All you do is post random stories that happen at school. You don't even have to be in school anymore, but may I point out that work doesn't count. College, homeschool, and any kind of specialized school counts as well.

Here's my story.

My science teacher is an avid frog enthusiast. She's put frogs up EVERYWHERE in her classroom. There's frog patterned curtains, frog plushies, pictures of frogs, and she puts frog stickers on our graded work. She even has all the seventh graders dissect frogs around this time of year, and it's really not that bad if you're wondering.
 
Okay, I have a few war stories from the classroom/lecture hall:

This morning, the campus buses broke down, which screwed up my plans to get breakfast at the coffee house and put the finishing touches on a presentation.

On top of that, the lid on my hot chocolate slipped off, which splattered it all over the counter. Cleaning up the mess made me 20 minutes late to class.

But the presentation went all right, thankfully.
 
This seems like fun!

Well, my thrid grade teacher loved fossils, natures and animals, so her room had fossils, plants, and skeletans everywhere (She even had this one skeleten of a crab like thing that looked like it had an armadillo shell) and at the end of the year, she gave all of us a shark tooth, an arrowhead, a piece of limestone, a small shard of amythist, and a fossil of a clam. Here was what she told us:

"Things like candy and cookies are fun at the moment, but they don't last. These, on the other hand, are great keepsakes to have for eternity."

To this day, she takes the spot as my favorite teacher (and I still have her gifts)
 
hax0r pwned

In the very first lab for the course, my IT Security course prof did a lab demonstration of a technique to intercept a target computer's network communication, which allowed him to rebuild in real time the web sites one of the students was browsing. He put up a display of that on the lab projector, for all to see. Most of us were quite amazed and shocked, because in theory, the campus had the networking hardware in place to prevent this kind of thing, but apparently not. ;)

The 'hacked' student had the last laugh, though. He threatened to and was about to navigate to a "2 girls 1 cup" video. (It's an extremely disgusting video of two girls playing with feces. I haven't actually seen it, and I would advise that you guys do the same. lol) The prof panicked and ran to shut off his hacks. :p
 
^lol



I hardly remember this....

I was in middle school, I believe, and my science teacher [I forgot what kind, maybe Biology] had kind of an anger problem. He never hit anyone, as far as I know. When people wouldn't shut up, though, he did this odd "thing" where he would start yelling, say a curse word, sarcastically apologize for saying (or otherwise state that he said) [insert curse word here], then calm down.

One time, he broke a table. I just cannot remember if I was in the room at the time, and I can't remember how it was broken (big chunk off of it? Broken leg or two? Both?), but I think after that, he "took some time off." I also seem to vaguely remember a chair being thrown or set down really hard, which I was in the room for.
 
I don't remember much, but one time my Health teacher chased a student around with a plunger, and to this day I think my school is the only one that has a zombie unit in English.
 
Oh gee I can;t think of much now, but I will have LOTS to post here day-to-day. My school is crazy.
 
Nice thread! This is seriously awesome

Well, I'll start off by bragging about my school

My school is over 100 years old and four years ago, right before I arrived as a freshman there, they finish reviving the architecture.
My school is epic-looking. Maybe I'll post a picture of the front of it because I have a few pics. My school is Gothic revival. It's got gargoyls, chimneys, a totally church-like auditorium wing which has a copper roof with four towers on it. We've got a 100 year old swimming pool, a set of solid copper doors to it, a front hall with beautiful historic scenes painted on the walls, a great view of the water, and so much more. The school itself isn't that big compared to other high schools these days. However, there's a part of the school that is about 9 to 10 floors tall, but the reason is because it's built into a steep steep hill.
However, much of the inside just looks like a modernized old building. It's overall nice though, except there are some accidents waiting to happen like heavy doors that swing hard and fast, leaking boiling water and openings in the staircase that they keep trying to block, but people (including myself) keep climbing through them. Plus, there's this one narrow hall (short, but narrow and tight) and narrow halls are the last thing you want in my overcrowded high school where the crowds get so thick, they need traffic cops and.

Since it's old, people report ghost sightings. I heard an old story that one of the cleaners of the school was in the school's attic (yes, the school DOES have an attic) and he saw a ghost or something. I also heard a ghost following me one time in the oldest part of the school in this secluded staircase.

About the people:
my school is great. Everyone likes ya, unless you're a really mean person. Where there's one nerd, there's a whole army to back them up. In other words, teasing oddballs is unheard of. We've got so many races and ethnicities in my school, we're like the school of the world.

I'll look for my school on msn's maps and maybe post a picture or two

Wow, sounds like a great teacher. I almost cried when I read it.
 
Another tale from the University:

A while back, I was writing a short paper for homework. When I clicked print my (brilliant, I thought) response got eaten by the printer (in other words, did not print, even though I told it to print)

Since I had very little time to write it over again, I wound up rewriting it in all of five minutes
 
I originally posted this on the ramdom messaged thread, but you'll get a better kick out of it here.

Lol this is something funny that happened in band. We were playing a song called, "Temple of Sinawava", and Mr. O (our band director), wanted the brass players to play their part. Then a saxophone player started playing, and Mr. O decided to explain that the saxophones were not brass instruments, but woodwinds. in his own way. It went like this...

Mr. O: "A brass instrument is any instrument made of brass... With the exeption of the saxophone. The saxophone is a woodwind instrument. You could call it a cross-dresser. In fact, in the instrument world, all you saxophone players are gender-confused. *whole class starts cracking up* And this is only in the instrument world, okay?"

Lol.
 
About my school: My school's pretty nice, and it's widely considered one of the most prestegious schools in the entire state. It's over 100 years old (we celebrated the 100 year anniversary last year) and it used to be an all-boys military school. It's over 100 acres large (which sounds kinda big, but seems relatively small to me) and it's mostly full of a mixture of old house-like buildings, construction sites (for upcoming additions/renovations) and newer buildings.

Well, the only thing interesting that happened at school today was our baseball game. We lost, 14 to 7, and it was freaking freezing. Most of us escaped the cold in the equipment shed (Which is in the home-team dugout), and we couldn't really tell what was going on in the game. So, basically we spent the entire game telling lame jokes and making tons of movie and T.V. show references, but overall it was pretty fun. I only played like three innings though.
 
My daughter's middle school was on lockdown last week because some kid brought a BB-gun to school. Nobody was hurt and he was arrested.
 
Reminds me of the time a bomb threat closed my high school down for almost the whole day.

See, I was in my second period class doing some work, and they come over the intercom telling us to evacuate. So I grab my stuff and head on out, thinking it'll all be over in five minutes.

Boy, was I wrong.

By the time the all clear was given, it was almost the end of the day. They told us to go to our seventh period classes, but half the school was blowing that off, so I did too.

They caught who was making the string of bomb threats a few weeks later.

Something like that happened at my school too. News spread around that some kid had brought a gun to school. It was false, but the whole day everyone was scared out of their wits. This was a couple days after the school shooting in Cleveland, and our district is about an hour from Cleveland.
 
Our school runs on rotations where we alternate between six consecutive weeks of Health and PE, and we just finished PE.

There's this really dysfunctional kid in my eighth period Health/PE, and one of my friends has to sit next to him in Health. On the last day we had PE, I told my friend that he was going to have to sit next to the dyfunctional kid again. He turns to me and says, "Can you shoot me, please?" That's how dysfuntional this kid is.
 
I go to Catholic school (not my choice and fortunately, it's only a few months and I'm free) and every year, we are taken for Lent retreat to a village called Dólsk, to a priest who's a friend of our headmistress. We all hate that place, we hate that priest.. When he saw us, he was so kind to inform us that he's absolutely sure that more than half of us are already posessed by Satan. He says it's because we listen to modern music which was created by Satan. According to him, The Beatles were hiding Satanic messages in their lyrics and Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin, when played on reverse, praises Satan.
I guess that counts as school story, because it happened on an obligatory school trip?
 
Well, yesterday in my math class, my teacher showed us this cool project on volume using rice krispies. Each group got three cups of rice krispies. My friend, Sam, says that he's starving (I don't blame him, we eat lunch at freaking 10:30 a.m) so he starts eating the rice krispies. My math teacher states that she wouldn't eat the krispies if we were her because she has used the same rice krispies every year for 5 years.

Sam: (sick look on his face) excuse me (runs out of the room)

Class: :lol:
 
We were in algebra class, learning about circles, right? One of the students weren't listening, and our math teacher suddenly says, "Oh Ryan, you break my heart." And everyone starts laughing.
