Posts: 100 - Karma: 10
i'm a senior in high school right now, so i've been going to school for about 13 years now. i know i'm not alone in this, but every time i've ever been in a fire drill, i've though, "Oh, man, i hope this is the one..." But the school's never actually been on fire. ever.

i've been thinking, has anyone's school ever actually burnt down?

We had two bomb threats in one day, best day ever. Relaxing on the soccer field for an hour. And we also had a propane leak, that was cool too. But I was dissappointed the school didn't explode.

my senior year of high school very shortly after comlumbine, we were evacuated 10 minutes in to first hour by the fire alarm after standing outside a few minutes we noticed smoke and then came the fire trucks. A student "firebombed" (can of gas lit by a sparkler) the mens lockeroom. This sucked even more because absolutely no one except the police was allowed into the school until monday (it happened on a friday) luckily my car keys were in my pocket, unfortunately for so many others all their stuff was locked in the school.

Didnt really happen to the current high school, but elsewhere in town was an older high school that had been vacant for like 5 years or so I think and one day some kids blew it up with some pipe bombs.

We had three fire alarms go off in one night in my dorm. They werent drills either. I guess people just suck at making popcorn in a microwave.

I'm also in high school, and I was walking down the street to a near by elementary where I occasionaly volunteer with a friend. When we got there it was total chaos. Half the school burnt inside, and the roof collapsed somewheres.

Lucky youngins. But it was a private school. So funding for it to be rebuilt will take forever. And this was like 4 days ago.

when i was in 6th grade i guess people in my school just started fainting for no apparent reason. so they evacuated all of us to the football field nearby. i think like 12 or so people ended up fainting that day. they never really figured out why tho.
