In March and April of 2008, I was able to gain access to Waco High School and photograph the building before it was closed down and stripped out. It was great to be able to explore the entire building and go into places I was not allowed as a student. The boiler room was great fun for me to explore as a spelunker I love to explore the darkest places.
It was very sad to see the building is such terrible condition. Paint peeling off the walls, ceiling tiles missing, broken glass on the floors, desks piled in the rooms, trophies smashed, broken windows, and trash everywhere. It was not a safe or pleasant place, but I loved every second of being there.
I hope these pictures do not destroy memories.
