    There was this one guy who stole cars, drank, had his own clique and was kind of an anti-hero among us smaller kids. He didn’t care what the teachers said, even the principal couldn’t do anything. They all skated, had bikes, hung out at the local halfpipe. They smoked cigarettes on the school property behind the trash containers. They were prohibited from entering any type of festive the school hosted but always ended up being there and drunk. He sold cigarettes to minors, while being a minor himself. Gosh we had so many papers talking about lost cars, stolen cars, wrecked cars etc.

    When he finished school and immediately got a job you didn’t hear anything from him anymore. Now he has a wife, kids and a house.

    He literally was that one rebellious kid from the movies who got his shit together.

    All that happened before 2007, and now I feel old. Thank you.

    Student brought Madonna’s Sex book to school. Made it on one of the evening tabloid shows. Tossed small rodents into the open windows of passing cars. Sodomized baseball players with broom handle. Checked girls underwear on the way into prom to make sure they weren’t wearing thongs. Blink 182

    Only two of those are on Wikipedia.

        I know right? Kids don’t need any reason to carve penises onto desks and tables and walls. They just do.

    One of the older toilets used in a couple of the old school buildings (demolished for a newer one after I graduated) was permanently closed because it became so full of shit.

    It was a toilet on a separate building, that was used for a couple of old buildings (one from the 1930’s if the local oral history is to be believed), and another one from the 1970’s. The stench was so unberable that the classrooms near it were also abandoned.

    Oh, the school wasn’t infamous for that. I think, pushing shit aside, it’s so wonderfully mediocre that it didn’t really have anything it was famous or infamous for.

    Many of the classrooms were old Army barracks buildings. The people of the county were notoriously cheap and wouldn’t ever pay for a new school until it literally started dropping chunks of plaster and cement in the classrooms. Yet, the basketball court was one of the best around.
