I can't believe I was still subbing at the time I made this thread...that feels like forever ago!

Maybe I AM getting old.

I was mostly in the elementary schools at the time. I couldn't tell you if those schools were haunted or not.
I KNOW the High School I used to work at as a TA was haunted. I heard a story about a custodian who met his unfortunate end by falling through a roof in the old gym. The old gym was near the science wing and I always got an eerie feeling being in that part of the building. Especially if the lights were off.
I've also heard stories about hearing doors slam late at night. I never had that experience and I'm glad I didn't. Apparently though there weren't any doors that were open to say so. I bet that sounded weird.
But other than toilets and urinals flushing by themselves as you walk by (automatic toilets...don't even get me started on those...

) I didn't experience anything out of the ordinary beyond feeling creeped out by the gym and science wing if I happened to be there late at night or early in the morning before the lights were on, or in the older part of the building.
Since then I've changed school districts and work at an elementary school that's about 25 minutes away. As far as I know I haven't experienced anything out of the ordinary at that particular building...yet. A loooong story for why I changed districts though...but that gets a bit off topic. (I really enjoyed working at the high school and with the older kids by the way and I hope to go back to that eventually. Or at least teach my target age group of middle school, this school district didn't have a middle school. So it's not like I hated working with older kids... I had some awesome co workers too.)
But...over the summer I joined the paint crew and got to help make a really old school look nice that was built in the late 1930's. I've heard it was built in either 1938 or 1939...but either way I wouldn't be surprised if THAT school was haunted. It was recently acquired when the county wide merge happened. I enjoy the old timey feel of the school, but the only thing I don't like is the dust and mold in it. I hate having allergies. >>
