Gunman in my school

[SodaDew]

Back in 05' I was in 5th grade and we went into lock down because someone outside was wearing a trench coat...turns out to have been my cousin waiting for me And last year my high school had a tornado come extremely close to the school and everyone was in the duck & cover position in the halls crying. xD

thankfully i live in Australia, a place that tries to keep crazy people and guns separated

No you just give them your evil ass native creatures. You ever been mugged with a freakin snake? Worst holiday ever.

OT: We had the KKK march on my school once. Something about gay students and satan. Faculty ended up suspending the entire (american)football team, they beat the shit out of some klan members.

Now that's what i call poetic justice (oh man if you were in my English class today)

Some Black kid got caught here at Alpharetta High School with a little less than a kilo of marijuana.

EVERYONE here smokes weed, and they caught the master distributor.

Most exciting (and additionally annoying for me) was reports that one of the students had a gun in their locker. so the cops got brought in to search the whole building and all the lockers. The problem for me arose because I'm a martial arts instructor and I specialize in weapons and since I often went to go teach class immediately after school I often stored my gear in my locker (I had permission from the principal). So of course the cops are searching the lockers, find a handful of pocket knives, some sandwiches so old they might possibly count as biological weapons... then they get to mine and find two short staves, two katanas, a wakazashi, a tanto, pair of sai, pair of kama, throwing spikes, caltrops, a meteor hammer, some shuriken and a set of nunchucks... ended up getting arrested and it took forever to finally convince them that I was in fact allowed to have them (especially since the principal was on vacation that week and shuriken and nunchucks are illegal in my country unless you have a REALLY REALLY REALLY fucking good reason for owning them... which I did)

Hmm, one time an electrical company was doing maintenance on the power lines about 1/2 km from my school and some idiot drove the boom into live, exposed cables, frying himself.

Power went out at the school, left early.

Back in high school, one of the music department heads burnt some pop-tarts in his office (he wasn't supposed to have a toaster in there to begin with). This caused a two-hour evacuation while the fire department swept the entire building.

In their search, they discovered what a mess the band room was (loose paper, pieces of instruments, open bottles of trombone slide oil, assorted articles of clothing, all just lying around). The fire marshal declared it a fire hazard. So all of the bands spent their classes cleaning up the place to get it re-inspected before we could continue playing.

...All because the head of the music department burnt a pop-tart. We never let him live down.

Trombonists eh? eh? eh? AMIRITE?

I'm right.

The worst thing that happened at my school was a thief among our number. I'm a little jealous of all you guys.

Nothing exciting. In middle school, we got a day off because the railroad tracks behind the school were being used by a train carrying toxic nuclear waste. Yay day off!

Well lets see. My elementary school had a lady walk in and start one of the indoor plants on fire. She also went around people's houses and put poisoned food on their doorsteps in hopes kids will find them and eat them. That was about i think 4 years before i got there so i don't think that counts.

And at my High School, we have about 10 or so bomb threats a year. We have had 2 bank robberies as well this year about maybe 5 blocks or so away from my school. And that's as exciting as it gets for me.

Someone in my middle school set a locker on fire. And if I remember right, the reason was he just wanted to leave school early.

something similar was told to me from my friend about her school except he lit his locker on fire to get out of an exam and it spread to six lockers and one of the lockers had a big bag of weed which caught fire they both got expelled from what I heard
now my school?...absolutely nothing happened while I was there

sophomore year of college the school was placed on lockdown for a few hours after somebody saw a guy with a rifle on campus. Turned out to be a cadet with a plastic drill rifle. If he'd been in uniform nobody would have noticed, because the cadets have various kinds of weaponry available (real and otherwise) for divers purposes.

 

[TonyVonTonyus]

I wish, closest we had was a guy dressed as a lumberjack flashing people next to the school...the school treated it like he was a terrorist but when they announced it over the intercom it almost made me fall off my chair laughing.

Nothing big, excluding 2 occasions, both of which happend in elementary school.

The first on which was when a wolf had torn apart a deer on the school grounds, when we went out for recess there was bones and blood all over the fields, teachers had a tough time keeping us from looking around.

The secound and more serious event occured in 2ndish grade. Two snipers had been driving around in a van picking off random civilians. (one sniper wanted to kill his wife, but if she was the first killed the police would have a good lead, as such he decided to kill her after a series of other civilians) Because of this we had to stay inside all day, keep blinds closed, and stay on edge just in case.

No but we're... not allowed, but there are looks the other way if you want to bring one to school. there are rules of course. You have to have a license, you have to have permission from parental figures if you're under their jurisdiction, you have to have a good enough reason (usually it involves coming in late/leaving early to go hunting, of which Ive done before). And you cant actually bring it into the building. it has to stay in your car, and you cant bring it with you on the bus, so you have to be able to drive to school. if you walk to school then you have to leave it int he principals office after being escorted by an armed school officer who handles your weapon.

You also cant wear rings, necklaces, chains, or some earings in my school either (as we've had a fight break out before and someone cut another kids face up so badly with rings on his hands tha the kid lost an eye, was disfigured, and had to have some facial reconstruction to get him to the point he is today [which is somewhat presentable]).

...

Though we did have a kid bring a gun to school and aimed it at some girl who, in his mind, had wronged him nd was going to shoot her. He got as far as aiming at her face and shouting her name before the shool officer shot his shoulder and two students shot out his knees.

...

And we had a bomb threat once, which wasnt as fun as it sounds when you have to gather on the football field for an hour in the freezing cold, possibly without a coat if it was in your locker, only to be ushered in after the shcool decided and then undecided three times that they were going ot send us home early (though if you had a car and your locker was cleared or if your parents want to dive up and get you, you could go home early).

So what your saying is that if you wanted you could bring a gun into school?

I want to go there

Worst I had back in secondary school was a fire, a fire in the sprinkler room. I will repeat that. We had a fire in the sprinkler room of our school. The best part was that it was in February in Canada so it was -15 outside and we were not allowed to grab our jackets.

 

[Xskills]

Twice have I experienced crap like first time was in high school: a kid found a racist/anti-Semitic statement carved into a wall in a boy's bathroom, so next day the police screened every student who came to school the next day almost airport-checkpoint style. Second time was College and a student who texted the campus-police overreacting to a teacher who brought an inoperable muzzle-loader for his history class.

 

[Pat8u]

well we were flooded the schools best response to the flood was "we will take you to the gym that is right in front of the flood stopper" at least they got us out of the gym before water started coming in

 

[TheKramers]

My high school was placed on lockdown when some parent spotted an adult carrying a rifle in the building.

Turned out to be one of the teachers with an Airsoft weapon intended for a physics experiment which he did every year.

Hahaha people are so paranoid. Oh, what the media has done to us

The only thing I can think of that matches is that is that we used to get bomb threats every once in a while at our high school. Most of the time we weren't outside that long, but one time we were forced outside almost all day. Thankfully, none of the bomb threats ever turned out to be credible.

same here, but I was in middle school when we had a double bomb threat - someone said there were two bombs hidden inside the school phones. It was about nine when we had to go out and about three hours before we could go back in - the worse part, besides it being a complete lie, was that it was a cold, rainy, and windy day, so it was pretty much freezing the whole time we were waiting.
But whenever the students had to go out for fire alarms or whatnot, it was always on days like that

Back in Middle School, my school was placed in lockdown because of a bank robbery down the street. We had all the lights shut off, we had paper covering the windows, and we had to wait at least an hour after school was supposed to end before we were allowed to leave.

Wasn't all bad though, I did get to see a movie after that.

A kid from a rival school tried to set my school on fire based on the outcome of a football game, he made the HORRIBLE mistake of doing it where me and my pals play magic and discuss video games, he fell victim to the fact that, due to our constant preparation for the zombie apocalypse, we were all martial arts practitioners, we had a combination of kendo (useless in that situation) karate, kung fu, and hapkido, it didn't end well for him.
