We had a bomb threat against our school. We were never evacuated, never told about it or anything. the administration decided to call the police and three hours later they decided to ignore it, just because the thing said it was supposed to blow at night.
If someone is unstable enough to bomb a school, why would you trust them when they say it would be at night? This freaked me out.
Another time... this isn't really messed up, but moving.
A girl I knew died of cancer. We have a small school... about 800 people. the 2 days following we didn't do anything, we just wandered around campus, took off, did whatever. Me and a buddy with our arrt teacher put up a memorial on the front lawn... these 17 white flags strung between two trees. At around 10 that morning, almost all of the school... probably close to 750 people were out there, just silent, for over an hour. It was amazing how many people respected this one girl because of her life, or her fight through cancer, or however else she may have touched them.
