There were quite a few, though ironically most of the "incidents" at my school were ones that happened at the neighboring public school that leaked over to my school.

I did cause a scare once though. I was the student tasked with helping with the yearbook. Where I live, we have a tradition called "most likely to", where we make questions in the yearbook under a "most likely to _______" format and we nominate classmates to those positions. For example, one section might say "most likely classmate to graduate from Yale", or another might say "most likely classmate to start a cult", stuff like that. This is a well-known tradition. What I didn't know is that inserting one that said "most likely to do a school shooting" was a baaaaaad idea. I thought it was just another entry, but I didn't think maybe the people would panic and I'd be put in in-school suspension. Fortunately my only time in in-school suspension and thus the only time I've had to wear suspenders (they add suspenders to the school uniform of suspended people).
