Most people carry around a school memory that has stuck with them forever. For some, those are happy moments, like meeting their lifelong friend or graduating first in their class. For others, they are equally as memorable, but not in a good way. 

Netizens in this online thread were recently sharing “the incident” that happened at their school, and boy, do these stories get scandalous. From teacher-and-student flings to calls about bomb threats, they remain etched in people’s brains, living there rent-free.

To find the freshest school gossip that brings us back to the good old days, all you have to do is scroll down!

While you're at it, don't forget to check out a conversation with one of the top memory experts in the world and a two-time national memory champion, Ron White, who kindly agreed to tell us more about how negative incidents tend to linger in our minds longer.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone This happened after I graduated, but there were rumors about it when I was still there. I thought it was just kids being a******s.Three male teachers in one year got caught doing that thing you're not supposed to do with your underage students.

    One of them used the following defense: We just kissed and stuff, I waited until she was 18 to have sex with her, so I didn't break the law. The other one used *his school- issued laptop* to contact his victim and beg her not to tell the truth, because it would ruin his livelihood and his kids' lives.

    During the aftermath, another teacher came into his classroom and said something to the effect of "If you're wondering why I was absent yesterday, I was being questioned by a few guys in suits." One of the kids asked why, and the teacher pointed right at the victim and said "because of her." Yeah, he pointed her out in front of everyone (supposedly no one knew which girls were involved) and got charged with witness intimidation. His lawyer told the news "hurting someone's feelings isn't a crime."

    It used to be considered the "good" school district.

    And people still wonder why people who are SAed don't come forward. They do, and they aren't believed, they're blamed, or they're humiliated on top of the trauma they've already endured.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone It was discovered that my high school principal was having an inappropriate sexual relationship with one of the students. He was married and his son was also a student at the school which made matters way worse. The principal was arrested and released on bail, but he ended up committing suicide. It was traumatic for the students because we’d always known him as a kind man and respected principal. I felt horrible for his son, who moved away shortly thereafter to escape this nightmare. I wish it was more of a lighthearted incident.

    White tells us that negative events have the tendency to be remembered more than positive ones because of the emotion involved. "For example, if you are in a car accident, 10 years later you will be able to give all the details of the accident, from the time of day to the location, without hesitation," he says.

    "But you couldn't tell me where you drove last week. Last week had no emotion or action. The car accident does. Another example of emotion impacting what we recall is that humans can get 100 positive comments about something they did, but the brain will focus on the negative because it hurts, it wounds us, and because the negative hurts us more than the positive uplifts us, we will remember it more."

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone 13 year old classmate was secretly pregnant & had a baby in 8th grade. We all found out because the principal & vice principal came into our classroom & announced it to the entire class. They didn’t use her name, but it was pretty easy to put 2 & 2 together.

    Years later I ran into the girl & we talked briefly about what had happened. She told me her mom had just about sued the daylights out of the school admin for what they had done. Never found out what stopped her from suing.

    When I was in "école élémentaire" (6 yo to ~10yo in France) one of the oldest girl got pregnant (she gave birth just before her 12th birthday). It was made very public because the headmaster was bashed by the mother for warning social services and the Police even though it "wasn't his business" and "health is supposed to be secret" or something like that. She made her scene at the end of the day when all the kids are given back to their parents, so a lot of public, maybe trying to get sympathy from other parents. IDK. It didn't work very well and parents were even mad at her for having to explain the situation to their own children. Soon after that we discovered that the reason mommy was pissed is that she knew her new husband was the father and didn't want the Police to get him in jail (priorities...). He was arrested and the girl taken away from that wonderful mother.

    A friend and I walked into the bathroom at school. She went into one stall and I went into the one beside. She screamed, "There's a baby in the commode!" We went immediately to the counselor to tell her. We waited in the hallway on a bench as the counselor went into the bathroom to check if that's really what my friend saw. She came back out crying. Later we watched the police carry out a small closed box with the deceased baby in it. That was in 1976. I'm 65yo now and still so thankful that I was too scared to look in that toilet. The baby was delivered by a girl in our class who came from a very poor, uneducated family. The baby's father was the girls own father.

    I was at school in the 60's. A 13 year old in my class was 'going out' with a 13 year old boy. All through the summer she got fatter and fatter, and then left just before the summer exams. It was only later that we actually *realised*. Sweet summer children.

    I knew someone that had a baby in middle school to. And it was also the 8th grade. It was kind of sad really cause she was so young. And she didn't have anyone. She was already living with different people and everything. And she was so young.

    Bear with me, this is a long story. So I went to a charter school that would add on a grade of high school with every school years. When it opened I was in 6th grade. So when I was in 8th grade, a rumor was spread like a so quickly. The rumor was that a 7th grader did the deed with a 10th grader. It turned out to be true. Their punishment was only a few days of out of school suspension. I for sure thought that they were expelled. Nevertheless, their lives were ruined for that.

    Probably couldn't afford a lawyer. Even if it is an open and shut case, lawyers still going to require a retainer. Plus at 13, very young, likely an investigation by CPS may have occurred.

    Same thing happened in my school back in the early 90s. She had to quit school because of medical complications (because she was so young and "underdeveloped" surgeons had to break her very narrow pelvis to allow the pregnancy to continue, so strict bed rest.) The school provided a tutor to allow her to continue her education and she returned after a couple years. Her kid started kindergarten the same year she graduated.

Holiday season of 2003 Someone hacked into the intercom and played p*rn parodies version of Christmas tunes.

It turned out, it was rather easy to due into the intercom system because of the wiring system was a standard phonelines. Me and a couple of mates found who was the ring leader, but we didn't snitch because we thought it was one of the funniest things we had to handle.

    White tells us that there are no particular negative events that get stuck in our memories longer than others. "Any event that gets your emotion will be encoded more. Negative events capture our attention because they shock us. Attention is the first step in memory. The last step of memory is review, and if something negative happens to us or is said to us, we will tell that story over and over. This review locks it into our memory!! Be careful what you give your attention to!"

Happened while I was at lunch one day. A crowd of screaming students came running into the cafeteria all of a sudden and one of my friends that had been down the hall from it, sat there panicking and hyper ventilating and told me what had just happened. We got released early that day and it was all over the news the next day. His name was Brian Head btw. Poor kid. Back then school shootings weren't really a common news occurrence.

    That said, remembering unfortunate incidents can be beneficial to humans. For example, "Our ancestors saw one of their group eaten by a lion. They remember how they escaped or what to avoid. Put your hand on a hot stove. You may do it once, but your memory will prevent you from doing it twice," White explains.

    "Remembering negative experiences can save you. You fall victim to a con, and it robs your bank account, and your memory remembers it. The next time you don't fall victim. Our memories will remember negative experiences as a form of protection!"

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone Every year the graduating class did some kind of prank. At the end of the school year. One year they build a maze you had to walk through to he into the school and all dressed up funny and did jump scares. Stuff like that. Then one year one class deciced it would be funny to spray kids with water pistols. Not that funny to sit in class soaked but okay. Year after that they apparently thought we can do better and not only used water pistols but again build a big entryway with plastic walls. And they, out of sight of the teachers. Dumped flour on all the already wet students. Some also brought eggs and the whole thing turned into a massive fight. Other schools got wind and came down to fight. Police had to break it up. That class ruined last day of school for many years to come. Of all the schools, no one expected the wizzkids school to be the one to ruin it lol.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone There was a history/theater teacher who was very well liked. Girl wasn't happy that he gave her a bad grade or a detention or something (this was years ago so my memory is foggy), so she falsely accused him of r*pe. He lost his job, his wife left him, totally ruined his life. This girl's brother was valedictorian a couple years prior, so everyone believed her. This went on for about a year or so before the girl graduated, admitted it was a false accusation, then moved across the country and deleted all her social media accounts. Nobody knows what happened to the teacher, but it's widely believed that he may have k*lled himself.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone Riot.

    There was a vacant lot across the street from my high school that was used as an unofficial parking lot by the students. It being the 70s, many students would toke up before class. That evolved into people dealing.

    One morning, the police descended on the place in force - surrounded the field, helicopter, etc. Some of the students fought back throwing rocks and bottles. Tear gas was deployed.

    End result was one guy (who I don't think was a student) being charged with riot, many people popped for possession, and a destroyed police car.

    The incident that shook our school to its core happened during our annual talent show. As the curtains drew back for the first act, there was a sudden power outage, plunging the auditorium into darkness. Amidst the confusion, someone yelled "fire!" and pandemonium ensued. Students scrambled for the exits, tripping over each other in their frantic attempt to escape. It turned out to be a false alarm, but the chaos left a lasting impact on everyone. The incident prompted a thorough review of our emergency protocols and sparked discussions about safety measures. It taught us the importance of staying calm in emergencies and the need for better preparedness.

Several women came forward in 2020 to the local paper after looking him up online and seeing that he'd been fired from a Catholic school near Atlanta for sending inappropriate messages to students. He had a LinkedIn profile listing him as the executive director of an organization for adolescent mental health.

    He left my school very abruptly over the summer in 2000, and the rumor was he'd gotten a girl in my class pregnant. We were freshmen. I had health class with him and remember he was obsessed with Freud.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone In middle school this girl who was a grade above me started acting kinda obsessive about this one teacher. This continued into high school, as this specific teacher taught at both schools depending on the day. This teacher also showed a lot of favoritism, and she was one of those students that he gave special treatment. The entire school picked up on this and started making jokes that they were secretly dating. After she graduated and he retired, a couple people who were close with her started telling people that they actually had been secretly dating, and she had even stayed at his house a couple times when his wife was out of town. The teacher moved away and the girl kinda vanished, so nobody could ever ask her personally if it was true, but I’d be shocked to find out if it wasn’t.

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone University, not high school.

    My History class did an annual three-day field trip to London for a first-year module. An urban legend was spread around about a student who got so drunk on absinthe that he wrote drunken messages in his own s**t all over the bathroom walls and mirror. The smell of his excrement and the commotion woke up the entire hostel at 4AM and nearly got our entire university barred.

    Fast-forward a few years, I start working in a call centre and find out one of the supervisors not only went to my university but also studied History five years prior, went on the same field trip and stayed in the same hostel as I did.

    He was in the same dorm as the drunken student and remembered his lecturer waking him up in the early hours...

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone Freshmen and sophmore years we had race riots. Multiple trashcans were on fire, walking around campus felt like we had an ongoing MMA clinic. All the kids that were taking part were like 30 years old and definitely didnt even go to the school. Junior year a random d**g dealer ( who also didn't attend the school ) got thrown off the second story balcony onto a lawn area by a dude who was essentially the school candy dealer but had a soft spot for the spanish teacher that kicked the druggy kid out.

    My high school used to have a mathematics teacher who was excellent at explaining, but had significant mental health issues. For a while, he was under control with his medications, but then, he stopped taking them. During a staff meeting, the principal observed the teacher acting in an unusual manner, so she put him on administrative leave, to be replaced by a substitute. A month and a half later, the teacher wanted to return to school, so attended another meeting with the principal. This time, the teacher threatened to k*ll the principal (*in response to her taking away his job*). After the meeting ended, the teacher tried to return to his old classroom, and students heard him using profanity, taking items off the wall, and acting irrationally. The principal put the entire school under a lockdown until the police arrived. The police then escorted the teacher off the school campus, and put him in jail. Once the teacher was safely away from the campus, the lockdown ended. At the time, I was in a science class (*just one floor below the incident!*), so had not heard about any of this until the lockdown started. That was a scary day.

    I don't understand what the problem is here. Aren't consenting adults allowed to date?

    There were multiple that I can remember. - 3 weeks into my sophomore year of high school, someone had posted a shooting threat online, saying that they were tired of being bullied and that at the end of the day, they would start shooting before killing themselves. Everyone was scared sh**less and most people went home early. But later on, we found out that the threat was actually fake, so we could return the next day. The student was caught and was facing a felony. Don't know what happened to them since. - A senior basketball player was shot dead after school a couple of months after the shooting threat. Many people in the community paid tribute to him, and suspects were arrested. - In my junior year, someone called in a bombing threat. Students had to be evacuated out of the building and into the football field before being sent home. That turned out to be fake as well. What pisses me off is that our whole day got wasted, and some of us had forgotten our stuff. And the worst part is that it happened again a few days later.

    I feel like bomb threats were a thing when I was in HS. I remember having to evacuate a couple times every year, but they were always just “threats”.

    Someone shot a staple with a rubber band and it ended up hitting another kid in the eye.  Another time in High school a girl sent another guy a nude and he of course told his friends which got the word out and there was a whole big legal battle.

    There's no good ending to "kids, nude pix, legal battle". A forest of fingers pointing, blame game for all, those who scream loudest win

    30 People Share About One Scandal At Their School That Stunned Everyone There was my class's senior prank. Our school had two activity busses used for driving our athletic teams to their events. Some genius stole them, parked them in the school courtyard next to each other, and then put sugar in the engine writing off the busses. In response our school cancelled all activities using the bus. You should've seen the band kids after the announcement... They were wailing in the courtyard like Nancy Kerrigan after her attack.
