Kids Vanished, Left Behind RARE Items in Abandoned School 🎒

In this episode, I will show you something extraordinary - an abandoned Roman Catholic elementary school frozen in time, from the eerie hallways to the forgotten classrooms and the decaying auditorium. This place is a time capsule of history and lost memories. When stepping inside, I couldn't believe in the preservation of history and the rich traditions that have been carefully maintained over the years. This school is over a century old, and you have to think about the generations of children that passed through its halls and classrooms, leaving everything behind. This place almost looks like it should be in a museum. It's so well preserved that it seems like everyone just left yesterday. But that isn't the case. The school opened in 1892 but abruptly closed in 2012. Now, I ask you, my subscribers, to come inside with me, and let's explore and see what we can find.

Thanks!

[@RangerRickTV]

Thank you again Majorie this helps so much 🥹

[@marjorieperry3745]

Ranger Rick you cannot begin to realize of how many memories that you brought to me!!!

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Thanks for sharing 👍🤓👍. Those theater seats are awesome. Beautiful stained glass windows. Cool building for sure. Beautifully made

[@RangerRickTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@jayfrazier5539]

Hey Rick, thanks for the awesome video! The old auditorium was my favorite part.

[@RangerRickTV]

Hell ya! Thanks 👍

[@malkakossoy3747]

I love the fact that you got permission to be there. Unlike other explorations, this one, there is less of a chance for you to get caught because they know ahead of time. Because it still has an alarm, and seems like it has protection, there won't be any vandalism. A great find!

[@marjorieperry3745]

I JUST ❤ THE AUDITORIUM BECAUSE OF THE GORGEOUS ARCHETCHIAL designs that ceiling is drop dead gorgeous from all of the carvings that was hand carved in the ceilings ❤!!!

[@nicoletanis3703]

RangerRick, I'm catholic as well but I no longer go to church that much. I pray at home. I love that wonderful virtual tour, nice school. Thanks! 🙏

[@RangerRickTV]

You're welcome.

[@shaaniiiiiiiiiii]

I love watching your videos every week, this is absolutely fascinating. Thanks Ranger Rick, love from South Africa! 💚

[@RangerRickTV]

Thank you! 😊

[@josefinesvenson638]

I loved the smell of books in the library at my first elementary school on a sunny day.

[@dianelafreniere1362]

This is exactly what Catholic schools looked like in the early 60s. Brought back a lot of memories of that timeframe when I was in elementary school in New England!! Thank you for this beautifully filmed gem!!!

[@skylarwinchester9344]

Great video, very interesting. well all abandoned videos are! - just a heads up... you misspelt ranger on the chalk board and wrote 'rager' Nothing to worry about! I have ocd and notice things like that lol

[@noneofyourbusiness6419]

😂😂😂 that’s what I was coming on here to say I thought that was funny when I saw it too

[@TheOGDorothy]

I hope people don't go there and vandalize it. The chalk board drawings are beautiful. Hope it's able to reopen as a catholic school again.

[@PinInTheAtlas]

I think this building is still being used for something. There were fresh flowers at 10.40. Maybe they use it for Sunday school or services, maybe language? Seems really strange that all the power is on and the clocks work! Very interesting! Thanks for sharing

[@RangerRickTV]

Ya very strange, I still have yet to figure out all the details. I only know that they stopped using it as a school in 2012.

[@marjorieperry3745]

The Architecture in this school 🏫 is so beautiful

[@marjorieperry3745]

I ❤ you Ranger Rick for bringing back the great memories of my School 🏫 days!!!😢

[@RangerRickTV]

you're very welcome.

[@marjorieperry3745]

No doubt this does definitely bring back memories of my school 🏫 days!!!!

[@big.ronwisconsin9598]

Awesome video I do have to comment you are fairly young as you graduated in 2001 myself I graduated in 1985. Amazing how time flys by

[@RangerRickTV]

My thoughts exactly.

[@AndekrisHouse]

Wow, another Spectacular Video, Thankyou RR for taking us on this journey 🤓 what an amazing School ❤

[@RangerRickTV]

You're very welcome.

[@AndekrisHouse]

@@RangerRickTV Also Rick l did see that Mysterious shadow in the corner on the other side of the Concert hall, you have such composure, l would have run out screaming 😲

Abandoned schools and hospitals are my favorites.

[@mistyvideotaped]

some of those desks are unlocking memories of the best back cracking

[@marjorieperry3745]

GREAT MEMORIES OF MY SCHOOL 🏫 DAYS!!!

[@TheOGDorothy]

Definitely do more schools. Them and malls are my favorite.

[@marjorieperry3745]

This place is definitely Gorgeous no doubt 😮

[@marjorieperry3745]

THIS PLACE REMINDS ME OF MY SCHOOL DAYS 🏫 😮

[@trollingtime1234]

looked like a pretty nice school. amazing on how well kept it is. i feel like there could hopefully be someone doing some maintenance on this building and keeping it as clean as it should. i wonder if they stopped using the auditorium prior to closing the school because of how decayed it is compared to the rest of the school. or whoever watches this place doesnt really go to the auditorium as much as the other parts.

[@marjorieperry3745]

Totally awesome 😮!!!

[@allybooks0606]

@ ranger Rick just watching this now. What a beautiful school.

[@thestars386]

Yes there was a shadow, I saw it as well. When you were in the auditorium on the second level where the seating was.

[@susancarter9351]

Sad that the parish schools are being closed down and property sold. Immaculata HS in Leavenworth was sold a few years ago. Students had to relocate. 😢sad fir the alumina.

[@jchenowethprescott]

The projector is a smart board. You can interact with the images/videos

[@susancarter9351]

Appears someone is keeping it clean.

[@TrashorTreasure-ie3sz]

Hi Rick, I absolutely love you get permission when possible ❤

[@RangerRickTV]

Absolutely!!

[@marjorieperry3745]

During my school 🏫 days I remember those school desks I sat in and you reminded me of when I sat in those exact same school 🏫 desks and isn't that is the exact same type of school desks that I sat isn't that Amazing??!!!!

[@jennifernavolis4018]

This is one of Art & I’s favorites!🎉

[@RangerRickTV]

It's honestly one of mine to and thank you.

[@jennifernavolis4018]

@@RangerRickTVyou are welcome! We watched most of the current series already. I will never forget the mansion with the cloud room and the peacocks painted on the walls! And the mansion that was built in the early 1900s that belonged to a coal mine owner in Ohio- one of the most unique beautiful houses, even with the decay! I have a terrible mold allergy but love hiking and exploring. Needless to say, we love your work and really appreciate being able to live vicariously through your documentation! You do such a good job with the narration and we love your sense of humor and curiosity. Be safe, stay true & curious, my friend!🙏😊🙌

[@dennisematranga2681]

Thanks!

[@malkakossoy3747]

The room with the toys could have been for after care for young children under the age of 5 I'm not sure what the age groups are in this school. But it just seemed like you could move all those desk/chairs off to a side, bring the small table out and set up a early childhood classroom. As a teacher of young children myself, I definitely felt more of a connection in that room, Felt very warm and cozy. The other rooms, to me felt cold.

[@illburnmyselfforreal]

Old school, very sad. Should restore it

[@marjorieperry3745]

Your a trip Ranger Rick, So funny 😁

[@benjaminclingaman7551]

Hey Rick Thanks for not passing up this opportunity. You graduated in 2001My older sister graduated the same year.

41:11 poor clock. can't believe this is near graveyard school must be haunted too! Any playground? Get close ups of swings?

[@mond000]

Old World/antediluvian building for sure.

[@thestars386]

There is some very old writing on the walls on the 4th floor when you went up there at the end of the video. I thought I saw something from the 1920s written up there. There was something from the 1970s you showed. There was definitely some old writing on those walls up there.

[@marjorieperry3745]

Must be the Auditorium of which you can have special special shows!!!!

[@RangerRickTV]

Possibly, it looks extremely outdated compared to bottom floor tho.

[@susancarter9351]

Appears this facility was still in use.

[@marjorieperry3745]

I remember the Pledge of Aligence to the flag and it makes me 😢cry because I remember the good Ole days of my schooling 🏫 and I will NEVER forget the hard work that I had to do back then and I had so much fun 😁 back then 🎉😂!!!

[@marjorieperry3745]

Way to go Ranger Rick 👏!!!

[@cherylriffle6871]

I saw the shadow too. I think you stirred some shit up in there. lol

[@colinmccormick7925]

Good video.

[@TheOGDorothy]

Radiators tend to "knock" when heating 😄 I grew up with them when I was a kid. They probably need to be "bled".

[@RangerRickTV]

Ahhh ya I was wondering that

[@michellematthews21075]

If the school closed down in 2012, I’m wondering why on the chalkboard there is an exam announcement on January 7th of 2024?!?!

[@RangerRickTV]

I was wondering that myself.

[@LOAT_Official]

People were probably in there role playing

[@marjorieperry3745]

Beautiful memories 💖 😮

[@RangerRickTV]

The best!

[@helenr991]

Them doors what are lock they might be a principal's office what should have keys for them rooms

[@ramonamcquien2236]

Enjoyed the school. Shame is just sitting there deterating, but cost to Restore it. Private schools just don't have the revenue to restore the school. Was the church ,cemetery and school all the same catholic church. Possibly using it in recent past for religion clasees for chiildren going to public school. Always want more information on your videos. Definitely a school through high school.

[@illburnmyselfforreal]

42:10 still ticking?! See the wire on the right side??

Where is this school? I don't understand the secrecy. TELL US.

[@taurkovian10]

Maybe it's to protect it from vandalism.

[@HeidiTeutsch-pt5pj]

Where are they

[@elihernandez330]

Now that it's known it's getting vandalized.

I got permission

[@robertmailhos8159]

120 years of education that is gone thing is what is up with the cemetery next door to the school

[@emmaj4025]

Probably because the church is there? As it's a Catholic school and church ?

[@robertmailhos8159]

@@emmaj4025 that is the truth about that

[@susancarter9351]

Parish church, school and cemetery. Priest house is probably on the property too. Typical Catholic arrangement. It was and still is used.

@@susancarter9351 thanks for the info on this video on this school

[@bertgerry2945]

I think the school had to close when Disney stopped funding it.

[@RangerRickTV]

Ya probably so.

[@tracyholliday361]

At 10.28 minutes in the date 9.10.23 is on the blackboard along with writing. Certain this school closed end of 2023. The audiotorium certainly stopped being used many years previously. In the teachers kitchen there were new cases of bottled water and packs of soft drinks. Lavatory is a word used worldwide and means toilets! On one of the picture drawings at 39.54 mins the date on it was 10.4.22. Please be more observant of dates that are right infront of you and do some reserch before a look round as it will be more relevant and upto date rather then being clueless and giving wrong info.

[@RangerRickTV]

It closed in 2012 as a school.
