My stories pale in comparison to the ones here.

Besides, there was nothing really THAT interesting. The worst fights would be over in a matter of seconds and the same people would then play football on the same team the next day as if nothing happened.

If anything bad happened to me in my school years, a personal firewall prevents me from accessing information. Selective memory FTW.
As for others, I don't really know. Nobody died I guess.

Eh, not much in high school growing up. A suicide here or there, but no shootings, raqes, etc.

At the local university while I was there, there was a house fire that claimed 3 students who were passed out drunk....didn't even wake up. Two other drinking fatalities that year. The next year two hockey players slammed a bike rider into a wall...and the cyclist died. Not bad for a town of 13,000 and student body of 9,000

Wow. Some of you went to some crazy schools. My experience back in high school had nothing even close to these crazy things. Besides a fake bomb threat, a kid that loved to pull the fire alarm, and a student with a BB gun across the street from my school that was thought to be a sniper, nothing crazy really happened. We had some graffiti, fights, and students drinking and smoking pot in the bathrooms, but I don't exactly call that crazy. The amount of people skipping class made the school have a police officer patrol the school and cameras installed everywhere, but I thought that was overkill.

In middle school, a buddy of mine somehow accidentally drilled through his hand with a drill press in wood shop class. Not a clue how the heck that happened.

During the 9th grade in my metal shop class, a guy was using the lathe (?) machine (used to shave off metal). He put the machine on the fastest setting (2,000 RPM?) and he forgot to take the chuck key out (used to loosen/tighten the grip on the piece of metal being shaved. The chuck key was a piece of metal in the shape of a 'T'). He then turned it on, and the lathe quickly rotated and the chuck key hit and broke his hand. Then later that year, the metal shop teacher had to wear an eye patch for a month because a piece of metal shot into his eye.

In that same year in my wood shop class, a guy made a wooden "pleasure stick" and put it in a chick's purse. The teacher found it and kicked that chick out of the class. Later that same day, a guy was using the table saw. He finished cutting a long piece of wood, and he left it beside the saw and took his hand off of it. The machine quickly shot the piece of wood through the window of a door. Pretty lucky that no one was back there at the time.

The one thing that will stick with me is there was a student at my high school that was known as a chronic mastvrbater. He would mastvrbate in the bathrooms between every class. In the 11th grade, he was caught pleasuring himself in the school bathroom by the principle. And then during my last year in high school, the gym teacher (an awesome, fat, black pothead) started screaming and yelling at one of his students to take off the 'loaner shorts' (he forgot to bring his shorts, so he borrowed a pair from the school). It turned out that the chronic mastvrbater used those 'loaner shorts' as a way to clean up his "mess" in the bathroom, and the gym teacher knew about it. Pretty gross, but funny.

Yeah, my school was pretty laid back. The worst thing I ever did was pee in a classroom garbage can (the bathrooms were locked). And there was a day when myself and 5+ buddies of mine played darts with X-acto knives during class. A very un co-ordinated jerk (think Steve Urkel with a bad attitude) threw an X-acto knife (which barely missed my friend's head) and it smashed into a flat screen computer monitor. Right before the teacher came back into the classroom, I threw an X-acto knife into the ceiling. Later that day, that unlikeable kid knocked the knife out of the ceiling with a yard stick, and it nearly hit someone.....

Man, I really miss high school..... some really fun times for me.

My high school for some reason had a big issue with drug over doses. A few years ago two students died from it, and then just last year a student almost died from it. I was in college at the time, but I still heard about it. And then there are the years that three students died in car crashes. One did like almost ten years ago, and then about three years ago, two more students did.

Edit- oh and two well known kids died from cancer... They both have scholarships and sports events named after them now.

I bet a lot of this happened in a lot of other schools, but our high school was small enough (even though it is a pretty decent size) to have all these tragedies affect the whole student body and faculty.

Five high school seniors I went to school with beat some kid up in his house, took him out to a field, then beat him to death and left him there. In junior high, I had a crush on one of the girls that participated in that.

Lot's of fights, everyone gathers around and watches two gorillas go at it. We had a gun-scare last year, and they brought in police armed with assault rifles.

And right now there are fake twitter accounts for the head principal, and just the entire school in general. They're pretty funny actually.

Lets see, there was a stabbing in the bathroom, lighting garbage cans on fire, someone crapped on a tennis racket and used it to fling [censored] all over the bathroom, false bomb threats, a couple fights but not too many the worst was when someone picked a fight with school cop and got maced, several people I knew over-dosed sadly. That's all I can think of anyway.

Reading this thread makes me feel incredibly fortunate. From primary to where I am now (high school) I can't think of more than 5 or so fights, and these were settled beteween whoever was involved, no police or anything, and no knife attacks or anything. In high school there are loads of who smoke (all kinds of stuff) and drink but that's not reeeeally bad

There was a 5th grader a couple years back, I didn't really know him, who died from cancer and that was a really sad day but still nothing violent or related to the school itself.

I went to high school in a pretty small town, so I don't really have any truly outlandish stories like some of them on here, but I've still got a couple good ones.

When I was in the seventh grade, some idiot in an eighth grade class upstairs threw a desk out the window. Not a piece of a desk, but the *entire* desk out a third-story window. It was in the class of a certain teacher who not many of the kids liked because of his short temper (ironically, I actually got along extremely well with that teacher). IIRC, he got a two week suspension for it.

In my Sophomore year, someone got expelled for trying to sell Vicodin in school.

In my Junior year, someone got expelled for running from the police on campus. The kid was in a fight and the police were called. The really bad part is what I heard afterwards from people who actually witnessed the whole thing. If he hadn't run from the police, he probably would have gotten an in-school suspension at most. He was actually defending himself from the other guy and just panicked when he saw the police car pull up. The other guy got a week suspension I think.

Other than that, there were the usual couple of false bomb and violence threats that turned out to be someone just trying to get school called off.

My schools were great compared to most of yours, not much bad ever happened around me. A guy in my class killed himself by jumping in front of a train, and another one almost accidentally killed himself by alcohol poisoning during a break, but those aren't so bad.

The worst I guess was when one girl tried to get a guy to like her who she was attracted to, by sending him a webcam video of her flashing her boobs and touching herself. Not very smart, especially because the guy was an [censored] who sent the video to all his friends, who sent it to all their friends, etcetera. You can imagine what that did to her reputation, the poor girl had to leave that school not long after that.

Nothing has really happened at my school. There are a bunch of guys that steal stuff like iPods and phones. The same guys smoke weed every lunchtime.

I go to the school that which in Vancouver is #1. All the rich mainland Chinese people come to Vancouver and send their children to my school, although it is public.

When you have a bunch of mainland Chinese people as the parents of the students, then nothing tends to happen involving those students. They like to stick to their cigarettes and books.

The fact that they make up 90% of a 500 student school helps keep things safe. In most of my classes I am the only white guy, if not the only non Chinese.

Something like that happened in my school. Some little guy was on webcam with this girl and she said she would flash her boobs if he showed her his [censored]. He showed her his [censored] and she print screened it and it got spread around the school. It wasn't exactly a large [censored], and she never flashed her boobs (obviously). Everyone has forgot about it because the victim is popular.

Hahaha, totally forgot something like that happened at my school. A girl took a picture of herself "using" a curling iron and sent it to her friend. That friend then sent it to everyone. Practically the entire school, including teachers, saw it.

She didn't leave school though. Or at least she finished the school year. That was during my senior year, don't know if she went back or not.

A year or two before I enrolled at high school there was a teacher who used the PC in his classroom as his own personal porm stash and kept his students locked out until he was "finished."

In my JROTC class one of the teachers was having six with a one of the cadets and one other cadet had a mental breakdown when he failed the graduation project and had to repeat his senior year.

Well just in the past year we had a guy who just graduated and was Valedictorian die at West Point during a training exercise. He was an awesome guy it was all over the news.
http://dailymail.com/ap/ApTopStories/201107300379
His funeral was held at our school in the gym where just not even 2 months before he was giving his speech about moving through life despite hardships and stuff. It was an amazing speech. I think it was a poor decision to have it at the school I mean I cant even go into the gym anymore cause I cant get the image of the open casket outta my head.

Then just right before thanksgiving we had another graduate kill himself.

We have a daycare in our school for the students who have children and its only for the students who have kids and its alot of them.

We have lots of bomb threats.

Speaking of which when bomb threats happen we get them we all stand outside the the baseball field and the [censored] who makes the threats always does it when its raining and stuff.

There are lots of drugs and snuff used in school just recently a kid got arrested in school for selling drugs.

A kid passed out after being stabbed with an X-Acto knife, although it wasn't intentional. During Freshmen year, my bus was shot at with a BB gun. In the middle of January of that same year, the fire alarms were set off by a substitute teacher lighting gummy bears on fire in the Chemistry classrooms. Other than that, nothing but the typical high school stuff.

My buddy and I watched cheech and chong in french class one day without our teacher figuring it out.

That's the way it should be, and used to be. You get annoyed at someone, the two of you rpunch each other a few times and then go our and play kickball.

Now days there is no outlet and that [censored] sits and festers for years, then suddenly someone is blowing and shooting [censored] up.

Something like that happened at my school too. Except in was a soda can in her [censored] it was a very strange picture.

I was stabbed in the wrist with a pencil, this was when I was about 10 years old. It wasn't particularly deep though, so it probably doesn't qualify as the worst thing that happened.

Good lord, soda cans are enormous, how would you even...

This was my thought when I heard about the picture but it was in there lol

There was a lot of wacky stuff that happened at my High School. Like a group of people in my senior class got in serious trouble for bringing an ice chest full of cold ones to a senior party.

Most recently in college, It was in the middle of a lecture when a police officer walked in with a search warrant for a student in the class. He wasn't there, but it was interesting.

There was one bomb scare, one threat to shoot and my friend slipping and landing face first in poop.

Don't get me wrong, I don't go to a ghetto school either. It's a quiet, old people neighborhood. The shooting threat was this big fiasco on the news about some chick wanting to exercise her "right to bear arms" and the bomb scare, I don't know what that was about. :3 Plus, my friend is an idiot.
