If they died more than 50 or 60 years ago, there will be nothing left of them anymore.

Naia's bones are intact after an estimated 12,000 years.

Because Naia died in a cave. In dry conditions skeletons can fossilize.

Your theory is already impossible by the simple fact that there weren't even 200 kids at the school at the time. Only 60 to 70.

No obvious specific cause.

I stated multiple causes and they are all verifiable by people who went to such schools.
