (preferably land value rather than property tax), and then spread it around based on need. And then hire a boatload of building inspectors and accountants to make sure no school districts are abusing the money or profiting off our education system. As for that last school, there needs to be way, way more funding for capital projects at the BIA

It also didn't help that there were over a thousand of us and very few teachers. The school was pure mayhem and administrative staff broke the law SO MANY TIMES. And that's just stuff I physically saw with my eyes... Still somehow had quite a few extremely smart people there and one of the got either 1st or 2nd highest SAT score in the state and was able to skip 4 years of college. Edit: I also forgot to mention that almost constantly for two years people would just pull the fire alarms almost daily and sometimes many pullings in one day.

The tennis balls are because the schools dont want to invest in felted feet for the chairs.

The floor bulging like that btw is a sign of burst pipes so like not only would they need to replace the floors they'd need to redo entire sections of plumbing, which is super expensive, and is likely part of why it got so bad. Didn't have the money to replace the plumbing when it started and it just got worse

[@sunshinefine1886]

It’s insane to me that these parents are going off about tennis balls and a little bit of mold. I’m not saying they shouldn’t be upset at the cleanliness of their kids school, but I went to middle school in the exact same building that my mom and grandparents did and the building had no updates or renovations in that time. When it rained certain classrooms would become flooded. There were a few hallways that had to be taped off because mold had overtaken them and they were crumbling. I don’t know if meetings were ever held about it or not but it didn’t seem like anyone was doing anything to fix it. 🥴 And before anyone comes for me, this was an extremely poor small rural area.

[@Nakia11798]

That sucks. Our elementary was newer, as in built in the 70's lol. The high school however? So old. Thankfully they did get some funding, not enough overall, but enough that they could fix the teacher's lounge when it collapsed.

[@Barracuda539]

In case it wasn't obvious the second school with the large lumps in the wood floors is just water damage, I know this because at my high school the auditorium stage had the exact same problem where it essentially looked like a skate park

[@ElliottJayson]

The old Chadtronic format. Love it.

[@meg771]

My school had a mold issue and was actively doing construction while we were there. Yet they denied up and down there was mold. 10 years later the schools wiki mentions the mold problem that supposedly wasnt there.

[@Nakia11798]

Yeah, we tended to have construction done while we were at school as well. I don't think it was ever for mould, rather just that the oldass building needed renovating to stay together.

[@TimmehJay]

My wife was a public school teacher. Roaches were the biggest issue at the last school she worked but mold was pretty common too.

[@SCORPION89199]

This isn't that hard of a fix if our government would stop giving money to other countries we can use all that to repair so many rundown cities and schools and other things that are been derelict four years or even decades. That means that the money they're using to send to Ukraine could be use to fix problems like this and things that are much worse.

[@justsome500yearoldwithsmug2]

17:46 the thing about Micheal Scott is that despite his incompetence, he still managed to have the most successful dunder mifflin branch, but probably due to the employed tbh

[@cicadathegod8277]

If Wayside has better conditions than your school- it’s more than a problem.

[@emberjean4230]

Oh man, my district's been there, buddy. They had to delay the first day for all schools for a week in 2021 (this was around the time I graduated from high school though) cause health inspectors found mold in one of the elementary school classrooms. And our district is pretty well-funded for the most part but unfortunately they fall into the same negligence traps a lot too lol

[@Eomma2023]

Cancelling schools in 2020 will do that. I guess that they didn't think that the schools still needed to cleaned from time to time during Lock Down!

[@PukuDuckie]

I remember my highschool was a really old building and sooo full of mold. It was so full of mold, my ent found a bunch of mold growing and thriving in my sinus cavities. I'm allergic to mold.

[@DeceivingStareYTP]

Props to @yungtown for the great editing!

[@DeadBaron]

11:30 taking bets that the money disappeared. That's the thing about public schools, they receive millions of dollars, but there's no oversight on how it gets spent, it's always abused whether it's inner city or middle of nowhere.

[@Acepilot8Gaming]

Every time I see one of these videos, it makes me both feel bad but also feel grateful for the fact that my school building was, I kid you not, 50% castle brick and the rest of it was a mix of brick and other somewhat strong material

[@C.C--]

My old elementary school had so many of those roof tiles with the coffee lookin stains just like the school with the "mold" had, and nothing was said about it for all the 6 years I was there 😭

[@michaelstevenson5044]

SAME

[@onyxstewart9587]

Same, those stains were all over the celling tiles at my school. All the lights also had hundreds of dead flies in them and one part of the school had a massive ant problem. I remember having to constantly brush ants off my paper and books as they would be crawling all over everything.

[@nicoalex7954]

I went to the first middle school. Currently in the high school nearby, the mold problems are just as bad. They’ve held off on fixing the mold issues for over a decade. The school system’s been putting all their money into a “more inclusive” curriculum and building a new high school. Crazy how some schools in the county will be spotless while others are all moldy

[@Twinklethefox9022]

Oh .. so the stains on the ceiling is mold? *Has flashbacks to her school years* And the last school is just a disaster waiting to happen. Like everything thing has gone wrong and i hope it gets fixed ASAP.

[@drawingdragon]

The stains on the ceiling are leaking water, so not necessarily mold YET but the perfect enviroment for it to grow

[@MintyFreshCupcakes]

Mold is tricky. At my school (I was a teacher) they tended to ignore mold because depending on the type of mold it can be a REALLY expensive fix. Basically having to redo the ducts, carpets, even the drywall depending how bad it is. One of my coworkers got this awful rash and respiratory infection and was very sick from the Mold in the vents of her room but she was basically told she was crazy and that there wasn't anymore mold. Then they find it, it's bad, but because we are in a modular and we are "renting it" they can't do anything except spray every once in a while to prevent it from getting worse

[@dustee3598]

I lowkey want to visit that last place that was featured because it doesnt seem real. Like they dont give a frick about anything there, it may be a fantasy paradise. Or a dystopian society. Either way it would be interesting.

[@mavohq]

i went to a private school system that marketed itself as prestigious but even then they couldn’t bother to update or fix anything. we had no ac, one of our water heaters nearly exploded, paint was peeling off the walls, and we had many stains on the ceiling tiles. the performing arts center was clearly lacking, the room i had choir in was really hard to access and had a heater that nobody dared to touch because you could either break it or turn it permanently on, the windows and ceiling leaked, and there was a bug problem in the warmer months. one of my classrooms smelled so moldy that it would give me a headache. doesn’t even matter if you receive proper funding if your system is corrupt unfortunately. (also i was just looking through old photos and found a pic my friend sent me of a door handle to one of the buildings that just fell completely off when he tried to use it, we laughed so hard at it)

[@JM_Friends]

No lie…My school was too cheap to hand back trip money for the Senior Trip until police got involved…over $2000 worth of going to Florida in the pockets of a board that are money hoggers.

[@michaelstevenson5044]

fricking ridiculous

[@dumontpictures7303]

In my high school we have ceiling tiles but they were the old ceiling tiles that are square and they used to glue up on the ceiling. And the tiles were there since the school opened back in the 1950s. Because of that the tiles would fall down from age and they were everywhere. One tile almost fell on my head. If you went to the classrooms you could even see some empty spots with gule residue where they once lived. But the funny thing is that, no one complained. They don't even replace the falling tiles. There's just rooms with empty gaps and gule residue. I guess everyone was just used to having tiles fall on there heads. lol But hey at least they were not moldy.

my old elementary school was torn down because of mold. Its weird, seems to be a common practice among public schools to just let mold get bad.

I wouldn’t be surprised if that PineHills money was embezzled. And went towards someones shopping sprees, vacations and new cars 🤔

That Most Dangerous School in America segment starting with the drum opening to Money For Nothing by Dire Straits for absolutely no reason

You can never be rid of all the mold. If you’re in a building, there is mold there.

[@AllycatlovesAG]

I'm from British Columbia Canada. I'm sure we have some run-down and dangerous public schools too, but I am grateful I had a good public education. In my city, private schools exist, but public ones are much more common. The worst we had it was the locks not working on the bathroom doors in elementary school. They always broke off, so they never bothered fixing it, and you always brought a buddy to the bathroom with you to hold the door closed.

[@BobbiRakus]

Ever since he brought back this style of videos, I always click on it whenever he uploads! 😁

[@GreenWolfKate]

I remember back like 10 yrs ago in my high school. in the older areas of the school, one of the computer labs would have water from the bathroom in the next room leak through the wall on the floor.... Right by MULTIPLE power bars on the floor. Our school paper did an article on all the old ceiling tiles that were stained/falling in the hallways. Lots of the older parts of the building had bad or no working AC in TEXAS! And we weren't allowed to have open windows. Woof. Though I remember seeing on social media that apparently our high school had NO A/C during those TRIPLE digit heat days... Lord...

[@CinnamonGrrlErin1]

The school officials in the first clip have big "mayor from Jaws" energy

[@Jacqueline_Oat]

Honestly i didn't know that when those ceiling tiles look like that, it's mold. I always knew it was from rain but it never clicked that they probably all are moldy.

[@macyiguess180]

I’m honestly not surprised to see the BIA running that death trap. Also, dorms? *sweats in Indigenous generational trauma* As an indigenous person, I would NEVER want to send my child to a boarding school ran and funded by the federal government. However, these parents probably didn’t have much choice for a number of reasons.

[@richardherndon451]

I worked at a school at an IT tech. That first story made me laugh. Our school had stained ceiling tiles everywhere, mold, asbestos in the walls, floor, and furniture, a leaking ceiling, toilets that wouldn't stop flushing, an HVAC system that was very loud (people called my office a washing machine because of how loud it was), and some of the floors were warped. The door bar for the door in the second video, they're not really supposed to be attached to the ground. It is supposed to be removeable to move pallets and large objects in and out. The only thing wrong was that base to the pole was missing.

[@darkwolfx9959]

I’m infuriated. Someone is just stealing money. I’d want an investigation in these schools before they receive more money then hire someone competent to green light construction and cleanup.

[@vivalanina]

The fire alarm being disconnected in case of a fire isn't the only issue. If the fire alarm doesn't work, then they would have had years without a fire drill. Where kids don't learn what to do during a fire, or how to stay calm.

[@AutisticPenguin0923]

ok, I think we all know that the school with no fire safety measures is actually a place to trap scrapped animatronics
