People Are Sharing The Worst Scandals That Happened At Their Schools, And Here Are 40 Of The Darkest Ones

Apparently our principal stole money from our school and left the country.

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).

3 come to mind.

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.

Bomb threat. Got sesrched whenever we went in, metal detectors, bomb dogs, the works.

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.

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.

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.

I was in fourth or fifth 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

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

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 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.

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.

at my old school: kid brought in an explosive new school: teacher got suspended for a year for locking a child in a closet

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.

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. ___________?"

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.

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 sh*t 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")

My highschool Guidance counselor f*cked 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.

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

Teacher spilt acid on a girl.
Science class (obviously) first year of high school, the whale of my teacher was demonstrating different acid and how dangerous it was.

He then knocked a beaker over and it ran over the table onto a girl, and she screamed a bit, he shat himself and took her away. Got another teacher to clean it up.

He wasn’t teaching much longer in our school much longer, I also heard that the girls mum either sued or tried to sue the teacher and/ or school.

The acid had gone through her leggings and kinda mixed with her skin so she had to get some skin grafts to cover it.

The math teacher left his wife of 18 years for one of the graduating seniors.

One of the students wrote his own fan fic with himself and some of the younger girls...
