Worst thing that happened at my school was that someone lit of some fireworks in the main hall. This was in grade 9 or something.

It might not have been an attempted suicide. Maybe he's Buddhist and it was a failed protest attempt.

I... have no respect for you. And never will.

yeah, thats pretty disgusting, and with some of the jokes i make, thats saying a lot. kids like that are usually a product of their environment, whether its abusive parents, heartless teachers, or kids too young and stupid to realize or care about the pain and isolation theyre instilling in that person, which can probably also be traced to some adult who didnt bother to foster respect instead of entitlement into their perfect little douchebag. and who ends up dead? the children too young and stupid (like all of us have been at one point) to understand what theyre doing to the person they bully, the kids who are too inexperienced to know that this part of theyre lives is a small part of what could otherwise be a happy and meaningful life, and the bystanders who may have had nothing to do with the situation entirely.

im all about laughing at a situation to deprive it of its power over us, but goddamn, dude. use a bit of discretion.

It sounds like our story is true. Then it might be the original story or its one of the archetypes, like the one were the psychology teacher commit suicide. in regardss to the. . . . mature fish, well if ou think like that its how you think ^^, I just meant rotten (kidding with a abit mate).

Otherwise I dont think these stories of American schools exists becuase There are a big spectrum of schools. If that were so it should be xamples from India and china and other places with lots of people. I in my humble opinion think it is some problematic or weird parts/aspects of American culture/life.

This kid brought a large kitchen knife on the bus when I was in 7th grade because I was sitting in the back of the bus and he wanted to, so he threatened to kill me. There's been multiple bomb threats, a teacher was arrested for having sex or emailing nude pics to a student or something. Today, my sister, who is in 7th grade, had 2 friends fake suicides. Out side of school we've had a few murder suicides/suicides and I live in a small town about 30 miles outside of Boston.

There was a bomb threat at my school recently, and a bunch of drug busts, but my school is pretty mild when it comes to crazy stuff going on.
The bomb threat was over pretty quick though - the kid who made the threat called the school FROM HIS HOME PHONE.

FLAME ON!

Now I'm going to a deeper layer of hell then you friend .

On a side note, how the hell did this happen? Did the cops find out how the kid caught on fire?

So am I, I just laughed at that for a good five minutes.

My primary school sports teacher was Keli Lane. You won't have heard of her, but it's kind of a big deal in Australia. She was this waterpolo star who killed her two day old baby daughter Tegan (allegedly). Yes, she was teaching me at my school after the murder took place, but the murder allegations and public of the missing baby occurred after I was at a different school.

The trial is still going on now, I think: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/7943323/truth-about-baby-too-dreadful-to-admit

Holy shit, she was your sports teacher? Fuck, that must be pretty creepy. Just hearing about it on the news is weird enough.

OT: Wow, I'm sorry to hear that he died. That is one messed-up situation. I hope everyone at your school can get through this all right.
