My senior year two of the twin boys in my class suffered an unimaginable year. The father was killed in October when he ran into the neighbor’s burning house to try to save the elderly man stuck inside. Driving home from college for their father’s funeral, the two older sons stopped to help a lady with a flat tire and were struck and killed by a drunk driver. The mother was diagnosed with brain cancer in January and passed away in April. These boys went from a family of six to just them in less than a year. They were some of the nicest and brightest kids you’d ever meet. One is now a pilot in the Navy and the other is trauma surgeon in the Army. I was never close to them but always had a special place in my heart for them. They handled the tragedies with grace and strength very few are capable of. I feel honored and undeserving knowing we have people like them serving in our armed forces.
Goldfinch that was gorgeous
Goldfinch bro I actually teared up at that that was beautiful
@Goldfinch that's the most perfect way anyone has said that, it really gave me a feeling of peacefulness.
fricking blessed comment
my heart goes out to them
The one where the girl stomped on the pregnant girl’s stomach... I can’t believe we have such monsters walking on our planet
Surprised she's walking free.
I know... people like that fill me with the darkest sort of despair, and I hate it...
@@julesc_bubblegumthat should be a life sentence for murder
All four years in hs someone died ... we where all freaked out low key
Taay_ Thegreat That exact shit happened at my school, but the fucked up thing was it was always one person from each grade. So 4 people would die while you are in school, but one would always be a one freshman, one sophomore, one junior, and one senior it was creepy af like we all knew alright someone in our grade is gonna die.

Also this wasn't high school, but our middle school theatre teacher who everyone knew and loved fell into a deep depression after his wife had suffered a miscarriage. He wasn't the same after that
My classmate's dad killed the mom because he thought she was having an affair and then shot himself.
That's very similar to what happened last year at my school the dad killed the mother, their daughter then himself
This girl called Ella Dalby was killed about a year ago now, and today someone made a diss track about her. Her mum was also stabbed multiple times by her boyfriend. Such a disgusting man.
Edit: he also denies it all
Do you have the link
Link?
I know I’m late but did the mum die?
My old principal defeated cancer, had someone carry her child, child was born, got cancer again, died when baby was less than 6 months old. Councelor office was open to anyone at anytime for rest of year
Had a teacher kill him self because he had an affair with a student and got found out, had newborns and was overqualified to be even working there in the first place.
Also 2 girls went to prison for life for extensively planning a school shooting.
Also kid murdered his whole family, except for his sister who got away... on a school night.
Welcome to Colorado
Edit: I remembered like 4 more things but it’s just more death and tragedy so y’all get the point
Erik Giovani I live in Denver. Co has so many tragedies
Yeah I live in Lakewood, maybe it ain’t as bad there but like, anywhere from golden to Denver isn’t near as bad as like Compton or Chicago or Detroit.. js
Why do we always have tragedies?
I used to live in Colorado Springs. I remember some guy settings fire to his ex gf's apartment. It was freezing the night it happened. Lot's of ppl had broken ankles from jumping out of windows onto icy asphalt and shit.
@Erik Giovani
Sounds like there are bigger problems with the administration of the school that aren’t being addressed...
This just happened, one of the most liveliest science teachers that everyone knew was just murdered on the 26th or 27th of December 2019 over Christmas break and we are making a memorial garden for her and the memorial services will be at the high school for her as well as a candlelight vigil at the fountains near downtown
One of my friends from German class went swimming with his family at the river. It's notorious for being a dangerous river, but it's fine if you stay in the shallows.
Well, his little sister (five or six years old) went out too far and got caught in the undertow and he went to go save her while someone else went to find help. Help arrived in time to save his sister, but he died. He'll forever be 16, but he died a hero.
I'm sorry for your loss. But at least he was willing to risk his own life to save her. I'm glad she's alive, but she must be traumatized and/or has brain damaged
This is pretty much exactly what happened to Naya Rivera. Honestly, both of them are heroes and they deserve to be remembered as such. Rip to both of them.
a plane hit my highschool, luckly only the sport area. 25 students died plus the pilot. later that day the mother of the pilot died of heart attack when she heard her son was dead. only 5 students and a gymteacher survived the crash. the rest of school was closed afterwards. and every year we remeber what happened and the ones who died.
Fake
youngdumbandbroke 11 nope this is my school nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christelijk_Lyceum_Apeldoorn plane crash
delyse karlas you probably coulda clarified this was 74 years ago
@Landyn chudzik I think they just mean it was lucky that it only hit the sports area instead of hitting the school buildings and potentially killing hundreds more. But I acknowledge there is nothing lucky about this scenario as a whole.
A car or SUV wrecked into the front section of the old version of my High School. This wreck did significant damage. The entire bldg was remodeled late 1990s mid 2000s if I recall.
A girl in the year below died during a match. She was perfectly healthy before and there were no warning signs. Turns out she had a brain haemorrhage. The whole school and community was devastated
middle school, two high honor roll students went home and their mom gunned them both down, rest in peace Calyx and Beau Schenecker
A friend of mine died in a pool. he jumped in, land the wrong way, and broke his neck. We were in the drama club together, and I had just seen him hours before. I heard about it and all the teachers lined the hallways. It still is hard to wrap my head around his death sometimes. He was in 8th grade when I was in 7th. He was the light of the whole school.
We had a young Romanian girl who was in my school. She and her family were extremely poor and had terrible living conditions. Right before we got back to school in Junior year she got electrocuted to death while taking a bath because there were wires who fell from the ceiling above her. Her family came here to offer her a better and brighter futur. She just wanted to look good for this special occasion.
We also averaged about a death every year at my high school. I only knew two people, one who died, and one that almost died. Here's their stories.
One was scared to go home because of an abusive step father. He decided to go to a near by cemetery with friends, where they were drinking some medicine in large quantities to get loopy and feel weird, as young freshmen try to do because they heard it would mess them up. The other friends went home, but my friend decided to stay out longer because he knew getting home that late would mean a beating. They tried to convince him to go with them, but he insisted. The way they got to the spot they were at, you had to cross over a large pipe that was over a rather small creek. As my friend went to leave, he fell, tripped maybe, something happened causing him to hit his head in the pipe, knocked him out, and he fell face down into the creek, where he drowned even though the water wasn't that deep.
The girl I knew didn't die, but she was in a car accident with her friend who was driving. She was speeding, lost control, and slammed into an gated electrical unit. The car doors wouldn't open due to how they were wedged, and a fire started at the front of the car. Her friend was knocked out, but my friend just had some minor injuries. She popped the trunk opened, and was able to pull herself AND her friend out even with her injuries. When paramedics came, her friend was pronounced dead, due to the impact. This girl risked her life, pulling, and heaving out her friend to save her, even though she was already gone.
Both stories still haunt me. To think, had a friend stayed that my friend would have been able to be flipped over out of the water.
To think about how scared my friend must have been after the accident, and how hearing that news after trying to save her friend would have felt... I will never forget those stories.
not high school but from kindergarten through middle school i attended a tiny private school, and by tiny i mean i graduated with 30 people in my grade. my 5th and 6th grade history teacher was known and loved by every student and teacher in the school. on the last day of 6th grade, she didn’t attend the graduation ceremony for the 8th graders. everyone was sad because they didn’t get to say goodbye before leaving for high school. over the summer, we found out that she had breast cancer and she was getting treated on the last day of school. at the beginning of my 7th grade year, we had an assembly praying for her and sharing our favorite memories. a few weeks later she passed away and the whole school was in shock. she had impacted so many students life’s. we all attended her funeral and spent the rest of our year remembering her in every way possible. love you mama t
We had a teacher in my Jr. High-school (2 of the grades were middle school, one was High School) that left before the end of the school year because he knew he was dying. I never met him, but before he passed he had taught there longer then anyone else, and was a pretty cool dude. I hope he's happy now, he deserves it.
I'm late but hopefully everyone can see this.
We had a kid bring a gun to the Middle school dance. Lets call this kid Jacob. Jacob got caught w/ it by another kid (We'll call this kid John). Jacob then got bailed out by his mother and a few days later, went to John's house and proceeded to shoot John's entire family.
Everyone miraculously survived but only John was in critical condition.
This happened a few weeks ago, and John is still in the hospital. For Jacob, however, he's still on the run and his whereabouts are unknown.
The whole school found out via snapchat, and I had a few classes w/ Jacob. He was always one of those kids who always dug into their backpacks very creepily, but never thought of it.
Best of wishes to you "Jacob"!
best of wishes to the guy who tried to commit mass murder?
@@TheOzziemozzie They meant it sarcastically I think(hope)
@@smellamyblake8352 i hope too lmao
My moms best friend killed himself when he was in 2nd grade.
In 7th grade a girl was caught cutting in class. She also claimed she was pregnant after being raped (she wasn’t, my mother used to be best friends with her mother and I asked about it all)
a teacher at my school comitted suicide during class. Apparently he was having a manic episode and after handing his students the test they were about to take he went into the empty classroom next door and jumped out of the window. This was 10 minutes after class started and I was late that day - I still feel so lucky to not have witnessed it - it must've happened right after I entered the building. school was cancelled that day.
A few years before I got to my school a boy was shot several times after walking his friend home, to make sure she got there ok. They never caught who did it but it was assumed that whoever did it mistook him for someone else.
It’s always the super good people who get hurt and die, and that semi fact bothers me a lot
in 4th grade, a kid died in his sleep after getting his tonsils out. i don't know many of the details but he was a really nice kid and everyone was very sad when it happened.
The principal was absolutely amazing. She knew everyone's name in a school of 700 or so. She got diagnosed with breast cancer. She would visit classrooms, read books to little kids, and stay strong even when she was close to dying. When we found out she beat it. Everyone was extremely happy. She got pregnant with a baby boy. No, the baby boy didn't die. He was healthy and her and her husband named him Xander, I think.
...
Three months later she got diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. It spread. But guess what? She beat it.
.....or so doctors thought.
she died that year in november. I remember it was the worst day of the school year. Everyone was trudging from class to class. People were sobbing in class.
RIP Melissa Zahn, 1985-2017
The Luby’s massacre. Teachers wife was shot. Students parents, etc.
My HS and neighboring HS has lost a total of 9-10 students in the past three years. 3-4 in a single car crash, 2 separate murders, and 3 suicides. We’ve lost almost 3 students a year.
Senior in high school got kicked out of his house due to partying/drugs. Stopped coming to school--this was a kid who'd been a three-sport athlete and got halfway decent grades. The school had an at-home coordinator who tried to get kid his missing assignments as he still needed to pass a couple classes to get his diploma. Kid told her where to shove the assignments. He was absolutely BEWILDERED when he was told that he wouldn't graduate and shot himself on what would have been his graduation day.
why am i spending my christian eve watching depressing reddit videos
Not high school but German gymnasium.
Allegedly there was a boy that was one year above me. When they went swimming in the town's public indoor swimming pool, he drowned. He jumped into the water and couldn't move no more. Nobody noticed in the first place that he was in danger because he was said to be a good swimmer. So I guess they noticed it when it was already too late.
Our principal announced it in school and made us do a minute of silence. His death was being talked about in the newspaper but apart from that, nobody ever mentioned it.
But I have way more stories like girls falling out of windows or people stabbing each other to death
My mom’s cousin was a principal. She died from cancer and all of the students put a rose in her office chair. It even hit the news. It was so sad and my mom wouldn’t stop crying for weeks. That was a couple of years ago...
I went to school with a family that suffered a carbon monoxide leak at their house in the middle of the night. There were 4 kids, an older daughter and a set of triplets. One of the triplets never woke up.
At my middle/high school (shared campus), a retired teacher turned long term sub had a heart attack during a class and died a few hours later in the hospital. School really came together after that. He was a super nice guy. I swear he knew every kid’s name and was always smiling. 3 years later it still feels weird not seeing him in the halls.
One of my best friends died this year in a car wreck, it was our third day of senior year
1:06 Sound like the beginning of Final Destination.
Aside from 3 suicides, one being by gun in our school's bathroom, I've witnessed other schools tragedies.
1. Freshman year: Lightning strikes a football field while football practice was going on, struck and killed one of my friends.
2. Senior year: a guy that I use to go camping with died in a car wreck.
recently a security guard at my school passed away like four days ago in a house fire :/ he was the most favorite one i’ll miss him a lot and i miss him saying good morning to me :/
This wasnt in highschool it was middle. I remember sitting in my math class during last period when the bell rang 10 minutes early everyone including the teacher was confused but since ither students were in the halls and leaving she let us go to 3 minutes go by and im just about to leave the school with my friend when we hear screaming and people running towards the exit behind us. I remember there being a huge circle and probably half of the whole school in one hallway. My english teacher was yelling at a 8th grader threatening to call the police and yelling at her for starting a riot. The whole school was told to go back to a classroom. My friend and i went into the nearest classroom and stayed there for 30 minutes til we were finally let out. My friend goes into her grandmas car and i meet up with my other friends who were going to walk home with me. We were chasing each other having fun when another student (im assuming its one of my friends friend cause they seemed to know each other) tells us that we have to get off school property or we might be arrested and that theres officers and ambulances surrounding the school. My friends and i thought it sounded ridiculous and didnt believe him until i turned around to see 3 police cars and 2 ambulances. My friends and i ran home and i told my mom what happened. About an hour after i got home my friend tells me what happened. Get ready....ahem
4 fights, 3 people were jumped, principal tried to break up a fight between 8th graders and was pushed down the staires, a girl brought a gun and took it out in the halleay which caused the riot and stuff, oh yea and a a girl stabbed another girl.....did i mention this all happened in 6th grade? Dont believe me look it up we are on google :)
Middle school. Our gym class was divided between two teachers. One of them who was loved by both teachers as well as being the boy's track coach and his students had to take a year off due to being in an accident. He came back only to get into another accident and die later in that year. It was actually just at the beginning of track season and the team went on to only lose one game after that. Our middle school also had a ceremony honoring those who were in honor roll/school sports/school play. His fellow gym teacher who coached the girl's team couldn't get through the speech honoring him as they were good friends and so the captain for the boy's team had to finish and also present the players. It was a somber moment
One kid was murdered outside of the school and his friend was paralyzed. One took a bullet to the head, died instantly. The other one is still alive but has been in a wheelcheer since the early 90s
This kid had a crush on me and I rejected him, as he was like 2 years younger then me. He jumped in front of a car and broke his leg pretty badly.
At my school two seniors who were bf/gf were going to see a college with the girls parents. It's was icy/snowy and her dad was driving. The two kids were in the backseat and mom in passenger seat. Dad lost control and crashed. Both parents survived and both teens were killed instantly. Very very sad. I can't imagine being those parents.
2 weeks ago my friend's older sister (who was 16) died of the flu. It was really unexpected and sad. I know the family closely and their mother is the sweetest little Filipino lady. We had a half day off of school so the staff could go to the funeral.
Not a student at our school but he dated one of our classmates. He worked nights at a gas station near the interstate. About a week before graduation, he was robbed and murdered while at work.
I like how this is a sad video, but there's cheerful music playing in the background
HA, 69 LIKES, keep it this way! Do not like my comment unless we're going to 420, or 666, maybe 360.
Also this was Edit 1
Rock such a messed up thing to like but ok
@@ozyf i don't like it, I'm basically just pointing it out. Why in the fookin fook would I enjoy happy, jolly, music over stories of niggas (don't worry bro I'm brown on the inside of me, you gotta chop me up) dying?
kind of fucking edit is that
I went to a ghetto high school and there was like one student death every year I was there. But in my senior year, this one girl who was a year below me died in gym class. She ran on the track and went into cardiac arrest. She was pronounced dead when she got to the hospital. The worst part, she was supposed to go to an assembly in the auditorium for juniors at that very moment. If she remembered to go to the assembly, she probably would have still been alive.
a kid at my school committed suicide after school when he went home. he had a lot of siblings that went there too. we had an assembly that was about suicide. a lot of students broke down from that. it was really sad. then later that year, a student died from a car accident on his way to school. he was popular, smart, had a lot of friends. his closest friends couldn't come to school for a couple weeks dealing with all that. then, the p.e coaches dad passed away due to a heart attack. he was well known around school. cheering at football games, popping into classrooms during school, great guy. that year was hard.

That’s damn near the beginning of Final Destination
A very pretty and sweet girl in my class lost her mother to breast cancer, and found out shortly after that her father had brain cancer and one year to live. He luckily lived longer just passed this last year and I still think about her from time to time and hope that she is well.
My high school had a small senior class. A senior died, car crash 6 days prior to high school graduation 🎓 . Sad. He drank a lot at a party & was in his car, died ☠️ at the scene.
In ninth grade, my history teacher died in a tragic car accident on Christmas Eve. He smashed into a tree with his pick up truck with his dog. Luckily the dog was OK, but sadly he died. Rest in peace Mr. Folsom
In the 5th grade there was this kid named Marcus...
He was one of the most charming and happy people I have ever met.
Band class had just finished up and the teachers came in, crying.
They had announced his Sister, Father and him were is a car crash. His sister survived.
R.I.P. 2008 - 2019
I was in middle school one of the boys in my grade and his sisters were shot by their dad. Only the youngest sister s survived. The older sister’s high school (the one I go to) painted a mural in their honor and hold a 5k for them every year since she was in track and field. Really sad day.
not my story but my cousins,
every month of the school year someone was stabbed to death in the study hall which was the 2nd building where there are no cameras.
this went on for 4 years, this is a huge school with almost 5000 students, so at my cousins graduation (2018) they were done calling everyone up, and then this guy that was graduating. walked up and confessed to every single murder. he Said every single name, why he did it, and then in the end we realized how MANY people he killed. [note: he stabbed, raped, cut up, ATE (a bit of the person) and left the people there with no trace, no dna left behind, but he left a note at the end of each year saying the murders, three people weren’t found until he confessed they were in the woods near the hs] the police were called but weren’t going to able to get there until 15 minutes bc no dispatcher was close enough so they sent the one closest. no one knew what to do bc of the shock. then as we stand there I realize there is a serial killer, serial assailant, and serial rapist, a whole cannibal just there, he explains everything and in the span of those 4 years he killed 40 people at school, and raped over 70+ people including his victims from school and outside of school. he has always suffered with mental illnesses and adhd. but when the police got there they arrested him and we all got the news a month later he was sentenced to life in prison without the chance of parole, and was convicted with 44 counts of murder, 22 counts of rape, and 1 count of sexual battery.
this is a lot Ik sorry 😳
Flor Figueroa THATS SO CRAZY OH MY GOODNESS
Articles/proof?
that is what I call a monster
We had a surprising amount of tragedy for a small school. A classmate in my 11th grade year committed suicide, a boy in 10th grade was skateboarding and was fatally hit by a car, and a group of about 4 seniors was in a car accident, killing one of them. It's sad to look back on it now that i'm older and realize just how young they all were.
I’m a junior and we’ve had a tragedy each year so far. Freshman year a girl tried to kill her self in the bathroom, sophomore year a guy killed himself, this year a freshman died of a drug overdose. It’s a yikes and there’s a lot of totally fucked up and depressed here. Hoping next year nothing happens but it’s been a trend for the past ten years :(
Nicest kid at our school died in a car wreck after a party up a super curvy/dangerous road known in our town... First time he decided not to drive home drunk, turns out his DD was drunk too 😕 everybody at school was quiet, the hallways were silent.. I'll never forget hearing the silence on a Friday in Jr/Sr HS.. RIP Levi
I wouldn't say it's really a tragedy but this happened 2 years ago. 3 brothers, senior, junior and freshman. The senior was arrested for having sex with an 8th grader when he was 18. He had recorded it and it leaked to all his friends and it was on the internet for a short period of time. The junior out of nowhere committed suicide. He was your typical popular guy and had never said anything that would make you think he'd do it. The majority of the junior class and a few people from other grades didn't show up to school for the next few days. The freshman was expelled because he forced nudes out of a girl in his grade and then showed everyone in our middle and high school. People laughed at her when she passed by them (which you'd expect) but once guys started touching her inappropriately when she passed them in the halls or catcalled her she left and never came back. That all happened within a few months and they moved schools but the next school year we heard about the freshman had been arrested for threatening to shoot the school on the second day. There was a whole investigation on him. There was also a 5th grader who was their sister and she looked miserable all the time. Haven't heard anything about them since the freshman was released from juvie last year.
I was in 6th Grade when this happened, but the school I went to combined Middle & High School, with the left side of the building being the High School, and the right side being the Middle School. The summer before I started 6th Grade my best friend (who was more like a brother to me than a mere friend) had to move away when his father's job transferred him to another state, and despite my best efforts we lost contact and haven't seen or spoken to each other in 18 years, and I can still remember crying myself to sleep the day he moved away.
Then, once I get into 6th Grade, I meet this new kid and we really hit it off, and I start to think that maybe I've found someone who can help to at least partially fill the void left by my best friend's absence. Just a really nice and friendly kid all around, and clearly well-liked by everyone else in class.
Then, one morning as my mom is driving me to school on her way to work, my mom overhears the local news mentioning my school and draws my attention to it, and they were talking about a student at my school who had died, though I did not hear them mention the name. To this day, I'm still haunted by what I said to my mom in response: "It's not going to be anyone I know." ....I was wrong. It was my new friend. The school cancelled all classes and homework that day, and gave us a lot of leeway over the next week or so as we all tried to process what had happened and as we grieved and mourned. That was about the only day I can remember being at that Middle School where I didn't get bullied. I cried my eyes out through the entire day, and the other kids just gave me my space and let me grieve.
I was still crying when I got off the bus to go home, and my dad was there waiting for me when I walked in the front door, and he likely saw me crying and thought I'd been bullied again. When I told him what had happened, he just hugged me and held me until I had no more tears left to shed.
I later found out that he'd been with another friend of his, who was a 10th Grader at the same school, the day before. And his friend found a handgun lying on the ground that later turned out to have been stolen, and in the process of trying to unload the weapon, it discharged and shot my new friend in the head, killing him instantly. I still feel horrible to this day for that 10th Grader as he now has to live with the guilt of knowing his friend is dead because of him.
Rest in Peace, Rourke. We may not have known each other very long, but you helped brighten my life up when I needed it the most.

Unfortunately that's not the only tragedy to happen at my school that year, though the other did not directly involve me. It involved two twin brothers, though I knew them, we didn't really get along so we weren't friends in any way. Then I learn to my horror one day that their father had committed suicide. He'd hung himself, and he did it in such a way that his body would be the first thing the twins saw when they walked in the door. I was absolutely horrified when I learned what had happened, and I wanted to say or do something to try and comfort or console them, but I didn't know what I could say or do that wouldn't just cause me to inadvertently rub salt in the wound.
He was loved by everyone, always happy go lucky, respectful, easily excited by the simplest things. I know its cliche but honestly he was the life of the party. Willinging to do anything just to make someone laugh and brighten their day.
He was murdered 11 days after his HS graduation. He was my cousin and my mom was the one that had to tell his family.
I was alright at the funeral until my sister got up to give a speech, they were in the same class and were as close as siblings. She barely said 3 words before her voice cracked and she started bawling. Still makes me cry just thinking about it
I'm a sophmore and one of my sophmore friends was run over in a hit-and-run yesterday morning. She died about nine hours after she was hit. I saw the accident and I watched her dye in her mom's arms. We had an assembly today about it in school. A few of her friends whom she wasn't very close to talked about how good of a person she was. The school decided to play a montage of some pictures off her social and from the yearbook. I cried the whole time
I don't know you but I know what it feels like to loose someone close to you. Be strong♥️
Before I got to my current high school, a girl who had just graduated passed away from MS. She was an amazing student, Ivy-bound. She was in the top 3% students in the nation. We have a lab named after her. I was never in class with her, but she showed me around at an open house. Sweetest girl.
guy killed himself in my high school. was never told the reason but he was a star athlete and seemed happy in general. he died over spring break.
My buddy Drew was shot in the back by his step dad on Christmas morning. He always had a big smile on his face and got along with literally everyone and he would always say “Get on my level bro” haha…See you down the road Drew✌🏻
a rlly nice science teacher's daughter died on Christmas eve due to a car crash. the teacher was rlly nice, before and after but she would just randomly cry and it was heartbreaking
The first story about the kind school secretary, I hope the students wrote in a journal their best memories of her for the baby to read when he/she is older. So very sad.
At the elementary school in my city, I was in high school and it was Christmas break, 2 little kids died from drowning, worst part was my stepdad was the one that had to pull them out of the water and it made National news
My graduating class was the first in many years to not have someone die during their 4 yrs of high school
Not HS but when I was in 2nd grade, a kid I knew was crushed by a water truck along with his 1st grade brother while they were in the car. We made cards for their mom in class after that. They were buried in the same coffin.
My sophomore year, a girl overdosed at a party over the Thanksgiving break. She was a senior, and very popular and well loved. Unbeknownst to me, an old friend of mine had been dating her, and she kind of fell off the rails after her death. Got into drugs, skipped school, barely graduated. I finally found out about it through a Facebook post 5 years later. The girl accidentally OD’d face down, choked on her own vomit. She got her own page in the yearbook. Just goes to show you, no one wins with drugs, except for your dealer.
Our school actually had a ton of problems with drugs, one kid actually OD’d in class. Shot up in the bathroom, came back, and seized. Thankfully he lived, but was arrested and sent to rehab. And some kid actually had a pound of weed in his locker and the school security found it during a locker inspection. Used dogs and everything. Expelled and arrested. Guess that’s APS for you.
The chaplain disappearing made me real nervous for a second. Never been happier that the answer was cancer.
I got one: Four students were driving on the backroads, hit a tree, all died. I have to drive those same backroads at least once a week. Even for a driver as skilled and experienced as myself, those backroads are very dangerous. My theory is that they served away from a moose.
I went to school with a girl who was shot and killed by a college professor in a parking lot in the downtown area of the town I am living in. She was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The professor was looking to kill someone else. He was not intending to kill this poor girl. This happened a while back I do not know exactly how long.
a few months ago a kid died and 2 were charged with accidental manslaughter or something like that. the 2 kids stole a gun out of someones car near the school, and went to school with the gun. at 3:30 that day after school the 2 kids had a friends over. the 2 kids states playing with the gun and accidentally shot the other kid. he was a senior and captain of the football team. i didn’t know him but he made everyone so happy and it makes me cry. the school raised over $30k in days for his family. that week we also had a gas leak or something and had to stand in freezing weather and then go back into the school because of freezing weather and there were firefighters everywhere.
the one about the guy who raped the special needs girl shattered my heart
In my high school, one person died each year. Freshman year, a boy shot himself. Sophomore year, a boy hung himself. In my junior year, a guy was in a car accident. And my senior year, my friend killed himself. When my sister was in high school, two boys died her senior year. One of them committed suicide in the nearby forest, and the other one was shot at a gas station one night in a case of mistaken identity. Bonus was a guy who one morning was sitting on the back of a pickup truck in the parking lot when the car started moving. He fell off and busted his head open. Paramedics were called, he was screaming this horrible high pitched scream, blood everywhere, started seizing. Ended up in a coma. He survived, returned to school and was expelled for writing the n-word on the bathroom stalls with chalk.
Attended a private all girls boarding school grades 8 through 12. We obviously all knew each other. One of the girls was DB - a truly nice person. We were graduated in May, '75. Independence Day that same year, she was attending a fireworks display with her fiance when a sudden, very serious windstorm blew in from Lake Erie. She and her fiancé ran towards a cement pavilion for shelter but never made it because a huge oak tree was uprooted, crushing them both.
I couldn't attend the wake because I kept melting down.
Such a waste!
Never knew her (happened before we went to high school) apparently she was a very nice person but was bullied. She handed in her maths homework and that night she took her own life. The maths homework - has been on the wall for the 3 years since it happened. R.I.P ❤️
This happened when I was in 11th grade. A very nice counselor who worked at the HS for years was accidentally crushed between her car and another car... when getting groceries from her trunk..the other car rolled back unexpectedly.
A boy who used to go to our school had dropped out of his school, murdered his girlfriend (who also used to go our school) And then shot himself. All the upperclassmen knew them and were really messed up. Unrelated, my best friend tried to commit suicide and not even a week later, i see three emergency vehicles come to my school. It turns out another friend had tried to overdose on her medication. They’re both alive and well, but I’m scared something will set them off and I will lose them.
It's not high school, but in middle school, a guy in my grade got shot by his older brother's drug dealer. He got shot 4 times while he was hanging out with friends. The guy ended up being paralyzed because a bullet hit his spine. He's okay, but the friends he was with that day that witnessed their friend get shot still won't talk about what happened.
ok i have 4 bc my school is that bad
1 - a mutual friend of mine that has been bullied for as long as i can remember became home schooled bc she couldn’t take it anymore. the next year, she was shot and killed in a church shooting. our school had a presentation for her and when we came back to class people were still making fun of her.
2 - multiple players on our football team raped other members of the team with a flashlight and mop (like from 13rw) and half of them went to jail while half of them are now seniors still going to school.
3 - a girl tried to commit suicide from hanging herself in the bathroom but luckily another girl walked in right as the first girl was about to die. she girl who almost died was harassed the next few weeks.
4 - a beloved science teacher with a pregnant wife and a two year old was found sexting a sixth grade girl [happy part - the students made meme pages about it they were super funny lol]
A 14 year old girl commutes suicide 2 years ago. She was a year above me. It was horrible because the school didn’t even do anything even though they were fully aware she was being severely bullied. It was on the regional news quite a few times. Absolutely horrid.
My freshman year a junior died of brain cancer. He had been in and out of remission and hospitals for a good part of his high school career. I never knew him but everyone would always say how he was one of the nicest people you would ever meet.
My sophomore year fairly early into the year we got an announcement while in homeroom that a student (unnamed) had just passed away and that if anyone needed anything to help with grieving they were excused from classes to go to guidance and talk. Word quickly spread as to who she was and what happened. On Saturday night/Sunday morning she had gone to a party and mixed drugs and alcohol. She fell into a coma and died a few days later.
I’ve since graduated but I still have siblings in my old school. My district has 3 high schools in it.
In one of the sister schools to my old one a freshman had taken a bunch of drugs back in Oct 2019 in an attempt to kill himself to avoid joining a gang. His attempt failed and he was in a coma for a while. He has severe brain damage from the incident but if expected to be released on Feb 13 2020. The whole town is hoping all goes well and he can be released.
He got the drugs from someone who had graduated and would hang around the bus stops selling to the high schoolers. Our local PD knew about this but had no solid evidence until now. His trial should be soon and I believe he’s on the stand for selling to minors, possession and because of what happened to the kid some kind of light attempted murder charge. I hope he rots
eighth grade, a kid at my school died of cancer. that was a sad day, rip omar💙
My high school is located in a rather rural area. It's boundary is wide-reaching. It's Washington state, so there's trees everywhere, creating shadow and hiding black ice often. Every year I attended there, not necessarily only in winter, at least two students died in car accidents driving to school in the morning.
2 teachers got shot at the vegas shooting. One in the face and one on the wrist, they were a couple. Around 5 students got ran over by a stupid driver with a bug pick up truck and it ran into the gate. The person that got hurt the worst was the one that didn’t have health insurance, what a shame. A lot of serious things happened, but those 2 are like the main ones
When I was in 10th grade, one of the teachers at my school died unexpectedly during Christmas Break. I didn't personally know her, but everyone she taught said she was such a sweet soul.
This other story didn't happen at my school, but Hungary is a small country and this was a very big tragedy. They were on a skiing trip in Italy, and were already on their way home when they had a terrible crash and almost 20 people died on the bus, and several others were seriously injured. It was such a shock for the whole country, I remember for days it wasn't even clear who made it out alive and who didn't. One of my classmates little brother was on the bus, he thankfully survived, but another classmate's friend didn't. It was devastating. Our school was located fairly close to theirs, and our whole school marched to their school through the city center to pay our respects and light candles. They even shut down the traffic for us. By far the most painful experience I had, even though I wasn't personally involved. Can't imagine, what it might've been like for those, who knew them.
There was a boy in my first period class that went missing for a few weeks. Everyone was scared and wanted him to live, especially me. The police finally found his body, but it was in a chimney. And I was waiting to be picked up when I heard the news officially. I wasn’t super close to him, but he wasn’t bad at all. There were a lot of rumors going around about what could’ve happened before it was confirmed where he was. Someone said that he was killed by his parents, however the death was accidental.
Gosh this is the second time I read about this story in the comments 😧
Its 0140 AM and I'm watching some reddit related videos.
2 weeks into graduation a classmate died in a car crash, i had passed by the crash the night before too. Next morning it was supposed to be “cap and gown” day for seniors. It was supposed to be a happy day. They made a “support group” in the library for kids who needed to grieve and shit like that.
During graduation they still named him, the mom walked the stage for him and picked up his diploma. I dont know what happened to her afterwards, if she moved away or stayed, but from what I know he was the only person she had in her life.
Oh and just recently like a week ago, same high school but ofc im not in it, 15 y/o was gunned down in a drive by a few minutes away from school
On my freshman year in high school, we had a pretty bad one, a girl and her boyfriend had cut school. Both Seniors, it was may and graduation, prom, all of that was just ahead. Every year theirs a senior cut day. On that day the pair skipped class, they went in car with their friends. While driving, their friend who was the driver began speeding, and after being distracted ran his car into a concrete barrier on the freeway. When they crashed both suffered severe injuries including internal bleeding. Shortly after both died, the female at 16 (she was a good student and was graduating) and her boyfriend (17, also a good student). They had died a week before prom. And three weeks from graduation.
One of our teacher's who was also a football coach committed suicide during my senior year of high school. He was one of those teachers that every student loved because of how awesome of a guy he was. He was an amazing person, father, and always looked out for you.
Last year my boyfriends good mate was killed in a car crash with his own brother behind the wheel while coming home from school, ever since that evening there was a vase of flowers replaced every day and a picture of him sat at his desk, which was next to my boyfriends. Along with a memorial at the front of the school. As a death usually is, this was such a shock to the school and the community as we live in a small country town where nothing much ever happens, tragedies like this are extremely rare. I didn't know much about the guy, because he passed away about a week before I came to the school. But my boyfriend described him as the most caring, humble dude he's ever known, and that alone bought me to tears. At the end of last year, we had an assembly, where a memorial was shown for him. My boyfriend honestly teared up and I held his hand through the whole thing. It was so sad. Rest In Peace, Campbell, I never got to know you but I hope you're doing well wherever you are. You are missed dearly.
well, the best teacher we ever had died because of lupus, i’m still really sad about it. and one teacher had a premature baby so they needed money for the surgery and thingy, we did a fundraiser at school. then some days later we found out the baby had died. :(
The summer before my senior year this guy everyone loved was brutally murdered along with his girlfriend. They read his name during graduation.
One of the teachers from the elementary school was shot and killed on her front lawn while her kids escaped.The husband locked himself in the house and killed himself.
Fast forward two months, its back to school. The kids moved in with the grandparents who just so happened to live in the town the teacher teached.
The first year, the youngest (whos in my grade) was questioned left and right about it.
In sixth grade, I couldnt find my little brother in the crowd of our musical. I finished the scene and cried backstage. SHE CAME TO COMFORT ME. this girl is so kind and brave, it fucking drives me nuts
first story reminds me of a tutor we had in high school. she was a fabulous woman. it meant a lot to the family that so many students showed up. fly high mrs whitten :)
one of my closest friends committed suicide in my neighborhood last year. i honestly hadn’t experienced death until that and boy did it hurt.
a teacher at my school died and no one would tell the kids why. she either killed her self bc of family things, or she was in a car crash. had 2 kids and a husband. her name is written on the wall in the school
