Thank you for the video! Graduated in class of 1971, this video brought back so many memories! It's a shame to see the condition it is in now.

Graduated from this school in 94...brings back so many memories.

I as well attended cvpa in the 90s, and although the tour was amazing and creepily nostalgic, he could never describe what this footage means!!! Unless u walked those halls, u could never feel the pain this sends through your soul!!!

I explored there before, great classic place! If I had the money i would definitely buy and restore to its full glory.

I graduated from Central VPA in 2000, and your video so far is the clearest one of the abandoned property I have seen since. The cafeteria for which you were searching is in the basement, and I instantly recognized the library on the 2nd? floor. The list you found in the 1st floor Chemistry classroom was dated in Fall 2000, and I remember their names and the one on the lost ID. I have an identical one from 1997 and 1999. Thanks for the video. It's a shame it has gotten so bad.

I went here my freshman year in 1991. Remember my first school dance on that warped gym floor hearing Red Hot Chili Peppers playing. Sitting in those stairwells listening to my Walkman before the first bell rang.

I went to Central High school in the 1960’s. My wife, Marge, graduated from here in 1964. What a shame to see what has happened to such a historical landmark. Many, many happy memories were made at this school!

My mother went here. She mentioned that there was a boys AND a girl's gym. Suppose that's why there is two.

Enjoying my rainy day off with exploring videos and ice cream!

I live in St louis mo and love to see abandoned place where I live

The reason it was abandoned sounds a lot like many of the reasons Detroit’s public schools were abandoned.

Hi from michigan ✌✌ just found your channel cool explor.

Looks good

C/O 94..4th floor was Art classes..that winding stairwell in front leads you outside (fire escape route)..this building was once so GREAT!

Hi, I wonder why they had so many science labs ??. A cool video, thanks for sharing.

I went to the high school there! That's so sad to see it like this

there is well over that price in scrap copper and steel in that building

It's kind of depressing seeing such a beautiful school abandon ....It looks like a school from Full House or Family Matters ....

My grandmother was a student there in 1926 when the tornado hit. I believe some students were killed. She told me she was in the staircase heading to the basement when the roof was blown off.

Where in stl can I find it

I need to make a trip to St Louis, looks like there's plenty of awesome abandoned places there and it's only a 13 hour drive from San Antonio

crazy how Cleveland closed 2 years later and they look kinda the same

Where is this located?

Where do you learn about/where these abandoned places are?

This place is awesome! I’ve been before, the roof top is dope! 👀

First looks like a school I went too

School 😢needs to torn down for safety Reasons someone can easily get hurt in that dump Of a hs by today s standards 😮😮

It would have been more interesting if these goons had any idea what they were actually exploring. This was my high school.

These guys know nothing about the school, no history or anything. Wonder if they went to Carr school, That's a sad story

I went there from 95 to 96 participating in the end of the desegregation program. I was bussed into North City from South county. I honestly wish I could say nice things about the school in the curriculum in the building but I just cannot because they're just was not any. The students I made friends they were awesome but everything else was just downright deplorable. I went back to Hopewell Senior high my sophomore year and I was either behind because I literally learned nothing my freshman year at that school. I counted the days our English teacher showed up it was a total of 86. This was the first time I ever was judged based on my race. Or my assumed grace. Death and faculty both assumed I was full White and I was degraded for being assumed White. I'm native American but anyway it was culture shock and the surrounding neighborhood was full of crime poverty and drugs. And math we would sit out on a balcony and watch the crackheads in the crack house across the street and I'm not over exaggerating or being dramatic. I remember going to English class up on I think it was the third floor and one day my foot just went through the floor like I feared the floor was going to collapse but my foot actually went to the floor. We had to have clear backpacks because they assumed we had guns we had to go through metal detectors and just a three streets that surrounded it will terrifying it was constantly something going on yelling screaming gunshots I'm not being over dramatic I swear I still have nightmares about that year in school. It was definitely an experience and I'd like to say I'm grateful for having it and having the opportunity to do it but if I had to do all over again I would have never done it. The neighborhood was unsafe the building was unsafe the staff and the faculty were incompetent the school district was impoverished it's just sad that it was like that. And I'm not saying the high school that I returned to was wonderful it has its issues but it was night and day from this high school

Kind of looks like a couple homeless people might be living here

Fix it up! Turn it into something!
