i have several stories :D (keep in mind i went to highschool in switzerland)
in my junior year our chemist teacher f*cked up while preparing a class and he kinda blow up the lab.. nobody was hurt except for his ego because he was a 'real' chemist before he became a teacher. the lab wasn't useable for the rest of my school time
our school was in this very old building (build in the 19th cent.) and kinda shapped like the whitehouse with a big staircase in the middle of the building and one very small staircase in each wing
in my last school year we had a fire alarm test that went wrong. when the alarm went off the fire doors closed immediately and most of the students had to leave the building thourgh the small staircases in the wings, which was way to small for all those students. a smaller part was trapped because of the closed doors. the chaos was perfect when nobody knew where the meeting point was. if there had been a real fire a lot of students would have died and the fire department was puzzled how this could happend.
also in my last school year some freshmen tried o burn something in the school toilet and the result was, that the fire alarm didn't went off at all.
and my french teacher was an old perv (like super old). as a girl you just had to show some skin and a bit cleavage and your grade got better. i'm not proud of it but my french grade got better aswell sometimes...
and i have even crazier stories from my junior highschool years in germany... that school was f*cked up

Not in high school, but in the 7th grade, 2 boys were fighting. Don't know the reason, but I've never seen a fight like that before or since. The blood on one of the boy's white t-shirt is a sight I have never forgotten and this was about 40 years ago.
Another one: Same grade. One of the boys that was in a gang; and back in my days, you could tell the gang members because they wore top notch clothes. He was found in the truck of a car at the age of 25; yup dead.

My group of friends normally played Board or Card games during our Lunchroom Study Halls. We were playing Spoons this time and two of our friends were fighting over the last item in the middle. A plastic spoon. One of them, Travis, broke said spoon and tried to stab it in our other friend’s back because the struggle triggered his PTSD. Needless to say we broke it up and teachers came over. Colin was pretty pissed at almost being stabbed.. That’s the last time we played Spoons.

I graduated in 1996, and high school was hell, and while it scarred me it also gave me some ‘fun’ stories. My HS was the ‘arts’ school for our city, drugs were huge, we had the drug sniffing dogs in at least a few times and we had undercover cops acting as teachers. Someone got ‘curb smilied’ in a fight, that was disturbing. Football initiation usually ended up with a few players kicked off the team every year. I’m sure there is a lot more I’m forgetting

2 stories, but same subject matter, pre-Kardashian era.
Freshman year (at a predominantly white, non-secular school) I was called horse-ass by a guy and soon everyone was calling me that. I was horrified and got really depressed. I transferred schools for the rest of high school to a public school. My senior year I was a teachers aide in a science class (I was also taking 3 other AP science classes.) I was sitting on a stool with my back to the door and someone came up to me and whispered "I'd recognize that a$$ anywhere" turned around and it was my physics teacher. Never went back to physics for the rest of the year and got an A.

This was about 1988 and we had an arsonist. Not just a regular arsonist but a daily arsonist. They first burned down the greenhouse the agriculture kids used overnight. Then they started throwing Molotov cocktails into wings of the school. This was every day. Months of having to evacuate the school daily and wait outside in the cold and rain for hours while the fire people rushed in. Sometimes it would be the special education wing, another time it was the language department then in a minor day it was just a garbage can.
This was all over the news, we made lots of nervous jokes about it. The literal FBI was called in and had special agents patrolling the hallways in suits with earpieces. A few students guys thought it was funny and would dress like the agents. We had the locks on our lockers taken off and Zero, no matter what, bathroom breaks but the school kept being set on fire.
My friends and I eventually would just go to my house and hang out since I lived close and it was in February when all of this began.
One day they just stopped but they never caught the people/person. There was a rumor that it was a kid who’d dropped out and would come up to the school and do it, but nothing ever happened.
Silver living at the end, with all the insurance money from extensive fire damage, we got a really fancy new theater and repairs made so our school looked far better. I wish I could add photos because my old yearbook has drawings on the inner cover with kids roasting marshmallows next to the burning fire, the god dressed like the FBI and funny bumper sticks some kid had custom made.
Now whenever I meet someone my age who went to school at the same time as I did (late 80’s) but at a different school they always bring up the fires. No one was hurt so it’s all just a bizarre joke to us in our teen years.
If my kids school was being bombed and set on fire daily, people would be flipping out, but it was the 80’s and that’s just the way it was

Not high school, but middle school we used to have a quote board.
"Its only two bucks at the dollar store"
"Gooder"
"Whos betheny?"
We also had that one classmate who brought in ham and jelly sandwhichs almost every day. :/

My friends and I were not in the rebellious crowd and pretty much blended into the background. Except this one day. We were bored and one of the lads knew his parents weren't home. So at lunchtime we walked down to his house and he pulled out this home brew of his dads. Well, we had a good old drink of this rancid ale and returned to school. We all kept our heads down except this one lad. He was on his way to his first lesson and the head of year stopped him to ask if he was ok. He wasn't ok. He projectile vomited all over the poor man. Then, he was too drunk or too stupid to keep his mouth shut and we all ended up getting a jolly good telling-off. We never did that again.

Started as a Taylor Swift themed camp-out birthday party, ended as a drunken lesbian orgy in which I got my first tattoo. Epic night. Made the best friends, bonded over hangovers and Cards Against Humanity, kinks editions.

When I was in Jr high, we had a very obese shop teacher who had worked at the school for a number of years and taught shop and social studies. One morning just before lunch the principal came over the PA announcing that all students would be sent home at the end of the current period. Ok weird… found out next day from both an announcement and in home room from friends that were in the class that the shop teacher had a heart attack mid class and died before they could get him to hospital. I guess they didn’t want kids milling around with cops and an ambulance around.

In computer class in 1978 our computers in the lab were teletypes connected via a phone modem to an actual computer elsewhere. Someone had the phone number for the computer system of a local bank, which we called and received a modem tone and a request to enter a password. We spent some time trying to guess the password based on local TV commercials for the bank, but never did get in. My first and last attempt at hacking!

Our French teacher was having an emotional breakdown, when the only black kid in our school decided this was the day to be a complete wind-up merchant (British phrase - to be unruly). Well the teacher snapped and called the black kid... You guessed it, the N word. This was in the early 90's and it was a massive shock to everyone in class. The black kids father was notified who came to the school with a baseball bat, he didn't find the teacher but we never saw the French teacher again. We also had a male teacher who molested a few kids (girls and boys) he got moved to an all boys private school.

I had true ADHD! The actual real sh*it that wasn’t an excuse in high school. Only slept 4 hours a night, stayed up reading books and calling into talk radio at 9 years old. Pre internet.
I would sneak out at night and siphon the gas out of my teachers cars and slash tires in high school just so they would be late and I could talk smack back too them. Horrible I know but I was 17

At my high school the girls always smoked cigarettes and often pot (which was illegal then) in the girls' bathrooms, especially the ones in the main building that had the cafeteria and auditorium. It was so bad sometimes that you could see the smoke rolling out the door when it opened. For some reason, not much was done about this. Sometimes a teacher would come in, and the girl nearest the door would yell, "Teacher!" and everyone would drop their smokes in the toilet, but that's about it unless the teacher actually saw you with a smoke in your hand. Then maybe you got detention or sent home for the day, but never anything very serious.
