heh. WEELL...
-There was a bomb threat last year, and there was another one a few years ago where a "mysterious package" was found in front of the school.
-Some little kid took off and we went on lockdown and couldn't leave the room we were in until he was found- which ended up being a couple hours (that sucked 'cause I reeeally had to pee). They found him at Farmland (a grocery store a few blocks from the school). Seriously... FAARMLAND. Of all places!
-A freshman is pregnant at the high school right now.
-I have an english teacher that stares down girls' shirts.
-Some kid in my grade pulled a knife at lunch.
-There have been at least 7 fights this year, during school. All of them were with girls. Most of them were at or on the way back from lunch.
-Some 7th grader whipped out a knife and threatened to kill his whole class.
-A ceiling tile fell on my head a few years ago.
-When I was in 5th grade, the boys' bathroom got locked as punishment because someone took a wiz all over the walls in it. People were saying that the guys had some kind of "target practice" thing going...?
-I accidentally flooded the girls' bathroom... the principal came down at lunch to yell at us and explain all the damage those types of things can cause, and that if anyone knows who it is then tell her. She said she'd keep the bathroom locked until she found out who did it. I never said anything, so she just kind of gave up.
-Like more than half my grade does weed and/or smokes.
-Last spring, the school ran out of lined paper, and didn't have any money to replace it.

Way more has happened, but this is all that I can remember off the top of my head.

yeah it was morochnik.. he violated a restraining order or something.

was that kid who took out a knife and threatened to kill the class the cause of the 'code white' a few weeks ago? I love how the school called it a code white.. doesnt that mean a danger in the COMMUNITY?

A month ago in homeroom the superintendent came on the intercom to yell at us because ceiling tiles were falling from the ceiling outside her office and she was mad because she thinks the students are doing it.. there is no way that students are doing it.. ceiling tiles fall all the time because they are OLD. I'm extremely surprised no one's sued yet.

that group makes me laugh so hard because it's all true!!

Last night at the senior show they did a skit about the school's failed attempt at a lecture hall.

There's a bird that lives in the ceiling of our homeroom. It came in from out side, and it now has a nest next to the furnace. Right before standardized testing on Thursday, the bird went #1 :lol: :lol: , and it got all over the room. It smelled AWFUL!!! :mrgreen:

Hmm, lets see....

My middle school was mentioned as a joke on Saturday Night Live (when I was still going there) because we got passes that restricted us to go 30 times to the bathroom per month, the times you went during gym and lunch didnt count, yet idiots still made a big deal out of it, and it gained national attention.

According to a story our history teacher told us, one of the teachers a few decades back was accidentally murdered during...ahem...gay sex (not joking).

Back in the middle school, one day we had a twister literally go down the road next to our school (we are in mercer county....new jersey...) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_T ... #September

Our highschool did also have an asbestos day once. We had a day off because the asbestos in the ceiling tiles was falling down.
