    It wasn’t technically a lockdown, but my school was taken outside to the football field for a bomb threat. My parents picked up me and my siblings, but later there was a second threat and the school remained open for some reason. You would think that after 2 bomb threats, they would send everyone home, but apparently they have no regards for anyone’s safety. A school nearby in a different district got bomb threats on the same day and sent everyone home after the second threat. (Thankfully, no bombs hit either school, but the principle is still there.)

      In my junior year, we had 3 bomb threats in a span of 2 weeks. The school put us on lockdown. Not evacuation, lockdown. Now keep in mind lockdowns are useless in a deadly situation, as it’s well known how they operate and I liked to call it the sit in a corner and hope you don’t die drill. Although all 3 were confirmed to be by 3 spectate individuals, only one of them was actually caught.

    Went into soft lockdown last year.
    I’m sitting in the Science lab doing state tests, when the announcement comes over the speakers.
    *”Teachers, please keep students inside your classrooms. We have an incident and are going into a soft lockdown.”*
    Poor kid with anger issues broke down in the middle of testing, couldn’t handle it anymore, ran out of the room, and starting throwing chairs and nearly broke a window on the second floor. I feel bad for him.

    3 incidents in my life, 1 more scary than the other ones:
    - In 2nd grade there was a small cafeteria fire and we were all outside for a few hours
    - In 11th grade someone overly high on pot wandered into the building and put the school on lockdown, this was in 2021 so I happened to be virtual on that day
    - The scary one: My elementary school was right behind a housing development. Some kids right behind the playground climbed onto their shed with guns and started firing at the kids at recess. I was in 3rd grade at the time. Fortunately I was not in that area of the playground at the time, but we all ran inside and the school was placed on lockdown as the police were called. Turns out they were airsoft guns, and the kids had taken off the orange plastic indicating the guns were fake.
    I didn't understand the gravity of the situation until my parents were notified and they were able to gently explain it to me.

      Once upon a time, in a small town nestled behind a peaceful housing development, stood my elementary school. It was an idyllic place for learning, with a vibrant playground right at its back. The schoolyard was usually filled with laughter, the sounds of children playing, and the innocent joy that only young hearts possess.
      However, one fateful day, our tranquil world was shattered. As the sun shone brightly overhead, coloring the playground with its golden hues, a group of mischievous kids from the neighboring houses devised a reckless plan. Unbeknownst to us innocent students, they had climbed onto their shed, armed with what appeared to be guns.
      The carefree atmosphere of recess was abruptly disrupted when the first shots echoed through the air. Panic erupted among the children as we tried to comprehend the unimaginable. The kids behind the shed were firing their weapons directly at us, targeting the unsuspecting students with their malicious intentions. I, a mere third-grader at the time, was fortunate enough to have been playing in a different area of the playground, blissfully unaware of the danger that lurked nearby.
      Screams filled the air, mingling with the chaos that ensued. Instinctively, we all ran towards the safety of the school building, seeking refuge from the terrifying situation. Fear gripped our hearts as we hurried inside, the heavy wooden doors swinging shut behind us like a protective barrier.
      Inside the school, a sense of urgency permeated the atmosphere as teachers and staff members quickly sprang into action. The alarm was raised, and the entire building was placed on lockdown. Teachers calmly guided their students to designated safe areas, comforting us with their reassuring words and gentle touch.
      Meanwhile, the authorities were alerted, and the local police force swiftly responded to the distress call. Sirens blared in the distance, growing louder with each passing moment, as a fleet of patrol cars raced towards our school. The police officers, trained to handle such emergencies, arrived prepared to confront the potential threat that loomed just beyond the school's walls.
      As the police cautiously approached the shed, they discovered a startling truth. The weapons the children had wielded were not real guns but airsoft guns, designed to shoot harmless plastic pellets. However, the gravity of the situation was not diminished by this revelation. The kids, in their misguided attempt at mischief, had removed the orange plastic tips that indicated the guns were toys.
      The authorities swiftly resolved the situation, ensuring the safety of all the students and staff. The children responsible for the incident were reprimanded and educated about the serious consequences of their actions. It was a valuable lesson learned, one that would forever remind them of the importance of responsible behavior and the potential dangers of their reckless choices.
      In the aftermath of that harrowing day, our school community grew stronger. Parents, teachers, and students came together to heal the wounds inflicted by fear and uncertainty. Safety measures were reinforced, and counseling services were made available to help us process the trauma we had experienced.
      Time passed, and the scars of that incident slowly faded. Our playground regained its cheerful ambiance, and the laughter of children once again filled the air. But the memory of that day remained etched in our collective consciousness, a reminder of the fragility of innocence and the importance of vigilance.
      And so, life moved on, as it always does. We grew older, wiser, and carried the lessons learned from that day with us. Our elementary school continued to be a place of learning, laughter, and resilience, forever bound by the shared experience that had shaped us all.

    Lmao this story kinda went big in Oregon. I was in a lockdown at my middle school. I was in language arts at the time and we had just finished a class quiz. we were getting close to wrapping up class. That's when an announcement came over the loudspeaker saying “Lockdown. Lock, lights, out of sight,” which is the language used to indicate an active threat inside the school building. Now under normal circumstances, I wouldn't have been scared, as it was probably just a drill, but the look on the teacher's face said otherwise. We were instructed to get under our desks, something which we aren't normally told to do. an immediate red flag.
    As I was hiding under my teacher's desk in the corner that was most difficult to see from the door, I asked my teacher what was going on. Both he and the education assistant had no idea and seemed pretty shocked. Another red flag. The fear I felt in that moment was like no other fear I have ever experienced. It was around that time that I started to hear doors slamming all around the school. It seemed really weird to me as we were in a state of lockdown. Normally we are not supposed to open the door, much less slam it. This led me to believe there was a person going from classroom to classroom, making threats and/or harming people.
    That's when I texted my mom to let her know what was happening, and that I might not be coming home that day. I even went as far as to send her my last words. I had to endure what felt like another 30 minutes of the lockdown. Throughout the remainder of the event students kept talking and laughing, which gave me a lot of anxiety as I feared we would be caught by the mystery threat. Finally after what felt like a very long time, a school official unlocked and opened the door to let us know that the lockdown was over. They did not give us any information on the severity of the threat or what the threat was. Shortly after that my dad pulled me out of school. And I did not return to school again that day.
    PPS never actually ended up telling us what happened. We still haven’t gotten any information from them. Then me and my father decided to get a bill passed that says they legally have to tell people what the reason for a lockdown is. It passed unanimously. Turns out they ended up telling us that some high schoolers had been running through the halls and had been let in by other students. This was not the reason for the lockdown, as much as PPS would like us to believe. The real reason was that the new science teacher had let a grown man into the school Becuase he’s the new guy and isn’t familiar with common sense. The man had been looking for a student, and was appearantly armed. The science teacher then told the man he was going to call the school security guard, and the man fled the scene. They then put the building into lockdown and did a full sweep. All of this I later learned from a public records request that took them an obscene amount of time to fulfill. I’m now traumatized from the incedent. Needless to say the amount of bad press PPS received after the event was enough to get them to communicate like songbirds even in the event of a medical emergency.

    2 years ago, my school had a lockdown. The students didn't know at first, but the teachers were notified via email. When it was time to go to the next class, the teachers told us to stay in the class, as there might be an intruder in the building. I was in a cooking class with my friends, so we sat behind the counters away from the door. My friends joked about the fact that we might have been in the best defense classroom, as we literally had knives. In the end, there never was an intruder. Someone accidentally tried opening a door with an emergency badge, instead of a normal one.
    What did we learn from this?
    - Don't be an idiot
    - My friends are scary
    - We should do this more often so I can skip my classes

    In first of kindergarten, we had to evacuate the school. We were learning grammar and suddenly we get the announcement for a code red. About 5 minutes later we have to evacuate to the middle school no more than a block down the road. I remember being beyond terrified and wanting to sprint to the high school and hid my brother. About a week or so later we found out that there was this guy who claimed that he had bombs in his car and would bomb the school. His car was in the library parking lot, which was across the street from the school. Turns out that the guy wasn’t in his right mind and it was all fake.

We were given 0 information about what happened until 5th period when we went to gym, on our way past the window to the front of the school we all noticed an animal control van and outside 2 animal control agents with a Pug….we were in lockdown for 2 hours terrified because a Pug got into the school

    This was a medical emergency and I almost fainted it scared me so bad: One day in my favorite teachers class I was sitting in the back by a window during silent work time. Suddenly it gets really loud and it takes a minute before any of us can comprehend that the school lockdown alarm was going off. My friend runs in from the bathroom still pulling up her pants. As none of us know what was going on, I panicked because I was next to an open window that someone could see me out of and was frozen in fear. The next day I learned my best friend and crush had died.

The next was a few months later, and someone called and threatend mg school, not sure if it was a bomb threat or shooting threat, but we went into lockdown for about 40 minutes.

      2 lock downs my highschool had was 1 involving a kid passing out after donating blood at the blood drive, they had been cleared to return to class but passed out in a hallway.
      2nd was actually a drill but no one but the upper management of the school and the police knew, think the reasoning was to test it as if it were real. Unfortunately a teacher had to escort a student to the nurse for something taking them across the school when it happened. Unfortunately for one of the cops we had just been taught to try and fight back and not coward in the corner if needed. Well one of the football players had a desk ready as the door would only lock with the teacher's keys and so when the door was opened the cop got hit with the desk. Needless to say that type of test didn't happen again.

    I had 2 incidents.
    In middle school, we received news of a bomb threat & most of the students didn't show up to school that day. A few students were there, but only because their parents thought they were making it up to skip school or simply forced them to go. Nothing happened & they found the student who made the threat.
    The other incident happened a few weeks before I graduated. There was a small fire in the school cafeteria & we had to evacuate. The scariest part was how the teachers & staff reacted. They blocked fire exits & forced students to stay inside while the other teachers left. I managed to sneak out & got to drive home. I learned the next day that the school was being sued for how bad they handled the situation. Apparently, there were videos of the teachers pushing students away from the fire exits & evidence of a teacher shoving a student that caused him to hit his head on a desk. He was taken to the hospital & he had a concussion as a result from the fall.

    This happened when I was in third or second grade. I remember the entire class having to go to the cafeteria closet thing and being told to keep quiet. I wasn’t entirely scared until I raised my hand (like a dumbass) and a teacher was silently saying no. After that I went into panic mode. I really had no idea what was going on and everyone was acting as if something scary was happening. After about 35 minutes we went into the actual cafeteria itself. I could’ve sworn I saw two police officers outside looking in the shed that was outside the building. Later we were told that the area was all clear and we were able to go back to class like normal. I was talking with this girl that I will call Gwen. (not her real name) I brought up the incident and she mentioned that she saw somebody outside with a big gun. They were probably the officers I saw. I didn’t find out exactly what happened until 2 days later, my mom explained to me that there was a guy that the police were chasing down in the area. They told the school that he was dangerous, probably armed, but he never actually came in or even approached the school. The school just locked down the entire place to keep us safe, and I completely understand why. That’s probably the only time I ever had an actual lockdown.
    Well I’m not sure if this counts, but this one time when I was in 7th grade, and the school was still trying to figure the bell system. They accidentally hit a button that triggered an alarm that said that there was an intruder in the school. I remembered that I was so scared and texting my mom I love her. She called the school and they said it was a false alarm. I remember being so relieved. Those are the only times I ever had real lockdowns.

    This one happened 2 years ago, it was the last day of school, and we were just about to get out when we were informed that there was a criminal outside. Everyone was being loud for some reason while throwing their hoodies around. Me and my friends were scared, and were crying, and then we were taping thumbtacks to our rulers and meter sticks, there were kids blocking our doors with chairs, and I was making weapons as well to protect ourselves, kids were holding chairs, letting people borrow their phones so they could call their parents/loved ones, it was chaos, while the teacher was trying to calm us down, it went to stage 3 lockdown, and it was dark, the athletic kids volunteered to be by the door with some of the weapons we made without the teacher knowing. Everyone else was hiding under tables behind shelves, and we were all prepared man, we thought we were in a movie or something, the lights were off, cops were in the building running around, armed, and the lights came back on, and the school was dismissing bus riders, car riders, and walkers. We all had to walk in a line behind the vice principal and a police officer, just in case, and we got home safely. Turns out, two fourth grade girls came up with the plan to scare everyone on the last day. And last year, those same girls tried to do it again, but they admitted that it was fake. Our school is smart though, and doesn’t do lockdown drills in case a student is the shooter

    I remember 2 stories of a lockdown, however, the first one wasn't really a lockdown, however, it was very similar to one.
    This first one happened to my friend. In his Food Technology class, one of the knives went missing. They had to get the Headteacher to come into the class and check everyone's bags, pockets, everything. He never told me what happened however seeing as no one else heard anything about it, nothing most likely happened.
    The second one happened only a week or two after the first one. A few days before, we had a fire drill but no one thought much of it, other than how everyone got to miss a few minutes of a lesson. However, a few days later, the same thing happened. The alarm went off but the strange thing was, this was a few minutes before lunch, while it was also raining, and we would never normally have a drill at this time. Also, the teacher told us to take all of our bags which never normally happens. As soon as we left the classroom, I saw a flash of red but I just thought it was my eyes being weird. Then there was another one which turned out to be a siren and there was also a voice over the speaker system saying "LEAVE THE BUILDING" on repeat. We never found out what the emergency was.

    This happened in March 2018 when I was a sophomore in high school. I was in my health class which went normally, until the lockdown alarm started sounding over the loudspeaker, signalling that the school was in lockdown. This lasted for maybe more than 30 minutes. The more it lasted, the more the inside of my body panicked, thinking about what the frick was going on. I learned later that day that there was a person threatening to shoot people in my school with a gun on social media. Thankfully, the threatener was arrested.

    Once at my school, I forgot what hour it was but our school went into a soft lockdown. None of the teachers said it was a drill and it was not. But it turns out that there was no shooter, just a crazy trucker threating schools.

    It wasn’t a drill or an actual lockdown. It was “Oh one of the administrators or something accidentally summoned a school lockdown.” Worst feeling ever, hiding under the back counter, no chair to hide behind, wondering if this was our last breaths, just to have someone get on the speakerphone and go “false alarm haha” 😭

    2 stories:
    1) Middle school, end of my 6th grade year. We were in period 6, when all of a sudden the principle comes on the PA to announce a full lockdown. It was about 3:30 PM-ish, we weren't released until about 5-6pm. I learned after the lockdown, that there was a 40 mile police chase, that had eventually gone into the neighborhood next door (which some of my friends live in) and started to run towards the school. Deputies tazed him and we were escorted to the gym by armed SWAT.
    2) High school, end of my 10th grade year. With only like a week or 2 left in the year, during about 3rd period, everything was normal until the district-wide (every school in the district uses the same set of audios for Lockdowns and Evacs) evacuation order come on over the PA system. We were all ordered to make our way to the football field (on the opposite of the campus for me), and we sat out there for about an hour and half while the ATF, FBI, FHP, local PD and SO, and SWAT units searched the campus. Apparently, someone called the admin offices for 3 schools in my district and said there was a bomb at each. This was March, in Florida, near the coast... it was hot as all hell. Went home early after that one and just chilled for the rest of the day.
    3) Apparently, earlier that same year, while I was at home "sick", the entire school was evacuated due to a gas leak in a chemistry lab. HAZMAT cleared everything, no real danger, just a precaution.

    During my time at the high school: Someone had called in a bomb threat. Most students didn't know what to do because we never had any drills. The signal was a intermittent fire alarm: it would blare for two seconds, then silence for one or two seconds, repeat. My class thought it was a malfunction and chose to ignore it until someone came and told use to leave the building. The worst part is knowing the difference in procedure, and knowing this wasn't a malfunction of the alarm system. With fire drills, you leave your stuff behind and close the doors as you leave: get out quick, contain any fire or smoke. With bomb threats you take your stuff with you and leave the doors open: presumably you won't be taking the bomb with you, anything left behind could be the bomb, and they have to check each room.
    Fire in the boy's bathroom: the trash can. It was raining heavily that day, and not being able to get our coats from our lockers, we were soaked! Fortunately, I had a relative in town I could go to to get dried off. (I lived a one-hour school bus ride away.)
    Several years after my time: A teacher spotted a group of kids walking across the parking lot, into the school, carrying "guns." Turned out to be the drill team with their "rifles": wooden sticks cut into a crude outline of a rifle, used in a way similar to kids with wooden "swords". These "guns" have been in use since long before I ever came anywhere near the school.

    I remember one time when I was I was in high school, someone robbed one of the banks that was a few blocks away from the school. We were supposed to go on lockdown, but instead for some reason, they evacuated the school to the soccer fields out back. We were all standing outside in the open for over an hour in very close proximity to an armed robbery and police chase because the staff mixed up which emergency plan they were supposed to do. We all thought it was ridiculous and pointed it out to the teachers, but they didn't listen.

    I remember when just I came to school, meaning I was at the entrance, the person at the front desk sent me and a few other kids to the auditorium, I was confused but went anyways, assuming it was an assembly or event because I was a freshman at the time. Turns out their was suspicion an active shooter was in the building, and they sent us their to crowd in one area.
    I’m not sure if it was a false alarm or not (it was a year ago) they checked the building and that’s all I really know, they sent us straight to class after while I was visibly shaking, didn’t even let us out early just incase the threat was still active.
    My parents let me out early, and their was a ton of security for a-few days before they got rid of it. Wish the school system had better ways of executing these situations.

    I can relate I was in 5th grade it was the last day of school. We were in the middle of celebrating elementary school graduation when are teachers told us to go to the classrooms fast. No one knew what was going on. But later in the day we were able to party again and we found out someone had threatened our school district. No one knew what school they were talking about so everyone went on lock down. Another time I was in 6th grade. Someone had posted a picture of a gun and they were saying they were gonna shoot our school. People were able to solve the case before school started but only 1/4 of my class showed up. We were able to sit wherever in class and luckily all my friends went that day. Who knows maybe this year in 7th grade they will threaten our school again.

When we did our teachers immediately told us to huddle into a designated corner away from the door and window. It terrified me when I heard my teacher say "you guys this is not a drill" and a lot of male cadets in my class weren't taking it seriously and making jokes.

    once on a friday sometime in 7th grade, I had heard from one of my classmates that someone wrote in green sharpie "I have a gun" in one of the bathroom stalls. this was at the start of math class that day. about 70 minutes later, we had went into a shelter in place (stuck in the classroom but free to so normal(ish) classroom things) for about 30-45 minutes. Lunch was after this, and tons of kids had mentioned that police had came (math class was in the middle of the school so I had no idea) and the security guard had checked AND investigated some of the kids who had been in the bathroom before this, not much happened until the school-wide assembly at the end of the day, everyone In the building was directed to the gym, with the principal particularly way more mad than I have ever seen him. Who knows who wrote that it was never announced but I have NEVER encountered this, I was starting to get scared around the assembly as this could have been the time where the threat could have been bad as I said, EVERYONE was in the gymnasium, and the gun could have been pulled but thankfully everyone's safe and nothing bad happened.

    this isn't really a lockdown, but I was in a school in the mountains when all of the sudden the teachers were rushing their students into the hallways for a severe weather procedure. it turns out, even though the school was up in the mountains, there was a tornado warning right around where the school was. some people were crying, being scared for themselves and their family members. some kids were also worried about their internet. the best thing about this though is that the tornado didn't seem to come near the school, even though there were high winds rattling the doors like crazy. this was the scariest moment in my life.

    BIG TRIGGER WARNING!!
    Earlier this year, there was a shooting in the same street as my school. obviously they couldn’t let us go, even though last period had ended and they locked us all in the cafeteria. Teachers ended up escorting the people who went with public transport home, and assured that everyone else got a ride home as well. Even the people who cycled (including me and my friend.) It was very confusing as the story was really unclear and we had to figure out what was going on ourselves.
    In case you’re wondering:
    Turns out a guy broke into his neighbor’s house, shot the mom and daughter, then bombed the place before riding (past our school) to the hospital a few blocks away, where he shot a teacher in the education district before also lighting that on fire. The whole half of the hospital got evacuated. Yep, that was certainly an experience I hope to never have again.

    There were actually one time in High School that we had a lockdown that was not a drill. I had actually left the school before it happened with my father and two of my classmates, and actually got to witness what went down that caused my school to get locked down. Some person who was running from behind us had stolen an unknown object (many in my school claimed it was a video game console). And two cops were chasing him during his short sprint, he then fell to the ground at the corner of the block that my school was located and the cops drew their guns on him just as we were crossing the street. After that we started to receive texts from my classmates that the school had been put on lockdown right in the middle of dismissal, and when the school buses come to pick up students. Luckily I was out of school when it happened but still it was crazy to think that it happened right when we were being dismissed from school.

    Not a lockdown, but an evaciation preparation (the getting out of the classrooms to prepare to leave) happened recently. Some of the youngest people in the school decided it was a good idea to start a fire. On a 35°c day. On a hill (Our whole town is completely covered in hills) with our school ontop of that hill. Don't know if you know, but a hot day, mixed with the recent dry spout in our area, mixed with the fact that fires spread fast uphill, you would expect any of the building to get burnt, but none of them did. FF got there quickly. The burned area isn't massive, about the size of 1 and a half houses at the most, but it's noticeable.

    Had three earthquakes in 6 years of highschool (had to repeat last year due to covid). Everytime it was chaos, but I just didn't care about it and took it chill. This one time specifically it was third period, I think it was earthquake #2, I still had my leather jacket on (because no prof tells Speedy when to take off his jacket) and my backpack packed (vocational school, a wonderful place. But there weren't any books inside anyway, the backpack was just STACKED with food and drinks). Suddenly the entire building just went "WROOOOM", it shook like a 110 y.o. with parkinson, and it wasn't a slow thing, like "EVERYBODY GET UNDER THE DESKS AND DON'T MOVE", it was like if the building just got slapped by Shaq. So, the earthquake stops, the prof says "everobody get out! Rally in the courtyard!" and since I was the guy closest to the door I grab my backpack and open the line. As soon as we get out in the yard I find myself a nice cozy spot on one of the walls that surrounds the yard, lght a cig and pull a sandwich out of my backpack. While everyone else is freaked out making a mess and I'm enjoying my ciggy and sandwich the vice principal walks to me pissed. Mind you he wasn't pissed because I was smoking on the school property, he was pissed because I had my jacket on, my backpack along and was not giving a crap about it. He walked on me and said
    "Sp•••cà"
    "Mh?"
    "There's been an earthquake, and you're JUST EATING A SANDWICH?"
    "You want a bite?"
    "..."
    "What?"
    "Why didn't you leave your jacket behind?"
    "I was still wearing it"
    "In third period?"
    "Mind your damn business about what I wear prof"
    "And you took your backpack too"
    "Hey it was still packed up on the floor, didn't take me nothing to grab it"
    "Mh."
    "What, you want me to start yelling and jumping around?"
    "No no"
    "Alright"
    That's the exact moment me and the vice principal's attrition relationship began. He'd always find something to scold me for (at best) and I'd always argue my way out of it. One year he took me in front of the principal on the accusation of doing the fascist salute (I'm italian, people here don't have the same approach to the little oopsie of the 40s as they do in Germany) and managed to get me suspended (altho I also spent two hours arguing and bickering with the principal as well). In all response I called some friends from third year and on my return the first thing we did was singing Faccetta Nera in front of the teachers lounge

    I had two incidents both in middle school:
    The first was a shelter in place, for those who don't know a shelter in place is where teachers lock their doors but still teach class. The principal announced we were going in shelter in place, my math teacher locked the door and told us to finish our assignment. We all assumed that it was a drill so no one panicked, it wasn't until later that we learned an unstable person had escaped a facility and was near the school. He was eventually taken back to the facility from where he escaped.
    The second one was a couple of months later during May, apparently someone had sent a threat saying they were going to shoot up the school, we had a lockdown and police came rather quickly. Luckily it was a misunderstanding and the person responsible was an old lady, she was more trying to alert people rather than threaten. I don't if it's true but according to the popular kids my friends at the time told me that a news station even showed up when the police did. I remember a lot of us were terrified and some girls looked like they were going to cry, and it felt like I was the only person who didn't care at all on both incidents

    Last year my school was under a bomb threat and it was scary. We started out with the usual “hide until we have more info “ until about 15 minutes we were all ran to the public library which was close and we had to sit there for 2 hours with no information until I was allowed to go home with my brother because he is older than me. Turns out a man had escaped an insane asylum and went on a spree of drug induced robberies/ bomb threats. He threatened 3 other schools

    A Drunk Man Grabbed Through The Gate, Got A Year 2 (Grade 1) Child By The Collar And Repeatedly Slammed His Head Against The Gate With Half The School Watching While He Made Super Creepy Remarks. I Was Part Of The Half Inside Doing Classes At The Time, But Apparently The Kid Nearly Died And His Close Friends Who Were In Front Of Him Watching Had Heavy Trauma From The Event.

    In 10th grade, my mom dropped me off, and right as I walked in to the school, i walked in in the middle of an announcememt. I only heard something about school being cancelled, and didnt know why, so I had to tell my mom to come back and get me. Turns out someone sent a bomb threat, and as far as I know, got away with it.

    Thursday February 2nd, 2024; we were taking our Semester 1 finals (This was a Thursday, and we only had Periods 2, 4, and 6, the previous day was Periods 1, 3, and 5.), During 2nd Period, we had a lockdown that lasted about 10 minutes. I though nothing of it UNTIL Lunch, when I learned that 4 girls got into a fight in the restroom, and Girl 1 STABBED Girl 3 in the chest! Thankfully, the victim did not recieve any Life Threatening injuries, but it DID permanently effect the school's collective sanity! Yay... I'm a Junior in High School btw. 3 of the 4 girls were Freshman, and the Stabber was a Senior.

    I did once in kindergarten, I was the one who caused it. I snuck out on a "bathroom break" with my friends to the garden (small school, big garden) and we just stayed there, hiding from anyone who came to find us. Eventually the school went on lockdown and we had to go out and say that we werent kidnapped.

    I don't remember what year it was (probably like 2012-13 ish), but in 5th grade someone pulled the fire alarm as a prank after someone joked about a bomb. A few minutes later after everyone was back inside, they evacuated us again for a pipe bomb threat that was called in while we were outside for the fire alarm. Had to walk about 5 blocks to another school where we sat in their gym for hours waiting for the police to figure out what was going on.
    Also had a dude shoot up a grocery store across the street from my high school on the first day of my freshman year while everyone was out on the football field doing team building. Good times.

Shits wild

    I actually have a story, so I was in my freshman year and it was the final period of the day when a code red was set into place, at first we hid behind the large counters that were in the room, but about 10 minutes in we moved to the closet. There were many items that people grabbed, I for one grabbed a giant metal pipe and one of my friends got permission to break a jar and use a glass shard. We stayed in that closet for more than an hour before the swat team that had arrived at the school had given us directions, they told us from ground level up to our 3rd floor, to wait as they cleared the building, and once the area was cleared we were escorted to the football field. We waited there for about an hour before they dismissed us saying nothing happened. Apparently some idiot kid thought it would be funny to call saying somebody had been shot in the bathroom, and we weren't the only district it happened to I know more than 20 districts ended up having a code red. That day I had forgot my phone and I've regretted that ever since. Anyways that's my story

    So, I have really bad ADHD. In high school I was literally allowed to walk around the premises for a maximum 25 minutes per class. Keep in mind this is in Canada under Justin Trudeau, so school shootings aren’t really a thing people worry about up here. Anyway, one really cold November afternoon I’m out jogging on the football field and I get a text from my best friend saying I should come inside so I go to the door that I had used to get outside. This door is usually open most of the time so I’m surprised when I discover it’s locked. I text my best friend telling her that I can’t get inside. She doesn’t respond. I try some of the other entrances but they’re all locked, even the front entrance. I try texting some of my other friends but they don’t respond either. Eventually I resort to banging on the front entrance hoping someone will hear me and let me in. At this point I still have no clue what’s going on and I’m starting to freak out a little. Suddenly, a police cruiser pulls up in front of the school and two officers get out. I approach them, hoping they’ll help me. But they immediately draw their weapons and tell me to get on my knees. I do so and they ask me what I’m doing. (Note: I’m wearing an oversized red hoodie and ripped jeans with a small chain visible that’s attached to my wallet, so I don’t exactly look like the kinda guy who should be hanging around a school trying a bunch of doors.) I tell them that I’m a student here, I’ve been outside and my teachers know this and I can’t get back in and no one inside is responding to my text messages. The cops put their guns away and tell me that my school is currently on lock down due to someone getting inside and they’ve also received reports of a second individual banging on the doors. I tell them that I’ve been banging on the doors trying to get back inside, but I don’t know anything about this second individual. After that the police contact the administrator to let them in and the go in and end up arresting someone. It turns out it was just some homeless guy who snuck into the school to just to escape the cold. My I met up with my friends and it turns out that they weren’t responding to my texts because they were under full lockdown and they’d put their phones on silent. I have a few other stories from my school years about big incidents like this, but this one was the most relevant.

  • @johnplaysgame

    Had 2 (kind of 3?) incidents so far, both times I was absent
    In 2nd grade, the whole school had to evacuate because of a bomb threat. One of the middle schools in my town were also threatened, though it is not the one that I ended up going to, as the closest school to you is the school that you go to.
    In 6th grade, a similar thing happened, where a bomb threat also happened, and I was absent, and the kids were evacuated.
    Not really an "incident" per se, because they discovered some gas leak or something before school in 5th grade, so we all had to wait outside the school for roughly 15 or so minutes.

    We had one back in March the moment we stepped into school. We just stood on an area with fake grass for 2 hours while the fire bell went off and when the headteacher told everyone it was a bomb threat a lot of people had a meltdown after sitting down chatting normally for hours. It happened to a neighbouring school as well and it was just some idiot threatening the school with bombs that probably wouldn't even come anyway.
    Another small one that happened fairly recently was an expelled kid who just so happened to bully me a few years ago broke into the school and made the classes go on lockdown. He was actually pretty chill and he also had a glue stick, which was apparently super dangerous due to my languages teacher saying 'well you never know what damage he can do with a glue stick.'
    He broke in again recently and all I saw was some teachers running around trying to catch him. I don't know why he keeps doing it.

    This didn't happen at my school but it happened to the High School next to my Middle School. on Thursday September 28th someone had called the High School and said they had a Gun on Campus (Pretty much threatening to shoot up the school) and so the High School went on Lock Down. Since no one knew if this was true or a threat our Principle came on the PA System and said that anyone that walks by the High School after School has to go a different route or get picked up by there Parents (This happened near the end of the day BTW) Around 4:00 I got on my bus but since we usally pass the High School to start dropping kids off at there Stops, The Bus Driver had to take a Different Route and that meant if your stop was one of the Last stops then it's now the First Stops and the First Stops are now the Last Stops (My stop is 3rd to last so I got off on the 3rd Stop) whenever I got home The Lockdown was over and My mom told me that the Same Person called from the Same Number and said the same Threat to another High School (That's how they knew it was a Threat and there was no Active Shooter) This really freaked me out because I was convinced there was a Shooter at the High School, But then I thought that we proablay would have heard Gun Shots and a Alarm from the High School if it was an Active Shooter since the High School was pretty close to my Middle School, But still it was pretty scary.

    I was walking to my third period class in like 6-7th grade. I was late to school because I had a doctors appointment, and I walked pass the kid, figuring he was going to the bathroom. I said hi to him and continued walking. That was 30 minutes before he decided to try and shoot up the school and k*ll himself. When I walked past him he had the gun on him. Never knew the kid either, he seemed nice. Still wonder why he did it to this day.

    High-school year 10th grade, there was a gas leak, and they thought it was in the school, so they had everyone evacuate the school. Turns out it was a gas leak in a house that was right next to the school. I was in choir at the time, and we evacuated right next to the house.

    2 things:
    1. During the orientation day for 3rd grade, a smoke detector in the maintenance room was triggered and the fire alarms went off.
    2. In middle school, someone brought a gun, went into the bathroom, posted a picture on social media, someone snitched, and we had lockdown go in effect (no one was injured in either situation)

    This happened a few months and every senior, especially myself, can say that this is a defining memory from high school for us. So it's senior year of high school and as a tradition we do a game called senior assassins. For those of you who don't know basically you're supposed to shoot another person with a water gun and essentially eliminate everyone in the game, and everyone in my class was intensely focused on eliminating their targets. It's Monday afternoon and the game has been going on for a week. I'm out on the tennis courts with my team when all of a sudden someone is yelling for all of us to get off the field, leave all of our stuff, and get inside. I remember overhearing that someone had a gun on the campus of the school next to us and fled the scene (this rumor would later be debunked but I'll get to that soon). We are led down to the workout room and then a lockdown is called. We're in there for about 15 minutes, and in that time I'll admit I was a little worried that my life could end, but eventually the principal announces over the intercom that the lockdown is over but that the only people who can leave campus are those who have cars on campus, which meant myself. My friends and I step outside and we see 12 police cars. That night senior assassins is called off. The next morning there's a whole assembly about it, and through my friends I learn that the person who had me as a target was on campus scouting me out and the water gun he used not only looked like a real gun, but he had it in the back of his pants, and there was a lacrosse game happening on the field next to the courts and a parent from the other school though that it was a real gun and freaked out, and then the student fled because he thought that someone else had a gun. In every class that day the teachers talked about the incident to make sure we were alright for our mental health or some bullshit along those lines.
    In the end, the kid who had the real looking gun had to appear in court over the incident. The news spread pretty quickly to the other schools and even to the news, but what they were told were basically various twisted versions of the incident. My prom date said that they had a whole assembly at her school and that they told a very different story from what actually happened. My school also tried to deny that they knew about senior assassins, but we literally had a meeting about it and the teachers were there to tell us, and our all school president used it as a way to criticize the school at our last all school assembly (that's a story for another day).
    Long story short I indirectly caused a lockdown at my school which ultimately became a major scandal. And btw it was not my fault.

    I mean, my friend wrote a story about a school shooter and forgot it in a desk. The History teacher found it and reported it. After my lunch period, a teacher yelled for everyone to get in a classroom, didn’t matter which. I thought it would just be 30 minutes, but no, it was an hour. We also were called out in the little makeshift groups we were gathered in to have our bags searched by cops. This was the 3rd week of school, and the 1st year of the school’s operation.

    Yes, but it turned out that it was a false alarm because the “bomb” was actually a prop from the theater that somehow wound up in the closet of a teacher who had nothing to do with it. 😮😂
    And I was friends with the two kids who had made it and eventually were sought out to ID it.
