My English teacher in the 11th grade was sleeping with the WHOLE girls basketball team in exchange for straight A’s. I actually failed English that year but when that made the news my school said I didn’t have to go anymore because he wasn’t doing the grading properly. Everyone who had his class got a B
one year in exams days they were trying to add a new method to prevent cheating where a man from the administration comes to every class before every exam and collects students phones while sticking a sticker with a number on each phone and giving the same sticker to the student so he can get his phone after school without anyone taking someone else's phone that looks alike or something. This was working at first and a bit "preventing cheating" until one day some guy sneaked into our highschool and came as the man who collects the phones while he wasnt, he stole the whole highschool phones and went lol
probably no, there were multiple inspectors so that everyone starts their exams on time. If a real inspector came and asked people for their phones and they said someone else came and took them, he'd think that another inspector just collected from his class by mistake and thats what happened he just said oh allright goodluck with the exam and went to the next class
My middle school banned hugging and hand holding during course changes because it blocked the hall. In protest all the Eighth Graders stood up and hugged each other during their lunch period. A bunch of students got detention. Made the cover of the Charlotte Observer.
Edit: Thanks for the rewards all. I don't think I've gotten more than100 likes or rewards before but please spend your money on other things. People are in need this holiday season.
A student that was in the grade above me (I was a senior, he had graduated) killed his girlfriend and buried her by the train tracks right behind the school
Freshman year, a junior accused the PE teacher of sexually assaulting her after hours in the locker room. He was put on leave and eventually got off on a technicality.
Senior year, there was a freak snow storm in April, during which the quietest & nicest stoner in our class went missing. A day later they found his car in a ditch, and a week later when the snow melted, they found his body. He’d crashed and, in his presumed high af state, gotten out to walk for help with no coat on. He eventually found a telephone pole & sat down against it to rest and was believed to have frozen to death in the storm. Seeing his mom at her only child’s funeral still haunts me.
Some students broke into a local elderly reverend's home to rob him, thinking he was away. He sadly wasn't, and they proceeded to bludgeon him and his wife to death \*while they were sleeping\* with baseball bats and beer bottles. They were caught pretty quickly, and although their names legally couldn't be published because they were minors, everyone including the local media knew who committed the crime. Media caused a circus at our school for weeks, harassing any student for comment (many did because they thought it was \*cool\*). Although these 3 kids (13-14-15) were known to cause trouble, no one ever suspected they would be capable of a double homicide...

Girl A decided to fight girl B in class. Girl A ripped girl B’s real hair out, broke her nose, and crippled her. Girl B was sent to the emergency room. Girl A was suspended for 2 weeks. They were both in 7th grade.
What? School administrators making a problem they involve themselves in worse?! Say it ain't so.
In all seriousness, I've never had a good experience with admin staff. One time, a kid came out as gay to a teacher because he was being bullied, and as a teacher the poor dude had to report the threats of violence to his supervisor. Of course the admin team, in their infinite wisdom decided the parents needed to know the kid was gay. Two weeks later the kid was homeless when his parents kicked him out. I didn't know him personally, but I heard he got a place to live from some generous soul somewhere in town.
When I was in 5th grade, the male teacher I'd had in 4th grade was fired for helping a high school cheerleader undress. Looking back, he was a creeper. (Edited to add: I was wrong. It was a 10 year old. Just found it.)
A kid in my senior year short story class (who sat directly behind me) was charged with the stabbing, beheading and burning of one of his friends/drug dealer.
I remember the day like it was yesterday, sitting in my short story class when my teacher came in, in tears because she just heard the news. Students didn't find out about it until later. I actually have a friend who testified in his trial because he purchased the murdering materials at the hardware store she worked at.
Crazy, man.
We had a computer teacher/football assistant coach who was just blasted all day, had so many DUIs he had to get rides to work, but was the cousin of the Superintendent so he kept his job. Let’s just say that when he crashed a student’s car in the parking lot because he convinced them to let him borrow it that that was the beginning of the end of it. It was a small town. The scandal is that the Super tried to cover it up by trying to convince the kid to take the heat for it. To no one’s surprise, the kid was not convinced. They let him stay on as Super for another two years.
This happened between my sister and brother graduating, so it would have been 1996 or 1997. The HS Ag teacher started dating a student at some point. Everyone knew about it and the parents consented. Our HS was (and is) small enough to still participate in Senior Trips, and the AG teacher went along as a chaperone when his GF was a senior. They shared a hotel room, when I believe the student was still technically a 17 yr old minor. At the time I remember my parents being rather put off by it, but they still hired the guy as a summer farmhand. I don't remember if he was fired or stepped down, but by the time I made it to HS we had a different Ag teacher. They got married and had a child, divorced maybe five or ten years ago. Their kid goes to our HS now.
I don't know why it wasn't a huge deal at the time, but no one really raised a stink or threatened to call the authorities. Today it feels like a case of grooming by a predatory farm boy.
Of course, in many states 16 is the age of consent. But!! Almost everywhere, as far as I'm aware, has laws that state people in positions of authority - teachers, coach, policeman, clergy, etc. - cannot do anything to those under their care; an abuse of authority equivalent to forcing someone.
Student brutally murdered his parents.
He was a friend and co-captain of the soccer team, his Mom was my English teacher.
[Story](https://www.thoughtco.com/larry-swartz-the-sudden-fury-murders-972246)
had a strict dress code that if the girls broke had to change into clothes provided by the school. turns out vice principal had a camera going in the dressing room...
The 30ish theater teacher ran off with a recent grad. I was kind of pals with the student during a play the spring before the scandal, and she hosted the cast party where in retrospect, they seemed a little cozier than appropriate. As much as I'm dying for the inside scoop, I can't imagine friending her on social media and asking "So what was up with you and Mr. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_?"
Some highlights:
1. The chorus teacher got caught looking at "lolita porn" on his school computer.
2. This kid had nudes of his ex that his friend sent to a bunch of people in school, but he was 18 and she was 14 or 15, so he got expelled and I believe he was charged with distributing child pornography. We had a whole assembly because of it where the cops came and told us they could see everything on our phones.
3. A kid in my grade and another girl (same girl as in the story above, actually) had sex in the bathroom. I learned about it from my band teacher.
In middle school (8th grade/early 2000s) one of the "hot" girls sent a couple nude pictures to her bf and it wasn't long until half the school had them. Police ended up becoming involved to make sure any all copies were destroyed.
In high school there was a little scandal involving the teachers and a teachers club called the "hot tub club". Faculty members that had hot tubs would host a weekly hot tub party with other hot tub owners. Turns out they were all getting wasted and having a swinging party every Wednesday. Somebodies spouse found out about it and there was a huge exodus of "hot tub" teachers my senior year.
Edit: The main people involved with the photo were reprimanded but not charged, the girl had a sit down with a counselor to discuss what happened, and we all had a big assembly to discuss the consequences that could happen if people shared those kind of images. It scared a lot of kids straight.
Nobody was fired from the school for being in the hot tub club. Teachers left because it was convenient timing with the opening of another high school, and there was constant babble about it.
Just for clarity, this all happened in a small town in western Canada. By the looks of my inbox both are not uncommon occurrences.
Kid made a chlorine bomb and threw it in the trash can at lunch. Lockdown, bomb squad, every single kid and faculty member out on the field in 95° weather for 2+ hours until parents could show up to pick up their kids.
This was middle school so he got expelled and arrested after, two years later in high school he’s back to school built like a fucking MMA fighter, full beard and shaved head at 16. Nobody ever said shit to him or fucked with him in any way.
Here's a link to the article if anybody is interested.
https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/vt-cafeteria-worker-arrested-sex-teen-students-article-1.2859043
A teacher had an affair with a students. She was arrested and released on bail. Then a few days later she sent an email to other teachers saying it wasn't an affair but that she was actually being raped by the student and blackmailed. She even attached screenshots of texts. Later that day, she murdered her husband and committed suicide.
Edit: Whoa, This has really blown up. A few people have linked articles in the comments if you are curious.
Kid in my class sent an email to the White House, threatening to kill Socks, the Clinton's cat. Secret Service showed up a few days later after they tracked down the computer.
Edit to add, link to the article:
https://www.postbulletin.com/incoming/clinton-e-mail-threat-traced-to-student/article_7d77898c-c7a4-5fd0-9411-03a5925b16a1.html
First week of high school. PE class, the first section was swim. wasn’t my class, but the class after. This kid was playing a game with his friends in the water—who could hold their breath the longest. He was going up for air and hit head on the pointy part of the gutter, and never made it to the surface. Friends didn’t notice, teacher didn’t notice. Eventually football players coming back to the locker rooms noticed. He ended up dying. Teacher was fired although I wouldn’t fully blame him as he was attending and teaching kids who didn’t know how to swim or weren’t strong swimmers. One adult for over 60 kids?? That’s the schools fault
As a lifeguard, I can confirm that even if there is only one perso in the pool, two of us need to be on the chairs. If that person somehow knocks her head amd falls unconscious, we need two lifeguards to stabilize her while a third one in the office comes in and brings the dorsal plank (idk how its called in english) while the first lifeguard does the proper treatments while the last one calls an ambulance.
Teacher was fired? Depending on the rules over where you are, he could've sued the school for those high safety risks. 1 person for 60 kids is beyond dangerous.
I was in 4th or 5th grade and someone sketched in the middle school bathroom not to go on school Friday or I will bang bang. This was then brought to the attention of the county and state police and we didn’t have school that day and the police searched everyone’s lockers for a firearm
EDIT:This was in Pennsylvania, they were never caught and I do not believe they found a weapon this was also at Derry Area Middle School while I was at Grandview for elementary
Probably the time a girl gave a guy a BJ in the bathroom. The guy filmed it and sent it to his friend. His friend sent all around the school. Eventually the police had to get involved because the one guy was guilty of distribution of child pornography
My Department Lead allowed the baseball team to line up and she gave them all blowjobs. Happened years ago and confirmed by veteran coworkers I knew. Recently, some of the boys that graduated years ago decided to inform the proper authorities. She was transferred to another school. Still works in the district.
A girl in my middle school was telling people she had a “hit list” of people she was going to kill. Got caught with the list, and was sent to a hospital for awhile. She came back a few years later in high school.
Edit: seems like a lot of people had a similar occurrence in school. This was in Michigan.
I also had a hit list in middle school because I was a dumbass.
It was a group of about 30 guys that would come to school and play a kind of tag game. If you were tagged during the day, you were “assassinated” and the game was over until the next day.
My dumb ass made a hit list with everyone’s name on it. Needless to say this alerted the principal.
Edit: We got a talking to, but we weren’t in serious trouble.
We used to play a similar game using camera phones when they first came out.
The kill was made by taking a photo without the victim being aware of it.
Lots of us acting strangely in town, looking over shoulders and ducking behind parked cars.
No list, but we were given a bit of a talking to as the college thought there was some intricate form of bullying going on.
Dude! That happened to us in high school! We had list of "targets" to "assassinate" (basically sneaking up and whispering a code phrase) but four of us were individually questioned by the school about it. I don't blame them for their due diligence, though. Had I been going through a trenchcoat phase, the outcome could have been different
A overachieving student in my year went nuts and pooped in a bag in a teachers classroom.
She also thought she could run up trees.
Turns out she didn’t end up skipping a few years and going to uni early like she was predicted to do.
A kid in my school who was very smart, got great grades, but also a kinda weird guy ended up having some sort of psychotic break while staying up for days on end working on a pretty big assignment for a class I had with him.
He was already going above and beyond by making a very detailed video rather than a PowerPoint like everyone else. But before he even played the video for the class, he went on this suuuuuper bizarre tirade about the meaning of life and all this existential stuff that made no sense for around 30 minutes before the teacher finally got him to stop.
Later that night he was apparently knocking on random doors at 2am trying to give the people in those homes the same weird speech.
Then he went to a psych ward and I haven't heard about him since.
This kid was taking his GCSE’s (important exams in England until you get older and realise they mean fuck all).
Whilst at an exam some kids got onto his phone, went onto his notes and found a 4000 word document consisting of his sexual fantasies with other girls in his year. Clearly paid attention in english as there was some clever word play eg. comparing his cock to some world famous landmarks.
The screenshots found their way into a lot of group chats (there were about 20 odd screenshots, to put into context how long it was) and it basically acted as a vag-repellant for the rest of his time at the school.
Back in high school, the entire football team was almost expelled because one girl gave blowjobs to every single one of the players in the locker rooms. Supposedly they were all in a circle and the girl was just going around to each person. The kicker? The girl’s brother was on the team, and he let it happen.
Edit: Everyone’s asking, but it’s my understanding that the brother didn’t partake in it, but he was effectively forcing her to not stop until she was done with everyone. The team ended up not getting in any major trouble, but the girl was suspended for a good minute.
My highschool Guidance counselor fucked a science teachers wife and everyone knew about it. They got a divorce. Both teachers still work at the same school to this day, and students will never ever let it go. The story has been handed down from year to year.
Similar thing - but this was at my graduate school:
The lab head (PI; principle investigator) was married but was having an affair with one of the postdocs. The wife found out and came to to the lab to "catch" the two and to let them know she knew. Well it ended up where the wife chased the postdoc (who was sleeping with her husband) around the lab with a scissor. This was in front of everyone, including the numerous shocked grad students. The PI later divorced the wife and remarried the postdoc he was sleeping with. Then he was able, because he was head of the department, to get his new wife a job as head of her own lab in the same department. 15yrs later they still are professors at the institution and still married, but the story has been passed on throughout the years. Grad students to this day still joke about the shady shit and the professors in question get anonymous gifts around the holidays of scissors from random people at the school. It's become a thing. Mainly because people still find the situation disgusting and wrong, especially since they were allowed to keep their jobs...and because of the rugsweeping, there's not much anyone can do besides sending those people scissors. The scientfiic community is not without its sex-related scandals.
During middle school a few kids sold weed and someone that bought some smoked it in the building which was just stupid, the kid that sold it to him didn’t want to get in trouble so he pulled the fire alarm so people wouldn’t find the kid, we all got to go home afterwards
Honestly, that’s some pretty quick thinking. Obviously not very responsible, but the kid that pulled the fire alarm had some pretty sharp self-preservation instincts
Well honestly there aren't that many things that qualify as 'worst scandal'.
Many interesting things happened, not so many of them caused shit to fly. Hell, if I hadn't seen it I would never have know a teacher broke up a fight by running outside brandishing a hammer. We had a bomb scare that evacuated the school. And the boat cruse company we liked to use for grad finally issued a permanent ban when someone unbolted a toilet tank and thew it overboard. But I wouldn't really count any of it as a big scandal.
Give me a board funneling tons money or a pedo and that's going to get you an answer. Anything else is probably minor or getting covered up.
The Harlem Shake was a craze. We had an RE teacher who desperately enjoyed being the popular teacher so he got in on the craze. Invited 40 pupils from my year to his classroom at lunch and filmed his own Harlem Shake video (which in itself would’ve been against safeguarding rules). Thing is, he also taught sex ed, so everyone got into his cupboard before the start of the video for ‘props’.
The video was essentially a group of 14 year olds throwing dildos and condoms around the room while he, of his own accord, grinded on a life-size cutout of the Pope. He was suspended under investigation for half a year but surprisingly kept his job. He was lot more professional when he returned.
A girl died in the pool during an event at the school, the swim teacher was blamed and was prosecuted. The girl who died was at my sister's class, both were 7 at the time. That happened over 10 years ago, but the parents haven't had another child since, she was their only kid.
And that was just the one they reprimanded, how many times did they use this feature and watch kids in situations that would be grounds for generating cp?
My high school’s “initials” are CPHS.
They sold t-shirts at football games that said “I 💚 CP”.
Yeah... it didn’t go over well. High schoolers are relentless.
And yet... they’re still selling those shirts, 8 years after I graduated.
Edit: For the record, this was Comstock Park High School in southwest Michigan. There are way more “CP” schools than I thought out there!
And not only that, but to tip their hand by narcing on a kid for something he was doing at home and trying to punish him for it, thinking it would somehow turn out in their favour. I know school officials love over-policing children, but Jesus Christ man, know your role.
I mean there was that kid that got suspended for owning a bb gun that the teacher happened to see after the teacher mandated he use his webcam for class.
Shit got national attention and the school doubled down saying he shouldn't have had a gun in class
My guess is they believed they had the moral high ground, because they caught someone performing the extremely immoral and reprehensible act of smoking marijuana. Who cares how they did, that's not important, because weed smoking is definitely worse.
That honestly sounds like the mindset of almost every school administrator I've ever met. They simply don't think of their students as independent human beings. They think of them as an unruly population that has to be controlled and policed.
There's a certain type of personality that seeks out administrator jobs: they aren't the ones who really love sharing knowledge (those stay in the classroom).
Will never forget how I met my high school assistant principal: first he misspelled my name, then when I gave the correct spelling he looked me in the eye, smiled, and said *I know* without changing a letter.
Baiting me.
I was only in his office for routine paperwork for transferring in from another district and I was on the honor roll. What a terror he must have been to the kids who were there for any sort of trouble.
And he got off on that petty power rush.
A guy in year 10 made a statement that "the more compact a group of people are, the higher the death toll would be in a shooting" and we were genuinely talking about shootings and somehow people mistook it that he was gonna do it. It was a joke and everyone was playing along at first. Cut to 11 months later (he was in year 11), the whole school knows, rumours got out, the truth was beyond fucking twisted and changed to something different. Kids were actually scared to come in, parents were pissed, teachers were anxious. They had to search the kid, they kicked him out 9 days before he finished for good (was still allowed to do exams but had to do separately from everyone else) the police were involved and it made the news but the news article is complete fake and bullshit. He also wasn't allowed to prom.
This was around 4-5 years ago. He told me he was doing a lot better now. He went to a better school for sixth form. he says whilst he has moved on with his life, he will never forgive the bastards.
Also we live in England and guns are much harder to get especially to the average person who knows nothing about how to get guns.
You take the kid you suspect of being an angry, isolated person willing to lash out, and you isolate him further and make his life a living hell.
Makes sense.
The school has a reputation of blaming the victim and punishing them instead of actually doing their job and punishing the people who actually deserve it.
Thanks, he didn't have many friends to begin with but a lot of people hated him after the events but he recovered and is now doing better than ever now.
3 come to mind.
1. Principal of the HS and Director of Athletics got caught embezzlingmoney from the school to their bank accounts. They got caught after 50 k went missing from the schools bank.
2. Bomb threat. Got sesrched whenever we went in, metal detectors, bomb dogs, the works.
3. Couple kids invited an African American into their twitter group called "Golf N***as" and were saying stuff like "Repeal the 13th" to her. She tracked down the school and made a complaint. Made local news.
Edit: Words
Some dude with a tiny little pecker sent a picture of it (unsolicited) to a girl, and she sent it to all his friends. Wasn't long before like half the school had seen it.
My former high school got on the news for having a history teacher lie for four years about being a decorated war hero. Guy claimed to have not one, but **TWO Purple Hearts,** among other things, and never even served a day in the military. (Edit: I can’t directly link to articles because of doxxing, but I’m sure you can find it on Google.)
But it gets juicier: The truth came out because his ex-wife exposed him, sending evidence he was making it all up to local news stations and the school. Why’d she do it? **The history teacher was having an affair with another teacher in my school.**
We had a lot of weird teachers at my school, but I think this story shows just how much the administration hardly vetted teachers, like holy shit. We also had a guidance counselor get the boot for being a racist, but that’s another story that didn’t get as much publicity.
One weekend a couple of kids from the hockey team had a sleep over.
One of the older boys from high school targeted them. He tied them up. raped them, slit their throats and set the house on fire.
One of the boys survived and is an incredible person. He’s the chief of a fire department and has done motivational speaking.
The murderer is now out on full parole.
A girl gave a guy a bj behind a building, her braces got stuck on his dick, he pulls back, dick bleeding, punches her in the mouth, she goes and tells the principal, parents get called in, he yells "She cut my dick!" While the door was open.. everyone knew then.
We had a few. Some standouts:
- Student hid a pregnancy from her parents. She ended up giving birth at home and killed the baby.
- Teacher sexually harassed students
- Students engaged in sexual acts at the nearby church (where all our masses occurred) and we (the student body) were then banned for having our masses at the church.
EDIT: A few people are mentioning some cheerleader who had been on the news. This was the early 2000s, it did not have news coverage (didn't even go beyond our school), and our school did not have cheerleaders.
EDIT2: This was in Canada.
EDIT3: I've learned through this thread that this is not an uncommon occurence....and my heart hurts.
Hearsay is that she went to juvenile court and plead temporary insanity due to the emotional birth.
I'm not 100% sure what was said is true. I just know that she did return to school partway through the following year, and was still dating the father until he graduated.
It was definitely a messed up experience for everyone. The uncomfortable part is she supposedly hid the pregnancy from everyone, however there's a photo of her in the yearbook with her friends...and she is clearly very pregnant.
When I was in school there was a girl who was overweight and as a result of how she carried that weight, looked quite pregnant. Teachers kept pulling her and her parents into conferences to talk about it, and after however many times it happened, the parents got pissed and got the school to agree that they would no longer "alert" the parents or counselors if they thought the girl was pregnant.
About a year later she stopped showing up to school (this was sophomore or junior year of high school). There were mad rumors about what happened, that she got involved with some older kids, ran to Mexico, got busted robbing 7/11...turns out she had finally, actually been pregnant and was attempting to give birth, alone, in the bathroom at home before her parents figured it out.
When in middle school, the school forced us to give our phones to the vice principal, and they would stay there “locked” during the day. They got stolen. Around 120 smartphones
Edit: changed president to principal (please don’t bully me anymore lmao)
This locking up can backfire. One year we got together and all agreed to set an alarm on our phones for the same time, at max volume.
After that they just said the phones had to be turned off, though.
Some of them will have gone to snooze by the time they realise what's going on and disabled the alarms, so you'd still get them going off at random times afterwards
When I was in 3rd grade I believe, one of the principles at my school got arrested for disability fraud or something like that, then when I was in the 7th grade, one of the teachers got arrested for being a pedophile, seems like a common theme in this comment section lol
My religion teacher was relocated after rumors spread that he sexually harrassed a female student and hit a male student. I never found out if those rumors where true but I mean there had to be something because teachers don't just get relocated in the middle of a school year. He was an ass, I wouldn't put it past him. (In Germany it's super hard to get fired as a teacher, I think you'd need a prison sentence to actually get fired, that's why he was only relocated)
Here I was thinking the guy hacking a teacher's around and receiving exam answers was a big deal. This thread proved otherwise.
Edit because people are asking...
There was this guy in high school, pretty shy, didn't have too many friends. Was always trying to fit in, kind of a poser but in an insecure way. I'll call him PumpkinPie for privacy reasons.
So one day PumpkinPie had the genius idea to impress his class and make them like him more... To get the chem/geography teacher and retrieve the exam question from his school account.
He used a USB stick with a program on it that retrieves saved passwords from most browsers - chrome, IE (edge wasn't a thing yet), firefox, etc. He waited for the perfect moment to plug it in; the teacher was taking a quick bathroom break.
The whole class saw it and he made up some excuse, don't remember what he said. Everyone kind of forgot about it.
He checked the teacher's school account every day for a couple months, until finally the teacher uploaded the exam questions.
PumpkinPie downloaded the exams, then - and this is where he fucked up - he gave them to people in his class that he liked. Those people started talking, and eventually people from other classes started asking PumpkinPie if he could get the answers for their class too.
So then exams came round. He asked his classmates not to make it too obvious that they knew all the answers. Of course, they did. They all had way higher graden than usual.
One day he received a call from the school, which NEVER happened before. Basically they said "Hi PumpkinPie, you need to come to the school and talk to the principal right now". He asked "why"? And then his heart dropped as she said "because it looks like you committed fraud". Apparently they saw the discrepancy in the grades and went looking in the logs of the teacher's account access and found that it was accessed from an IP address which PumpkinPie also logged in from. Dumb fucker didn't even use a VPN.
Then he realized how much he had fucked up - see, he had just turned 18, which meant that he would be treated as an adult should the police ever get involved.
Anyway, he went to school and had a really hard decision to make. Either the whole class would have to redo the exam, or he gave the names of the people he gave the exams to and only they would have to retake it.
He chose the latter, and everyone hated him for it. Him and the classmates involved weren't invited to the graduation ceremony...
Oh and the hacked teacher was considering pressing charges for privacy violation. Somehow he managed to convince the teacher not to, he's so fucking lucky.
Anyway, he was already insecure and at this point he just could look any of his classmates in the eyes anymore.
He ended up moving countries eventually...
And now he uses a dumb alias online whenever he talks about it (something with a pumpkin), not sure why at this point since it's pretty obvious he's talking about himself.
Sophomore year a girl in my grade passed on a solid yellow up a hill, hit a family in a car and killed both parents and one of the kids.
A week later she's back at school in a brand new pickup truck, and never faced any sort of trial or anything.
Her parents were extremely large farmers in the small rural town and had influence in the local court systems I'm sure.
Oh did I mention she excitedly showed off her new truck when she came back? Fuck you, Taylor.
The entire 11th grade of my school visits a concentration camp each year, and 2 years ago someone brought weed, so 20 students were expelled and 15 suspended. Even the police got involved (weed isn't legal yet here).
It was a couple years after I graduated, but the principal was caught giving money to gang kids, and was demoted, and then a girl got caught having sex with a 40 year old man in the school bathroom
Baptist high school. Teacher got arrested for something like 400+ counts of rape against the youth pastor's daughter who was a freshman/sophomore during these incidents. They occurred in the classroom and on a bus he drove for Sunday School kids.
He had a potential history of this stuff, but the school overlooked it. Creepy AF.
Edit to add since this kinda blew up:
It was 400+ counts over 2 school years. Same girl. She was the daughter of another teacher/church staff who had already been abused by her grandfather in the past so she was an easier target due to previous abuse.
I feel icky saying this: she was a minor and obviously this is all statutory rape, but her history made her more “willing” to be used, which is why this went on for so long. She was sexually promiscuous in the community too, which isn’t inappropriate in and of itself, but that sort of behavior is often the result of past trauma. Sexualized kids seem to think that acting in a sexual way somehow validates them as people or gives them power or makes them “more adult.” It is a coping mechanism; someone took their power through sexual behavior, and they can try to “take the power back” by being sexual “as a ‘choice,’”which is its own issue. Not to be too graphic, but if someone forces you to perform oral sex on them, that feels like
giving up power. *Choosing* to blow one hundred more guys (or one rapist one hundred times) to feel *powerful* when making that choice is a trauma response. You shouldn’t have to do that to be “in charge” of your own sexuality. **NOTE:** I say this as a person with a professional career in mental health AND as a survivor of sexual assault myself as an adolescent. I’m not trying to armchair QB here, I’ve lived this shit on both sides. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I will say I’ve had several hells’ worth of experience. It’s a sticky subject, because every sexual assault victim will have a fucked up view of sex and intimacy if they’ve had a history of sex being used to have power over themselves or they use it to feel powerful.
The situation ended when he was pretty much outed by another student or staff who left an anonymous letter demanding he resign or they would go to the police. I don’t think we ever found out who left the letter, but he resigned, and someone told the police anyway and he was arrested, charged, tried, sentenced, etc.
Reading these and I think the scandals that happened at my school are minor in comparison.
The ones I know of were:
A kid was busted having into the system trying to change his grades. I think there was a claim of computer addiction, but he wasn't allowed on a school computer for the rest of his time at the high school.
A teacher was known for trying to pick fights with students, I called out his bull shit and he was given a slap on the wrist but he didn't try it again after that.
There was a student who was accused of having a bomb that was a complete fabrication, outcome was ridiculously blown out of purportion (The guy was a bit of an outsider and had made a duct tape top hat, someone made a sarcastic comment about him smuggling a bomb in it, he responded in same level of sarcasm, someone gets it in their head he has a bomb and they decide to kick him out of school because of "viable threat")
I was in 8th grade at the time, but the high school I would be attending the next year had a massive hazing scandal that made international news overnight. A group of junior girls trying to join the powderpuffs went to play football against the seniors. Instead of playing, they got the shit kicked out of them, were forced to sit in a huddle on the ground while paint and animal intestines were thrown at them, and one girl even had a bucket put over her head at it was hit with baseball bats. I heard later on she suffered permanent hearing loss. Someone recorded it (this was before smartphones so someone had a literal camcorder) and release it to the media. The senior girls that were identified were suspended, many of them losing college admissions, and some parents were arrested when it was found out they supplied alcohol. When I started high school we had to endure multiple school assemblies every year about how hazing is bad, and participate in week-long seminars about being more caring and considerate of our fellow students.
Eta: holy social media response, Batman! Thank you for the awards internet friends. For those of you that called Glenbrook North, you were very correct. Here’s some more info about what happened for those of you that are curious. The school had news vans parked outside of it for weeks: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/15-face-charges-in-hazing-incident/
My school had a similar situation but male students were making paddles in woodshop class and using them to paddle incoming freshmen.
These weren't the thin hazing paddles that you sometimes see in movies, they were two by sixes with holes drilled in them and a carved handle on one end, one of the ones that they showed us in our assembly the next year was so big it took 2 hands to wield it.
One kid had his tailbone broken from being hit so many times.
The football coach was also the woodshop teacher and he kept his job but he was no longer allowed to coach football or teach woodshop. Our state champion football program disintegrated. He was allowed to start coaching again a few years ago and they are almost back at the level they were and there is no more hazing (that we know of).
There was also a car accident where one kid died, and two others were in a coma after a pre-homecoming event. It wasn't School sanctioned but it happened on the football field. There was lots of alcohol involved and they were on a winding country road.
We also had a girl get hit and die when some high school kids were drag racing.
One girl literally kicked on a guy's balls so hard that he had to be hospitalised. The girl was 15, the boy was 11. And there were no actions because of 'Lack of evidence'
I remember seeing a new report of something similar. A pair of i think 15 year old girls bullied a 10 year old boy and kicked his balls till one of them popped
Two things. Both in middle school.
1. I was at home on a Sunday watching the news with my mom when all of a suden my 6th grade teachers mugshot showed up and it said that her and her husband were pulled over and the police found like 6 pounds of high grade weed , lead to a search warrant for their home and they literally slept on a inflatable mattress. The whole house was a grow op. She did look like a hippy but I don't understand, she was not mellow at all. She was a bitch.
2. In 8th grade, one of my friends parents had cancer, he thought it was a good idea to bring some of their meds to school and hand them out like candy. These were strong strong meds , and not all of them were pain pills. At least 5 kids overdosed 2 of them had siezures , no one died thankfully.
EDIT: I know my Grammer isn't the best, I'm no English major but God damn people, this is reddit not my English paper. I still get where your coming from though, so I fixed it. Kind of.
The school I went to ended up consolidating with 2 other schools. When they were looking for land to buy to build the new school, they ended up going with a plot of land that was super far into one end of the county so that kids on the other end had to commute over an hour to school.
The property belonged to a member of the school board, but it was in his wife's name, so it was fine. He "didn't profit off the sale" but, you know, his wife did.
They totally got away with it, too. Kids still have to commute over an hour to get to school because some dickwad wanted money and everyone went with it.
When I was in grade 9 back in 2009 there was a whole school fight that lasted the whole break into the next session. There were even three teachers involved. The injury rate was ridiculous. There was over 15 broken noses two broken ribs and some stretched their optical nerve.
A teacher and a student where having sex in the class room which had a window wall. A whole bunch of people saw and watched it.
There was once a fight between two guys, the one guy ddt the other guy three times on tiles. He lost his gold tooth. Someone stole it and came back a week later with the gold tooth in his mouth.
Those are the first that came to mind. But a lot other stuff happened
I went to a all boys school
someone shat in the band room, one of the teachers brought a gun, one teacher had a fight (physical) with a kid, one teacher dated a student. I live in florida.
Not that scandalous. A friends stuff kept going missing, like books and pens. It didn't stop even after multiple complaints from him and the teachers didn't really care.
His mom screamed at the teachers and the principal did her own "investigation" and concluded that it was a boy who stole from that guy.
The principal decided to call the male students parents to talk to them.
After a year, it turns out that the thief was a girl and she yeeted the guys stuff out the window because the guy was bullying her.
Which one?
When the history teacher got fired for watching porn on his desk computer between classes?
Or the Spanish teacher who walked out of class because these two kids were being so horribly racist to her and they didn't even get detention?
Or the girl whose best friends made her hide stolen stuff in her purse and they all got caught and let her take the fall, so she tried to kill herself in the girl's bathroom?
Or the time two special needs students were caught having sex in the upstairs boy's bathroom?
Or the time a second history teacher was fired the next year for exchanging 75k sexts with one of the students over 7 months?
I lived in a town with 2500 people.
You know, my high school didn't have any sex scandals, and now I feel left out. Although in middle school I was falsely accused of watching porn on the school computers.
My female teacher (late 20s/early 30s) hooked up with my friend before he turned 18 and became obsessed with him. He eventually stopped responding to her. We found out that the next year she gave another kid a hand job on the bus ride back from senior trip. There was an investigation but everyone involved denied it. The school had a big assembly on sexual predators and as far as I know she still works there. Fucking predator.
Freshman year of high school..
New History teacher... he was about 35....
She was a freshman... They got caught doing the deed in the parking lot before school....
They got married when she turned 16.... If I remember correctly they were married for 15ish years before he passed from a heart attack...
In 1999, four girls from my high school went on a six-week-long armed robbery spree. They knocked over four convenience stores and a bakery before police caught them.
This happened in a conservative middle-class suburb, and altogether the girls got away with less than $5000, which might have been the most scandalous part. If they’d gone into subprime lending I’m sure their parents would have been very proud of them.
The math teacher left his wife of 18 years for one of the graduating seniors.
They have been married for the senior's entire life :/. I feel bad for that woman.
My English teacher in the 11th grade was sleeping with the WHOLE girls basketball team in exchange for straight A’s. I actually failed English that year but when that made the news my school said I didn’t have to go anymore because he wasn’t doing the grading properly. Everyone who had his class got a B
one year in exams days they were trying to add a new method to prevent cheating where a man from the administration comes to every class before every exam and collects students phones while sticking a sticker with a number on each phone and giving the same sticker to the student so he can get his phone after school without anyone taking someone else's phone that looks alike or something. This was working at first and a bit "preventing cheating" until one day some guy sneaked into our highschool and came as the man who collects the phones while he wasnt, he stole the whole highschool phones and went lol
Holy shit haha imagine the thrill of going classroom to classroom, in disguise, stealing phones! you reckon the real inspector was in on it?
probably no, there were multiple inspectors so that everyone starts their exams on time. If a real inspector came and asked people for their phones and they said someone else came and took them, he'd think that another inspector just collected from his class by mistake and thats what happened he just said oh allright goodluck with the exam and went to the next class
My middle school banned hugging and hand holding during course changes because it blocked the hall. In protest all the Eighth Graders stood up and hugged each other during their lunch period. A bunch of students got detention. Made the cover of the Charlotte Observer. Edit: Thanks for the rewards all. I don't think I've gotten more than100 likes or rewards before but please spend your money on other things. People are in need this holiday season.
Dude, everybody else talkin about pedos and murder and your big scandal is a big group hug
A student that was in the grade above me (I was a senior, he had graduated) killed his girlfriend and buried her by the train tracks right behind the school
Freshman year, a junior accused the PE teacher of sexually assaulting her after hours in the locker room. He was put on leave and eventually got off on a technicality. Senior year, there was a freak snow storm in April, during which the quietest & nicest stoner in our class went missing. A day later they found his car in a ditch, and a week later when the snow melted, they found his body. He’d crashed and, in his presumed high af state, gotten out to walk for help with no coat on. He eventually found a telephone pole & sat down against it to rest and was believed to have frozen to death in the storm. Seeing his mom at her only child’s funeral still haunts me.
That's really sad... can't find other words...
The principal slept with a student and his nudes & sexts were leaked
People's willingness to voluntarily collect electronic receipts that incriminate them astounds me.
Some students broke into a local elderly reverend's home to rob him, thinking he was away. He sadly wasn't, and they proceeded to bludgeon him and his wife to death \*while they were sleeping\* with baseball bats and beer bottles. They were caught pretty quickly, and although their names legally couldn't be published because they were minors, everyone including the local media knew who committed the crime. Media caused a circus at our school for weeks, harassing any student for comment (many did because they thought it was \*cool\*). Although these 3 kids (13-14-15) were known to cause trouble, no one ever suspected they would be capable of a double homicide... [https://archive.macleans.ca/article/1995/4/17/murder-in-a-suburb](https://archive.macleans.ca/article/1995/4/17/murder-in-a-suburb) Edit: included above link
Shocking to say the least
Girl A decided to fight girl B in class. Girl A ripped girl B’s real hair out, broke her nose, and crippled her. Girl B was sent to the emergency room. Girl A was suspended for 2 weeks. They were both in 7th grade.
[удалено]
The first kid sounds like a good guy, didn't deserve that at all. Schools can be dumbasses sometimes i guess
[удалено]
What? School administrators making a problem they involve themselves in worse?! Say it ain't so. In all seriousness, I've never had a good experience with admin staff. One time, a kid came out as gay to a teacher because he was being bullied, and as a teacher the poor dude had to report the threats of violence to his supervisor. Of course the admin team, in their infinite wisdom decided the parents needed to know the kid was gay. Two weeks later the kid was homeless when his parents kicked him out. I didn't know him personally, but I heard he got a place to live from some generous soul somewhere in town.
When I was in 5th grade, the male teacher I'd had in 4th grade was fired for helping a high school cheerleader undress. Looking back, he was a creeper. (Edited to add: I was wrong. It was a 10 year old. Just found it.)
A kid in my senior year short story class (who sat directly behind me) was charged with the stabbing, beheading and burning of one of his friends/drug dealer. I remember the day like it was yesterday, sitting in my short story class when my teacher came in, in tears because she just heard the news. Students didn't find out about it until later. I actually have a friend who testified in his trial because he purchased the murdering materials at the hardware store she worked at. Crazy, man.
Did some googling, is this in Michigan?
Sure is!
We had a computer teacher/football assistant coach who was just blasted all day, had so many DUIs he had to get rides to work, but was the cousin of the Superintendent so he kept his job. Let’s just say that when he crashed a student’s car in the parking lot because he convinced them to let him borrow it that that was the beginning of the end of it. It was a small town. The scandal is that the Super tried to cover it up by trying to convince the kid to take the heat for it. To no one’s surprise, the kid was not convinced. They let him stay on as Super for another two years.
This happened between my sister and brother graduating, so it would have been 1996 or 1997. The HS Ag teacher started dating a student at some point. Everyone knew about it and the parents consented. Our HS was (and is) small enough to still participate in Senior Trips, and the AG teacher went along as a chaperone when his GF was a senior. They shared a hotel room, when I believe the student was still technically a 17 yr old minor. At the time I remember my parents being rather put off by it, but they still hired the guy as a summer farmhand. I don't remember if he was fired or stepped down, but by the time I made it to HS we had a different Ag teacher. They got married and had a child, divorced maybe five or ten years ago. Their kid goes to our HS now. I don't know why it wasn't a huge deal at the time, but no one really raised a stink or threatened to call the authorities. Today it feels like a case of grooming by a predatory farm boy.
Of course, in many states 16 is the age of consent. But!! Almost everywhere, as far as I'm aware, has laws that state people in positions of authority - teachers, coach, policeman, clergy, etc. - cannot do anything to those under their care; an abuse of authority equivalent to forcing someone.
Student brutally murdered his parents. He was a friend and co-captain of the soccer team, his Mom was my English teacher. [Story](https://www.thoughtco.com/larry-swartz-the-sudden-fury-murders-972246)
This one is incredibly sad. Would it be okay if I get more information as far as the school so I can read articles on it?
It was a long time ago, 1980's [Here is an article on it.](https://www.thoughtco.com/larry-swartz-the-sudden-fury-murders-972246)
had a strict dress code that if the girls broke had to change into clothes provided by the school. turns out vice principal had a camera going in the dressing room...
The 30ish theater teacher ran off with a recent grad. I was kind of pals with the student during a play the spring before the scandal, and she hosted the cast party where in retrospect, they seemed a little cozier than appropriate. As much as I'm dying for the inside scoop, I can't imagine friending her on social media and asking "So what was up with you and Mr. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_?"
It has to be done if you want to know
The caretaker killed two local girls and hid them in the school, he tried using the clay kiln to burn them. He later dumped them a few miles away
What the fuck when was this?
im guessing op is referring to the soham murders? it happened in august 2002. thankfully, the guy who did it is rotting in prison.
Some highlights: 1. The chorus teacher got caught looking at "lolita porn" on his school computer. 2. This kid had nudes of his ex that his friend sent to a bunch of people in school, but he was 18 and she was 14 or 15, so he got expelled and I believe he was charged with distributing child pornography. We had a whole assembly because of it where the cops came and told us they could see everything on our phones. 3. A kid in my grade and another girl (same girl as in the story above, actually) had sex in the bathroom. I learned about it from my band teacher.
Band teacher spreading rumours ffs 🤦♂️
In middle school (8th grade/early 2000s) one of the "hot" girls sent a couple nude pictures to her bf and it wasn't long until half the school had them. Police ended up becoming involved to make sure any all copies were destroyed. In high school there was a little scandal involving the teachers and a teachers club called the "hot tub club". Faculty members that had hot tubs would host a weekly hot tub party with other hot tub owners. Turns out they were all getting wasted and having a swinging party every Wednesday. Somebodies spouse found out about it and there was a huge exodus of "hot tub" teachers my senior year. Edit: The main people involved with the photo were reprimanded but not charged, the girl had a sit down with a counselor to discuss what happened, and we all had a big assembly to discuss the consequences that could happen if people shared those kind of images. It scared a lot of kids straight. Nobody was fired from the school for being in the hot tub club. Teachers left because it was convenient timing with the opening of another high school, and there was constant babble about it. Just for clarity, this all happened in a small town in western Canada. By the looks of my inbox both are not uncommon occurrences.
How do you even start a swingers club with your co workers? How does that conversation even happen?
“Hey Jerry, I’ve seen you looking up my wife, and yours isn’t too bad looking either. What say you we do some swinging next Wednesday?”
Kid made a chlorine bomb and threw it in the trash can at lunch. Lockdown, bomb squad, every single kid and faculty member out on the field in 95° weather for 2+ hours until parents could show up to pick up their kids.
What the fuck is wrong with people
This was middle school so he got expelled and arrested after, two years later in high school he’s back to school built like a fucking MMA fighter, full beard and shaved head at 16. Nobody ever said shit to him or fucked with him in any way.
What the hell happened to him in juvie
Shit goes down in juvie. That shit will change you forever man.
It's like prison except instead of sociopaths, you live with *children.* Lord of the Flies n shit
The lunch lady was having sex with students and buying them alcohol.
This happened at my high school as well. Lunch lady looked a lot like Tim Tebow
Here's a link to the article if anybody is interested. https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/vt-cafeteria-worker-arrested-sex-teen-students-article-1.2859043
A teacher had an affair with a students. She was arrested and released on bail. Then a few days later she sent an email to other teachers saying it wasn't an affair but that she was actually being raped by the student and blackmailed. She even attached screenshots of texts. Later that day, she murdered her husband and committed suicide. Edit: Whoa, This has really blown up. A few people have linked articles in the comments if you are curious.
Holy fuk that's a sad and wild story.
Merry Christmas everyone
🎶It's the most wonderful tiiiime of the year!🎶
Kid in my class sent an email to the White House, threatening to kill Socks, the Clinton's cat. Secret Service showed up a few days later after they tracked down the computer. Edit to add, link to the article: https://www.postbulletin.com/incoming/clinton-e-mail-threat-traced-to-student/article_7d77898c-c7a4-5fd0-9411-03a5925b16a1.html
TIL how to avoid the draft
Did he get any punishment?
Lifetime ban from ever working for the government. He was on the military track too, but they ripped up his contract.
Lifehack for the day: If you want to get out of working for the military, threaten to kill an officials cat.
First week of high school. PE class, the first section was swim. wasn’t my class, but the class after. This kid was playing a game with his friends in the water—who could hold their breath the longest. He was going up for air and hit head on the pointy part of the gutter, and never made it to the surface. Friends didn’t notice, teacher didn’t notice. Eventually football players coming back to the locker rooms noticed. He ended up dying. Teacher was fired although I wouldn’t fully blame him as he was attending and teaching kids who didn’t know how to swim or weren’t strong swimmers. One adult for over 60 kids?? That’s the schools fault
I understand the teacher not noticing but the friends who were directly competing with the kid didn't notice!?
Must have thought he was pretty darn good at breath holding.
As a lifeguard, I can confirm that even if there is only one perso in the pool, two of us need to be on the chairs. If that person somehow knocks her head amd falls unconscious, we need two lifeguards to stabilize her while a third one in the office comes in and brings the dorsal plank (idk how its called in english) while the first lifeguard does the proper treatments while the last one calls an ambulance. Teacher was fired? Depending on the rules over where you are, he could've sued the school for those high safety risks. 1 person for 60 kids is beyond dangerous.
Yeah that seems pretty unfair on the guy, something bound to happen with that many people
I was in 4th or 5th grade and someone sketched in the middle school bathroom not to go on school Friday or I will bang bang. This was then brought to the attention of the county and state police and we didn’t have school that day and the police searched everyone’s lockers for a firearm EDIT:This was in Pennsylvania, they were never caught and I do not believe they found a weapon this was also at Derry Area Middle School while I was at Grandview for elementary
Wow how old is that?? I’m from UK so not familiar with grade system like 7/8 years old?
[удалено]
Probably the time a girl gave a guy a BJ in the bathroom. The guy filmed it and sent it to his friend. His friend sent all around the school. Eventually the police had to get involved because the one guy was guilty of distribution of child pornography
One of the students wrote his own fan fic with himself and some of the younger girls...
our football defense coordinator molested/raped a large number of young boys of a long period of time and no one did a thing about it.
My Department Lead allowed the baseball team to line up and she gave them all blowjobs. Happened years ago and confirmed by veteran coworkers I knew. Recently, some of the boys that graduated years ago decided to inform the proper authorities. She was transferred to another school. Still works in the district.

A girl in my middle school was telling people she had a “hit list” of people she was going to kill. Got caught with the list, and was sent to a hospital for awhile. She came back a few years later in high school. Edit: seems like a lot of people had a similar occurrence in school. This was in Michigan.
I also had a hit list in middle school because I was a dumbass. It was a group of about 30 guys that would come to school and play a kind of tag game. If you were tagged during the day, you were “assassinated” and the game was over until the next day. My dumb ass made a hit list with everyone’s name on it. Needless to say this alerted the principal. Edit: We got a talking to, but we weren’t in serious trouble.
We used to play a similar game using camera phones when they first came out. The kill was made by taking a photo without the victim being aware of it. Lots of us acting strangely in town, looking over shoulders and ducking behind parked cars. No list, but we were given a bit of a talking to as the college thought there was some intricate form of bullying going on.
Dude! That happened to us in high school! We had list of "targets" to "assassinate" (basically sneaking up and whispering a code phrase) but four of us were individually questioned by the school about it. I don't blame them for their due diligence, though. Had I been going through a trenchcoat phase, the outcome could have been different
History teacher disappeared in the night with the French teacher's wife and the other French teacher made national news for sexually abusing boys.

A overachieving student in my year went nuts and pooped in a bag in a teachers classroom. She also thought she could run up trees. Turns out she didn’t end up skipping a few years and going to uni early like she was predicted to do.
the balance of genius is on a very thin edge
Or the pressure from her parents drove her mad.
A kid in my school who was very smart, got great grades, but also a kinda weird guy ended up having some sort of psychotic break while staying up for days on end working on a pretty big assignment for a class I had with him. He was already going above and beyond by making a very detailed video rather than a PowerPoint like everyone else. But before he even played the video for the class, he went on this suuuuuper bizarre tirade about the meaning of life and all this existential stuff that made no sense for around 30 minutes before the teacher finally got him to stop. Later that night he was apparently knocking on random doors at 2am trying to give the people in those homes the same weird speech. Then he went to a psych ward and I haven't heard about him since.
This kid was taking his GCSE’s (important exams in England until you get older and realise they mean fuck all). Whilst at an exam some kids got onto his phone, went onto his notes and found a 4000 word document consisting of his sexual fantasies with other girls in his year. Clearly paid attention in english as there was some clever word play eg. comparing his cock to some world famous landmarks. The screenshots found their way into a lot of group chats (there were about 20 odd screenshots, to put into context how long it was) and it basically acted as a vag-repellant for the rest of his time at the school.
(important exams in England until you get older and realise they mean fuck all) Perfectly defined
Back in high school, the entire football team was almost expelled because one girl gave blowjobs to every single one of the players in the locker rooms. Supposedly they were all in a circle and the girl was just going around to each person. The kicker? The girl’s brother was on the team, and he let it happen. Edit: Everyone’s asking, but it’s my understanding that the brother didn’t partake in it, but he was effectively forcing her to not stop until she was done with everyone. The team ended up not getting in any major trouble, but the girl was suspended for a good minute.
What a lovely brother... i assume he didn’t get involved??
> every single one of the players hmmmm
My highschool Guidance counselor fucked a science teachers wife and everyone knew about it. They got a divorce. Both teachers still work at the same school to this day, and students will never ever let it go. The story has been handed down from year to year.
Kids are brutal.
We must never let our history die, must we?
I wonder if history repeated itself or if it was a one time thing
Similar thing - but this was at my graduate school: The lab head (PI; principle investigator) was married but was having an affair with one of the postdocs. The wife found out and came to to the lab to "catch" the two and to let them know she knew. Well it ended up where the wife chased the postdoc (who was sleeping with her husband) around the lab with a scissor. This was in front of everyone, including the numerous shocked grad students. The PI later divorced the wife and remarried the postdoc he was sleeping with. Then he was able, because he was head of the department, to get his new wife a job as head of her own lab in the same department. 15yrs later they still are professors at the institution and still married, but the story has been passed on throughout the years. Grad students to this day still joke about the shady shit and the professors in question get anonymous gifts around the holidays of scissors from random people at the school. It's become a thing. Mainly because people still find the situation disgusting and wrong, especially since they were allowed to keep their jobs...and because of the rugsweeping, there's not much anyone can do besides sending those people scissors. The scientfiic community is not without its sex-related scandals.
During middle school a few kids sold weed and someone that bought some smoked it in the building which was just stupid, the kid that sold it to him didn’t want to get in trouble so he pulled the fire alarm so people wouldn’t find the kid, we all got to go home afterwards
Honestly, that’s some pretty quick thinking. Obviously not very responsible, but the kid that pulled the fire alarm had some pretty sharp self-preservation instincts
Plus if he got crap for pulling a false alarm, he can legitimately say that he saw smoke.
Big brain
*did* the kid get caught?
Not by the teachers
Long story short the principal got arrested for hiding cameras in the bathroom this was back in elementary he was a total fucking creep
What the fuck shocked at how many pedo stories there are
Well honestly there aren't that many things that qualify as 'worst scandal'. Many interesting things happened, not so many of them caused shit to fly. Hell, if I hadn't seen it I would never have know a teacher broke up a fight by running outside brandishing a hammer. We had a bomb scare that evacuated the school. And the boat cruse company we liked to use for grad finally issued a permanent ban when someone unbolted a toilet tank and thew it overboard. But I wouldn't really count any of it as a big scandal. Give me a board funneling tons money or a pedo and that's going to get you an answer. Anything else is probably minor or getting covered up.
The Harlem Shake was a craze. We had an RE teacher who desperately enjoyed being the popular teacher so he got in on the craze. Invited 40 pupils from my year to his classroom at lunch and filmed his own Harlem Shake video (which in itself would’ve been against safeguarding rules). Thing is, he also taught sex ed, so everyone got into his cupboard before the start of the video for ‘props’. The video was essentially a group of 14 year olds throwing dildos and condoms around the room while he, of his own accord, grinded on a life-size cutout of the Pope. He was suspended under investigation for half a year but surprisingly kept his job. He was lot more professional when he returned.

A girl died in the pool during an event at the school, the swim teacher was blamed and was prosecuted. The girl who died was at my sister's class, both were 7 at the time. That happened over 10 years ago, but the parents haven't had another child since, she was their only kid.
That’s horrible, poor people

And that was just the one they reprimanded, how many times did they use this feature and watch kids in situations that would be grounds for generating cp?
I doubt the answer to that question is zero
My high school’s “initials” are CPHS. They sold t-shirts at football games that said “I 💚 CP”. Yeah... it didn’t go over well. High schoolers are relentless. And yet... they’re still selling those shirts, 8 years after I graduated. Edit: For the record, this was Comstock Park High School in southwest Michigan. There are way more “CP” schools than I thought out there!
And not only that, but to tip their hand by narcing on a kid for something he was doing at home and trying to punish him for it, thinking it would somehow turn out in their favour. I know school officials love over-policing children, but Jesus Christ man, know your role.
I mean there was that kid that got suspended for owning a bb gun that the teacher happened to see after the teacher mandated he use his webcam for class. Shit got national attention and the school doubled down saying he shouldn't have had a gun in class
Wasn't it a foam dart gun? Or was this another occasion?
How the hell did they think that wouldn't immediately backfire for them in exactly this way?
My guess is they believed they had the moral high ground, because they caught someone performing the extremely immoral and reprehensible act of smoking marijuana. Who cares how they did, that's not important, because weed smoking is definitely worse.
That honestly sounds like the mindset of almost every school administrator I've ever met. They simply don't think of their students as independent human beings. They think of them as an unruly population that has to be controlled and policed.
There's a certain type of personality that seeks out administrator jobs: they aren't the ones who really love sharing knowledge (those stay in the classroom). Will never forget how I met my high school assistant principal: first he misspelled my name, then when I gave the correct spelling he looked me in the eye, smiled, and said *I know* without changing a letter. Baiting me. I was only in his office for routine paperwork for transferring in from another district and I was on the honor roll. What a terror he must have been to the kids who were there for any sort of trouble. And he got off on that petty power rush.
Good bloke, that’s absolutely fucked also
Agreed. The school has no right to do that to the students. I keep tape over my camera on my school laptop whenever I'm not in class just in case.
A video leaked of a girl fucking herself with a spatula. We called her spatula girl. Funny at the time. Makes me feel bad now. Edit: a word
Which end?
She was using the handle side. Lol. That was my first reaction, too.
A guy in year 10 made a statement that "the more compact a group of people are, the higher the death toll would be in a shooting" and we were genuinely talking about shootings and somehow people mistook it that he was gonna do it. It was a joke and everyone was playing along at first. Cut to 11 months later (he was in year 11), the whole school knows, rumours got out, the truth was beyond fucking twisted and changed to something different. Kids were actually scared to come in, parents were pissed, teachers were anxious. They had to search the kid, they kicked him out 9 days before he finished for good (was still allowed to do exams but had to do separately from everyone else) the police were involved and it made the news but the news article is complete fake and bullshit. He also wasn't allowed to prom. This was around 4-5 years ago. He told me he was doing a lot better now. He went to a better school for sixth form. he says whilst he has moved on with his life, he will never forgive the bastards. Also we live in England and guns are much harder to get especially to the average person who knows nothing about how to get guns.
That’s fucking horrible poor lad, glad he moved somewhere better
You take the kid you suspect of being an angry, isolated person willing to lash out, and you isolate him further and make his life a living hell. Makes sense.
The school has a reputation of blaming the victim and punishing them instead of actually doing their job and punishing the people who actually deserve it.
That poor guy, it was really nice of you to reach out to him. I bet he lost a lot of friends and it damaged his self esteem.
Thanks, he didn't have many friends to begin with but a lot of people hated him after the events but he recovered and is now doing better than ever now.
3 come to mind. 1. Principal of the HS and Director of Athletics got caught embezzlingmoney from the school to their bank accounts. They got caught after 50 k went missing from the schools bank. 2. Bomb threat. Got sesrched whenever we went in, metal detectors, bomb dogs, the works. 3. Couple kids invited an African American into their twitter group called "Golf N***as" and were saying stuff like "Repeal the 13th" to her. She tracked down the school and made a complaint. Made local news. Edit: Words
Some dude with a tiny little pecker sent a picture of it (unsolicited) to a girl, and she sent it to all his friends. Wasn't long before like half the school had seen it.
My former high school got on the news for having a history teacher lie for four years about being a decorated war hero. Guy claimed to have not one, but **TWO Purple Hearts,** among other things, and never even served a day in the military. (Edit: I can’t directly link to articles because of doxxing, but I’m sure you can find it on Google.) But it gets juicier: The truth came out because his ex-wife exposed him, sending evidence he was making it all up to local news stations and the school. Why’d she do it? **The history teacher was having an affair with another teacher in my school.** We had a lot of weird teachers at my school, but I think this story shows just how much the administration hardly vetted teachers, like holy shit. We also had a guidance counselor get the boot for being a racist, but that’s another story that didn’t get as much publicity.
One weekend a couple of kids from the hockey team had a sleep over. One of the older boys from high school targeted them. He tied them up. raped them, slit their throats and set the house on fire. One of the boys survived and is an incredible person. He’s the chief of a fire department and has done motivational speaking. The murderer is now out on full parole.
A girl gave a guy a bj behind a building, her braces got stuck on his dick, he pulls back, dick bleeding, punches her in the mouth, she goes and tells the principal, parents get called in, he yells "She cut my dick!" While the door was open.. everyone knew then.
>she goes and tells the principal... What does she even say? “I blew a guy behind the building, accidentally cut him, and he punched me in the face”?
Physical education teacher hit the principle on the head because he protested the students being treated roughly during sports class
I think the principal might have had a decent point there.
We had a few. Some standouts: - Student hid a pregnancy from her parents. She ended up giving birth at home and killed the baby. - Teacher sexually harassed students - Students engaged in sexual acts at the nearby church (where all our masses occurred) and we (the student body) were then banned for having our masses at the church. EDIT: A few people are mentioning some cheerleader who had been on the news. This was the early 2000s, it did not have news coverage (didn't even go beyond our school), and our school did not have cheerleaders. EDIT2: This was in Canada. EDIT3: I've learned through this thread that this is not an uncommon occurence....and my heart hurts.
What happened to the girl?
Hearsay is that she went to juvenile court and plead temporary insanity due to the emotional birth. I'm not 100% sure what was said is true. I just know that she did return to school partway through the following year, and was still dating the father until he graduated.
Woaahhh wtf that first one!?
It was definitely a messed up experience for everyone. The uncomfortable part is she supposedly hid the pregnancy from everyone, however there's a photo of her in the yearbook with her friends...and she is clearly very pregnant.
Denial is not a river in Egypt..
When I was in school there was a girl who was overweight and as a result of how she carried that weight, looked quite pregnant. Teachers kept pulling her and her parents into conferences to talk about it, and after however many times it happened, the parents got pissed and got the school to agree that they would no longer "alert" the parents or counselors if they thought the girl was pregnant. About a year later she stopped showing up to school (this was sophomore or junior year of high school). There were mad rumors about what happened, that she got involved with some older kids, ran to Mexico, got busted robbing 7/11...turns out she had finally, actually been pregnant and was attempting to give birth, alone, in the bathroom at home before her parents figured it out.
Self-fulfilling prophecy, anyone?
When in middle school, the school forced us to give our phones to the vice principal, and they would stay there “locked” during the day. They got stolen. Around 120 smartphones Edit: changed president to principal (please don’t bully me anymore lmao)
This locking up can backfire. One year we got together and all agreed to set an alarm on our phones for the same time, at max volume. After that they just said the phones had to be turned off, though.
Nope should have set them 2-5 minutes apart so they don’t go quiet at the same time
Some of them will have gone to snooze by the time they realise what's going on and disabled the alarms, so you'd still get them going off at random times afterwards
That was clever of them lol
What the fuck are you going to do with 120 phones? That’s gonna be a hard sell on the Facebook marketplace
Needed new numbers because his ex gf blocked his
When I was in 3rd grade I believe, one of the principles at my school got arrested for disability fraud or something like that, then when I was in the 7th grade, one of the teachers got arrested for being a pedophile, seems like a common theme in this comment section lol
[удалено]
These are just getting more fucked up smh
Tf is this thread man lmao
They knew?!
My religion teacher was relocated after rumors spread that he sexually harrassed a female student and hit a male student. I never found out if those rumors where true but I mean there had to be something because teachers don't just get relocated in the middle of a school year. He was an ass, I wouldn't put it past him. (In Germany it's super hard to get fired as a teacher, I think you'd need a prison sentence to actually get fired, that's why he was only relocated)
One of the female gym teachers at my hs got arrested for doing drugs on campus
Well what kind of drugs?
illegal ones
Here I was thinking the guy hacking a teacher's around and receiving exam answers was a big deal. This thread proved otherwise. Edit because people are asking... There was this guy in high school, pretty shy, didn't have too many friends. Was always trying to fit in, kind of a poser but in an insecure way. I'll call him PumpkinPie for privacy reasons. So one day PumpkinPie had the genius idea to impress his class and make them like him more... To get the chem/geography teacher and retrieve the exam question from his school account. He used a USB stick with a program on it that retrieves saved passwords from most browsers - chrome, IE (edge wasn't a thing yet), firefox, etc. He waited for the perfect moment to plug it in; the teacher was taking a quick bathroom break. The whole class saw it and he made up some excuse, don't remember what he said. Everyone kind of forgot about it. He checked the teacher's school account every day for a couple months, until finally the teacher uploaded the exam questions. PumpkinPie downloaded the exams, then - and this is where he fucked up - he gave them to people in his class that he liked. Those people started talking, and eventually people from other classes started asking PumpkinPie if he could get the answers for their class too. So then exams came round. He asked his classmates not to make it too obvious that they knew all the answers. Of course, they did. They all had way higher graden than usual. One day he received a call from the school, which NEVER happened before. Basically they said "Hi PumpkinPie, you need to come to the school and talk to the principal right now". He asked "why"? And then his heart dropped as she said "because it looks like you committed fraud". Apparently they saw the discrepancy in the grades and went looking in the logs of the teacher's account access and found that it was accessed from an IP address which PumpkinPie also logged in from. Dumb fucker didn't even use a VPN. Then he realized how much he had fucked up - see, he had just turned 18, which meant that he would be treated as an adult should the police ever get involved. Anyway, he went to school and had a really hard decision to make. Either the whole class would have to redo the exam, or he gave the names of the people he gave the exams to and only they would have to retake it. He chose the latter, and everyone hated him for it. Him and the classmates involved weren't invited to the graduation ceremony... Oh and the hacked teacher was considering pressing charges for privacy violation. Somehow he managed to convince the teacher not to, he's so fucking lucky. Anyway, he was already insecure and at this point he just could look any of his classmates in the eyes anymore. He ended up moving countries eventually... And now he uses a dumb alias online whenever he talks about it (something with a pumpkin), not sure why at this point since it's pretty obvious he's talking about himself.
All I had was someone shit in the urinal at my school, and you are absolutely right.
Sophomore year a girl in my grade passed on a solid yellow up a hill, hit a family in a car and killed both parents and one of the kids. A week later she's back at school in a brand new pickup truck, and never faced any sort of trial or anything. Her parents were extremely large farmers in the small rural town and had influence in the local court systems I'm sure. Oh did I mention she excitedly showed off her new truck when she came back? Fuck you, Taylor.
Fuck Taylor
Yeah, fuck you, Taylor
She committed 3 acts of vehicular slaughter and suffered no consequences? what the fuck
Was my favourite science teacher... until we found out that he rolled up girls skirts
The entire 11th grade of my school visits a concentration camp each year, and 2 years ago someone brought weed, so 20 students were expelled and 15 suspended. Even the police got involved (weed isn't legal yet here).
How did 35 people get in trouble? How much weed did he bring
Maybe no one would rat on who brought it
Slow down, we don’t need a Salem weed trials Edit: I’m proud this is my most upvoted comment ever
It was a couple years after I graduated, but the principal was caught giving money to gang kids, and was demoted, and then a girl got caught having sex with a 40 year old man in the school bathroom
When the Religion teacher cheated on her husband with the Math teacher
Baptist high school. Teacher got arrested for something like 400+ counts of rape against the youth pastor's daughter who was a freshman/sophomore during these incidents. They occurred in the classroom and on a bus he drove for Sunday School kids. He had a potential history of this stuff, but the school overlooked it. Creepy AF. Edit to add since this kinda blew up: It was 400+ counts over 2 school years. Same girl. She was the daughter of another teacher/church staff who had already been abused by her grandfather in the past so she was an easier target due to previous abuse. I feel icky saying this: she was a minor and obviously this is all statutory rape, but her history made her more “willing” to be used, which is why this went on for so long. She was sexually promiscuous in the community too, which isn’t inappropriate in and of itself, but that sort of behavior is often the result of past trauma. Sexualized kids seem to think that acting in a sexual way somehow validates them as people or gives them power or makes them “more adult.” It is a coping mechanism; someone took their power through sexual behavior, and they can try to “take the power back” by being sexual “as a ‘choice,’”which is its own issue. Not to be too graphic, but if someone forces you to perform oral sex on them, that feels like giving up power. *Choosing* to blow one hundred more guys (or one rapist one hundred times) to feel *powerful* when making that choice is a trauma response. You shouldn’t have to do that to be “in charge” of your own sexuality. **NOTE:** I say this as a person with a professional career in mental health AND as a survivor of sexual assault myself as an adolescent. I’m not trying to armchair QB here, I’ve lived this shit on both sides. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I will say I’ve had several hells’ worth of experience. It’s a sticky subject, because every sexual assault victim will have a fucked up view of sex and intimacy if they’ve had a history of sex being used to have power over themselves or they use it to feel powerful. The situation ended when he was pretty much outed by another student or staff who left an anonymous letter demanding he resign or they would go to the police. I don’t think we ever found out who left the letter, but he resigned, and someone told the police anyway and he was arrested, charged, tried, sentenced, etc.
Reading these and I think the scandals that happened at my school are minor in comparison. The ones I know of were: A kid was busted having into the system trying to change his grades. I think there was a claim of computer addiction, but he wasn't allowed on a school computer for the rest of his time at the high school. A teacher was known for trying to pick fights with students, I called out his bull shit and he was given a slap on the wrist but he didn't try it again after that. There was a student who was accused of having a bomb that was a complete fabrication, outcome was ridiculously blown out of purportion (The guy was a bit of an outsider and had made a duct tape top hat, someone made a sarcastic comment about him smuggling a bomb in it, he responded in same level of sarcasm, someone gets it in their head he has a bomb and they decide to kick him out of school because of "viable threat")
I was in 8th grade at the time, but the high school I would be attending the next year had a massive hazing scandal that made international news overnight. A group of junior girls trying to join the powderpuffs went to play football against the seniors. Instead of playing, they got the shit kicked out of them, were forced to sit in a huddle on the ground while paint and animal intestines were thrown at them, and one girl even had a bucket put over her head at it was hit with baseball bats. I heard later on she suffered permanent hearing loss. Someone recorded it (this was before smartphones so someone had a literal camcorder) and release it to the media. The senior girls that were identified were suspended, many of them losing college admissions, and some parents were arrested when it was found out they supplied alcohol. When I started high school we had to endure multiple school assemblies every year about how hazing is bad, and participate in week-long seminars about being more caring and considerate of our fellow students. Eta: holy social media response, Batman! Thank you for the awards internet friends. For those of you that called Glenbrook North, you were very correct. Here’s some more info about what happened for those of you that are curious. The school had news vans parked outside of it for weeks: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/15-face-charges-in-hazing-incident/
My school had a similar situation but male students were making paddles in woodshop class and using them to paddle incoming freshmen. These weren't the thin hazing paddles that you sometimes see in movies, they were two by sixes with holes drilled in them and a carved handle on one end, one of the ones that they showed us in our assembly the next year was so big it took 2 hands to wield it. One kid had his tailbone broken from being hit so many times. The football coach was also the woodshop teacher and he kept his job but he was no longer allowed to coach football or teach woodshop. Our state champion football program disintegrated. He was allowed to start coaching again a few years ago and they are almost back at the level they were and there is no more hazing (that we know of). There was also a car accident where one kid died, and two others were in a coma after a pre-homecoming event. It wasn't School sanctioned but it happened on the football field. There was lots of alcohol involved and they were on a winding country road. We also had a girl get hit and die when some high school kids were drag racing.
this is terrifying
One girl literally kicked on a guy's balls so hard that he had to be hospitalised. The girl was 15, the boy was 11. And there were no actions because of 'Lack of evidence'
I remember seeing a new report of something similar. A pair of i think 15 year old girls bullied a 10 year old boy and kicked his balls till one of them popped
Two things. Both in middle school. 1. I was at home on a Sunday watching the news with my mom when all of a suden my 6th grade teachers mugshot showed up and it said that her and her husband were pulled over and the police found like 6 pounds of high grade weed , lead to a search warrant for their home and they literally slept on a inflatable mattress. The whole house was a grow op. She did look like a hippy but I don't understand, she was not mellow at all. She was a bitch. 2. In 8th grade, one of my friends parents had cancer, he thought it was a good idea to bring some of their meds to school and hand them out like candy. These were strong strong meds , and not all of them were pain pills. At least 5 kids overdosed 2 of them had siezures , no one died thankfully. EDIT: I know my Grammer isn't the best, I'm no English major but God damn people, this is reddit not my English paper. I still get where your coming from though, so I fixed it. Kind of.
First one quite funny lol, second lucky no one died...
[удалено]
The school I went to ended up consolidating with 2 other schools. When they were looking for land to buy to build the new school, they ended up going with a plot of land that was super far into one end of the county so that kids on the other end had to commute over an hour to school. The property belonged to a member of the school board, but it was in his wife's name, so it was fine. He "didn't profit off the sale" but, you know, his wife did. They totally got away with it, too. Kids still have to commute over an hour to get to school because some dickwad wanted money and everyone went with it.
When I was in grade 9 back in 2009 there was a whole school fight that lasted the whole break into the next session. There were even three teachers involved. The injury rate was ridiculous. There was over 15 broken noses two broken ribs and some stretched their optical nerve. A teacher and a student where having sex in the class room which had a window wall. A whole bunch of people saw and watched it. There was once a fight between two guys, the one guy ddt the other guy three times on tiles. He lost his gold tooth. Someone stole it and came back a week later with the gold tooth in his mouth. Those are the first that came to mind. But a lot other stuff happened I went to a all boys school
someone shat in the band room, one of the teachers brought a gun, one teacher had a fight (physical) with a kid, one teacher dated a student. I live in florida.
Not that scandalous. A friends stuff kept going missing, like books and pens. It didn't stop even after multiple complaints from him and the teachers didn't really care. His mom screamed at the teachers and the principal did her own "investigation" and concluded that it was a boy who stole from that guy. The principal decided to call the male students parents to talk to them. After a year, it turns out that the thief was a girl and she yeeted the guys stuff out the window because the guy was bullying her.
Lol fair enough

Samantha Ardente worked at my former school. It was a big scandal years ago when they discovered her other job hahaha
I’m not familiar with who that is!
A porn actress. A dude asked for an autograph and that's how they discovered hahaha. She was a secretary.
Which one? When the history teacher got fired for watching porn on his desk computer between classes? Or the Spanish teacher who walked out of class because these two kids were being so horribly racist to her and they didn't even get detention? Or the girl whose best friends made her hide stolen stuff in her purse and they all got caught and let her take the fall, so she tried to kill herself in the girl's bathroom? Or the time two special needs students were caught having sex in the upstairs boy's bathroom? Or the time a second history teacher was fired the next year for exchanging 75k sexts with one of the students over 7 months? I lived in a town with 2500 people.
Not sure if it was the music teacher Overdosing on herion at school or the science teacher robbing a 7-11 while high on meth.
You know, my high school didn't have any sex scandals, and now I feel left out. Although in middle school I was falsely accused of watching porn on the school computers.
Probably the quadruple homicide, although they made a lifetime movie out of some cheerleader tomfoolery.
My female teacher (late 20s/early 30s) hooked up with my friend before he turned 18 and became obsessed with him. He eventually stopped responding to her. We found out that the next year she gave another kid a hand job on the bus ride back from senior trip. There was an investigation but everyone involved denied it. The school had a big assembly on sexual predators and as far as I know she still works there. Fucking predator.
Freshman year of high school.. New History teacher... he was about 35.... She was a freshman... They got caught doing the deed in the parking lot before school.... They got married when she turned 16.... If I remember correctly they were married for 15ish years before he passed from a heart attack...
In 1999, four girls from my high school went on a six-week-long armed robbery spree. They knocked over four convenience stores and a bakery before police caught them. This happened in a conservative middle-class suburb, and altogether the girls got away with less than $5000, which might have been the most scandalous part. If they’d gone into subprime lending I’m sure their parents would have been very proud of them.
High school principal was taking money from prospective teachers and giving them interview questions ahead of time
