Former Students Share 35 Bizarre Things That Happened At Their Schools

ADVERTISEMENT

Spending several hours every day at the same drab building filled with annoying kids of all ages isn’t as easy as one thinks it to be – though the odds are that once you reach adulthood, you won't be able to stop thinking back on all the wild things those years brought you.

Every school has a famous story. Perhaps a class clown managed to outdo themselves with one of their infamous pranks, or maybe some staff members were caught having a fling – whatever it is, pull your chair closer because you’re about to read some grand stories.

“What was ‘the incident’ at your high school?” – this online user turned to one of Reddit’s most interactive communities and asked its members to share their iconic school stories that have the potential to live on from generation to generation. The thread garnered nearly 12K views as well as 8.6K comments and wild tales.

Former Students Share 35 Bizarre Things That Happened At Their Schools When I was a sophomore, it was known around campus that a specific set of lockers that was between the campus and football field was off-limits, because over summer break some kids blew the door off a locker with a dry ice bomb in a Propel bottle (shrapnel!).

Two years into my relationship with my (now) husband, he starts telling a very familiar story and I realized he was the fabled dry ice bomber my school had been talking about for the past 7 years.

Former Students Share 35 Bizarre Things That Happened At Their Schools one of the prissy girls got pregnant. Oddly, it changed her for the better. She seemingly grew up over night. A lot of the students were weird around her, I remember, but I admired her for being so strong. I'm not normally a fan of teen pregnancies- I grew up in an area with a lot of that and have seen all the issues it causes- but she handled things beautifully. I hope you're doing well, Tamara!

Former Students Share 35 Bizarre Things That Happened At Their Schools When I was a sophomore, a guy asked a girl to prom by getting on stage wearing a paintball vest with red paper rolled into tubes stuffed in it, to make it look like he had bombs strapped to his chest. He held a sign that said "______ I'm kind of the bomb, will you be my date to prom." She said yes, he was suspended and not allowed to go to prom, and she went with someone else lol

It made news, which was just amazing since this was a small town. He claimed the school was racist and that if he were white he wouldn't have gotten in trouble for it

Former Students Share 35 Bizarre Things That Happened At Their Schools This was about a year or two after I graduated, but the “cool” teacher got busted for having sexual relationships with two of his 16-year-old students. At least one of the girls was a player on the school softball team, which he coached. He was married with two small children at home, and his wife gave him the boot after that (as did the state board of education.) I don’t remember if he served any time in jail, but he did have to register as a sex offender and will never be allowed to teach again. (I think he’s a real estate agent now.)

My school also had a cult called the ppp (pencil political party). All the members would steal pencils, kept them in a box (I'm talking like 700+ pencils), and on the last day of school, the leader stood on the roof and threw pencils at his followers. One kid had to go to the hospital with an impaled eye. He's fine.

Let’s see… gun found during sophomore lunch on Tuesday, stabbing on Monday, drug bust in girl’s bathroom last week Wednesday, metal detectors and half a dumpster of confiscated vape pens the week before… and, of course, the best week! Week of October 10th, on Monday the bus I take had a sub driver, who only stopped at the last stop on the route (it’s a 5mile route), Wednesday I’m going to tell separately, and Friday a kid was tackled, and, WHILE RESTRAINED and being cuffed, TASED right behind me at lunch. Edit: whoops, I forgot about the kid arrested for bringing a gun to school the week after that. Edit #2: and I completely forgot, my phone got stolen the third day of school.

And Wednesday… probably the worst hour of my entire life. We had F*****G SHOOTING ON CAMPUS, nobody told us a F*****G THING for an HOUR. We had to sit in a barricaded classroom, behind the teacher’s desk, for a f*****g HOUR, only knowing that someone was shot and we needed to be quiet.

Okay. It is November. School started in August. So far this school year: - someone punched the VP - someone got hit by a baseball bat and had three teeth knocked out - teachers and students are sick because there is mold that admin won’t fix despite fixing it immediately when it was in their building. - 2nd story bathroom has floor caving in - Teacher defended the south’s use of slaves - teacher is teaching AP classes despite not having any AP training at all - there’s one kid who never wears shoes on Fridays - some kid was just carrying a snake he found on the ground - probably a million other things I just can’t be bothered to remember frankly

My senior year of high school (2004/5 in the US). Myspace was still pretty popular back then. The site was used to organize a massive food fight in the cafeteria in which the principal (whom no one liked) got beaned in the forehead with an apple core. Tables were flipped on their sides to create a barrier and chairs were used as shields and it became food fight war zone. It made the school paper and got Myspace blocked on all the school computers 🤣

Here are a few from my primary school When I was in Grade 4 there was this kid in Grade 6 with special needs. He only came to school a couple days a week and came for about a month in total. The school had to lock down multiple times because this kid got out of the classroom and was running wild around the school. He would get naked and run around the grounds, throw rocks at windows, and climb onto the roof and jump off. It was terrifying, but he was not around for long. On the last day of school before my little sister left, (not the end of the year, but we were starting at a new school) there was a kid swinging on his chair in her classroom. He fell back and hit his head on a book case, crakced it open, blood was everywhere, and he got a concussion. My sister fainted from the sight of blood and had to come home early.

Our science teacher, whom everyone loved and adored turned out to be the most vile of creatures. He was raping his ex wife, his then wife, molested his children, groomed a couple of students and was into b*********y too.

There was this 'cool' teacher. Eeeeveryone loved him, and I mean everyone. Students, teachers, custodians, everyones favorite. Then his wife died suddenly. It was really sad, he obviously seemed heartbroken. We had an assembly at school and everything, every class made special cards, all of the faculty went to the funeral. Then, a few months later, he was arrested. Apparently, he killed his wife in a fit of rage over her uncontrollable spending habits. They had a lot of debt, and when he came home one day, he found out she bought some artsy statuette. He bashed her head in with the thing and then threw her of the stairs to make it look like an accident

It all started with a Barbie head… that fateful day. A couple of kids found it in the lost and found, and made a cult with the head and the hand sign from Despicable Me… they tromped around the school in a hoard chanting, and jumped on the little kids playground. It broke. We had a VERY angry announcement (whole grade) from the vp. It was hilarious 🤣

In May 2003 (year before my grad), our student body president died in a car crash, driven by a drunk friend. The very next day, a girl in our class succumbed to cancer, only weeks after forementioned student body president organized a Balding-For-Dollars benefit for her. She also happened to be a teacher's daughter. In 2005, a year after I graduated, a younger friend of mine dropped dead in phys. ed. Most likely an undiagnosed heart disorder.

My high school had Senior Lunch, and allowed seniors to take a full hour for lunch off campus. Two weeks into the school year 4 kids from my Science class were drag racing back to school when the driver lost control of their vehicle and crashed into a telephone pole, shearing the car in half. Three died on impact, and the fourth didn’t return to school until about midway through second term. Senior lunch was banned for the rest of the year, and no one complained.

At my middle school two different kids started a fire. In seventh the stereotypical "quiet kid" started a fire. The poor kid got suspended, threatened to k!ll himself, and never ended up coming back. Eighth grade, we had to do some dumb water currents experiment for science. My lab partner pulls out a lighter, and straight up lights the textbook on fire and throws it in the water. Then he coughs and says "smokyyyy" and my teacher is all like "it shouldn't be. Did you hear it up too much? Maybe it's steam, Chris." And he pulls up the textbook and it's all ashy and burned. The teacher actually kept it a secret from the principal because he was a straight A student and promised it wouldn't happen again. In seventh grade this kid pulled the sprinklers. There was water everywhere. In eighth grade I brought a squirrel into the classroom and my classmate posted it on snap without my consent. In ninth grade at a football game, the coaches got in a fistfight. Police got involved.

vice principal basically ignored my report that a girl had been harassing my bf and had been threatening to fight me. Me (a freshman) and a senior teamed up and both ordered 50 of everything off of the pizza hut and dominoes menu. Dominoes refused to go through with my order, but the senior was successful. We weren't caught, but all senior boys were called in and interrogated.

Let’s see… gun found during sophomore lunch on Tuesday, stabbing on Monday, drug bust in girl’s bathroom last week Wednesday, metal detectors and half a dumpster of confiscated vape pens the week before… and, of course, the best week! Week of October 10th, on Monday the bus I take had a sub driver, who only stopped at the last stop on the route (it’s a 5mile route), Wednesday I’m going to tell separately, and Friday a kid was tackled, and, WHILE RESTRAINED and being cuffed, TASED right behind me at lunch. Edit: whoops, I forgot about the kid arrested for bringing a gun to school the week after that. Edit #2: and I completely forgot, my phone got stolen the third day of school. Shoutout to [censored, sorry safety first!] High School! We love ya! Can’t wait to get my last year over with!

And Wednesday… probably the worst hour of my entire life. We had F*****G SHOOTING ON CAMPUS, nobody told us a F*****G THING for an HOUR. We had to sit in a barricaded classroom, behind the teacher’s desk, for a f*****g HOUR, only knowing that someone was shot and we needed to be quiet. I thought I was going to F*****G DIE for an ENTIRE HOUR.

Okay. It is November. School started in August. So far this school year: - someone punched the VP - someone got hit by a baseball bat and had three teeth knocked out - teachers and students are sick because there is mold that admin won’t fix despite fixing it immediately when it was in their building. - 2nd story bathroom has floor caving in - Teacher defended the south’s use of slaves - teacher is teaching AP classes despite not having any AP training at all - there’s one kid who never wears shoes on Fridays - some kid was just carrying a snake he found on the ground - probably a million other things I just can’t be bothered to remember frankly

The year I learned about forensic footwear. High school (1989), a bunch a senior students decided to vandalize a local grade school. Got caught when police matched the kids sneakers to prints left behind form them standing on desks. Was no gossip about the damage to the school or their punishment.

Two actually. We lost our Indian mascot and the squaw moniker for the ladies sports and a beloved principal was forced out at the behest of a local rich family who accused him of embezzlement of some sort

Both before I moved to my school: one of my friends got hit by a car driven by the former PE coach and a student recorded himself in a shooting range with a gun threatening to shoot up the school. Surprisingly the student was only suspended. Lastly is something that happened last week: the kid no one at my school likes punched the new kid in the face for the heck of it. All this in rural North Dakota

My senior year of high school (2004/5 in the US). Myspace was still pretty popular back then. The site was used to organize a massive food fight in the cafeteria in which the principal (whom no one liked) got beaned in the forehead with an apple core. Tables were flipped on their sides to create a barrier and chairs were used as shields and it became food fight war zone. It made the school paper and got Myspace blocked on all the school computers 🤣

Here are a few from my primary school When I was in Grade 4 there was this kid in Grade 6 with special needs. He only came to school a couple days a week and came for about a month in total. The school had to lock down multiple times because this kid got out of the classroom and was running wild around the school. He would get naked and run around the grounds, throw rocks at windows, and climb onto the roof and jump off. It was terrifying, but he was not around for long. On the last day of school before my little sister left, (not the end of the year, but we were starting at a new school) there was a kid swinging on his chair in her classroom. He fell back and hit his head on a book case, crakced it open, blood was everywhere, and he got a concussion. My sister fainted from the sight of blood and had to come home early.

Our science teacher, whom everyone loved and adored turned out to be the most vile of creatures. He was raping his ex wife, his then wife, molested his children, groomed a couple of students and was into b*********y too. The knowledge became public when he turned himself in to the police for his crimes. He was moved to the other end of the country to serve jail time.

Someone Took a picture of a teacher bending down, someone else punched a window (and it broke), people would vape in the bathrooms , someone else laughed at the fact someone’s grad dad died, also I’m pretty sure this one guy was a neo nazi (he carried around Mine Kampf, and apparently brought a Nazi uniform too….)

There was this 'cool' teacher. Eeeeveryone loved him, and I mean everyone. Students, teachers, custodians, everyones favorite. Then his wife died suddenly. It was really sad, he obviously seemed heartbroken. We had an assembly at school and everything, every class made special cards, all of the faculty went to the funeral. Then, a few months later, he was arrested. Apparently, he killed his wife in a fit of rage over her uncontrollable spending habits. They had a lot of debt, and when he came home one day, he found out she bought some artsy statuette. He bashed her head in with the thing and then threw her of the stairs to make it look like an accident

It all started with a Barbie head… that fateful day. A couple of kids found it in the lost and found, and made a cult with the head and the hand sign from Despicable Me… they tromped around the school in a hoard chanting, and jumped on the little kids playground. It broke. We had a VERY angry announcement (whole grade) from the vp. It was hilarious 🤣

In May 2003 (year before my grad), our student body president died in a car crash, driven by a drunk friend. The very next day, a girl in our class succumbed to cancer, only weeks after forementioned student body president organized a Balding-For-Dollars benefit for her. She also happened to be a teacher's daughter. In 2005, a year after I graduated, a younger friend of mine dropped dead in phys. ed. Most likely an undiagnosed heart disorder.

Someone also put a pipe bomb into the mens restroom. Turned out to be modeling clay and silver painted PVC. Derailed the whole school day. Students kept calling in fake threats for the rest of the week, so classes would be canceled again.

My high school had Senior Lunch, and allowed seniors to take a full hour for lunch off campus. Two weeks into the school year 4 kids from my Science class were drag racing back to school when the driver lost control of their vehicle and crashed into a telephone pole, shearing the car in half. Three died on impact, and the fourth didn’t return to school until about midway through second term. Senior lunch was banned for the rest of the year, and no one complained.

At my middle school two different kids started a fire. In seventh the stereotypical "quiet kid" started a fire. The poor kid got suspended, threatened to k!ll himself, and never ended up coming back. Eighth grade, we had to do some dumb water currents experiment for science. My lab partner pulls out a lighter, and straight up lights the textbook on fire and throws it in the water. Then he coughs and says "smokyyyy" and my teacher is all like "it shouldn't be. Did you hear it up too much? Maybe it's steam, Chris." And he pulls up the textbook and it's all ashy and burned. The teacher actually kept it a secret from the principal because he was a straight A student and promised it wouldn't happen again. In seventh grade this kid pulled the sprinklers. There was water everywhere. In eighth grade I brought a squirrel into the classroom and my classmate posted it on snap without my consent. In ninth grade at a football game, the coaches got in a fistfight. Police got involved.

In fifth grade one of my classmates was walking to school and got hit by a truck. My dad (who taught 5th grade at my school) was looking on local news sites and saw the headline that a 10 year old was hit by a car and killed near our elementary school. He then told his coworkers (our teachers) this at lunch and my teacher (the sweetest, kindest, most amazing woman) was almost crying the whole day. Our class knew something was up all day but didn't know what happened until the next day when they brought in a bunch of counselors and told us
