It is a great thing that only two of the structures pictured are now condos, the rest are still schools. I would live in one the converted school/condos in a heartbeat as they have hardwood floors in the classrooms, 15 to 24 foot high ceilings and enormous windows. But you are so right that there will be little appeal in moving into and living in a modern day school in the future.
