I had a tour through this school in a remote PA town over the weekend. This school was originally opened in 1917, restoration efforts are currently underway.

I just love your photos in old buildings. You seem to capture a moment in time in every photo. Awesome!
……eerily enchanting images!
i really like this series..that rope reminds me of elementary school.
🙂
Nice shots! I was there last fall. Seems like Kent has been doing a lot of work lately, esp. in the gym.
Stunning photos, but haunting in a way too.
That book on Bacteriology looks really interesting. I would be sooo tempted to steal it. I’m serious!
Fascinating. The auditorium photo reminded me of the school I went to in 7th grade. Older school in downtown Honolulu (Central Intermediate) and would have been built in this same era.
