21 Teachers And Students Share The Greatest Suspension Story They’ve Ever Witnessed

Kids will be kids, but that doesn't come without punishment.

Leaving His Legacy

“My favourite one took place at my high school. A troublemaker in the 11th grade was essentially on his last chance. One morning, he was sitting in class, and he shouted out at the teacher that he needed to use the bathroom. The teacher, thinking that he would simply be getting up to no good, refused his request. Following this, the student promptly grabbed the nearest water bottle near him, drained it, and urinated into it. Never saw him again – but we told the middleschoolers of his legacy for years to come” Source

A Game Of Cat And Mouse

“Our 3rd-4th grade classroom had high ceilings and a sweet loft above the teacher’s office space. Our teacher was a pretty old school disciplinarian, which was a great match for this one kid Jamie, who probably had untreated ADHD. One day Jamie was screwing off, or talking back, or something and our teacher gives him a detention, tells him to go to the vice prinicipals office. Jamie says no, and skirts right up to the loft.

For the next 30 minutes the entire class watches this game of cat and mouse as our white haired teacher and the vice principal try to catch Jamie, a lithe 8 year old boy, who climbs up and down from the loft to the office space below over and over again, these two grown adults running up and down the tiny kid stairs to grab him.

Eventually the VP catches him, tucks him under his arm, and marches out. Didn’t see Jamie for awhile after that” Source

Finish Him!

“Ok this is a bit of a long story. the backstory is I was in middle school, and mortal kombat had just come out and i was loving playing it.

So in school we would have a social studies class, we would learn things like sex education, anti drugs stuff all sorts basically. In todays class we are learning about domestic violence, how it occurs and what we should do if it happens yada yada.

So the teacher puts on this video towards the end of class It is like an afterschool special about domestic violence basically. It would show a scene then the video would stop and it would have an on screen question designed to prompt disscusion like ‘what should Timmy do now’.

It gets to the point in this video where the abusive father is arguing with his son. It starts out verbal but gets more and more heated. As it gets out of hand the Dad pulls back his fist to hit son. Just before the punch land the tape pauses for an onscreen question

Now like i said i had been playing a lot of mortal kombat lately, so for some reason i just shout out FINISH HIM in the style of MK. The class goes quiet. Everyone looks at me in disgust. The teacher instantly threw me out of the class and to the principles office. I got sent home for the day” Source

You Sir, Are A Terrible Person

“Sit down and let me regale you with a tale from my more youth-ey youth. (I can’t just say tale of my youth because I am technically still a youth.)

In my 8th grade English class, we were studying the Holocaust. We were watching a documentary and at one point it stated that it was estimated that Hitler killed 6,000,000 Jews, and 10,000,000 people total.

Now at this time I was even more of a little s— than I am now, and in my best Halo voice, from the back of the class, I growled, “KILLING SPREE.”

No one seemed to find it as funny as I did… Miraculously I got in zero trouble; everyone already knew I was aforementioned little s—” Source

Instantly Expelled

“One of the teachers in my school had a sex change, from a man to a woman. Some kid in year 8 (7th grade) drew a penis on her classroom board and was instantly expelled” Source

Guilty By Association

“It was my freshman year of college, and it was finals week, and therefore 24-hour quiet hours in my dorm. Any violation of finals week quiet got you kicked the f— out.

One night I got into the elevator with a floormate and three of his guests. One of his guests had difficulty operating the elevator buttons, and when she got it right the guy and his guests applauded her great achievement.

Elevator door opens at the ground floor to the b–hiest RA in existence. She asks for our IDs. Guy and his friends try to explain to her that I was just standing there, but she didn’t give a f—. I got called in to the resident director’s office the following morning and I got evicted.

I got evicted from my dorm for being in an elevator while other people clapped” Source

Man Down, Man Down!

“Someone attacked a teacher who was allergic to peanuts with a snickers bar” Source

A Communication Problem

“When I was an exchenge student in the US the only suspension I ever got was from wearing my swedish class hoodie, It said on the back of the hoodie, “we have had six years together” but in swedish, and it was signed by all my class mates from sweden. The thing is that the number six is spelled the same as sex, so all they could read was SEX written large on the back of my hoodie. got a three day suspensioned becouse they wanted to take it from me and i wouldn’t let them” Source

A Tuna Problem

“My 7th grade “team” — the group of teachers we all had — put together an elaborate detention/suspension policy. Two missed homeworks meant losing your lunch period (a “lunch detention”). Three was an automatic detention and a demerit. Five demerits meant an in-school suspension; ten meant an out of school one.

My math teacher — whom I generally liked, but later realized wasn’t a very good math teacher — had a bug up her butt about tuna. Yes, tuna. This was when tuna companies were grabbing dolphins in their nets and it was a big deal in the press, and she was on the warpath. She gave you a warning for bringing tuna sandwiches into school (even though the cafeteria sold it) and two warnings meant a detention. That never happened, because she probably couldn’t give a detention for that, but it scared us and got you on her s— list.

One day, this kid Josh has a lunch detention with this teacher and brought a tuna sandwich that day. She gives him a warning, or so the story goes — none of us were there. Later that day, he’s in class and his homework isn’t done, so that should be an automatic detention. But he’s working to finish it while she’s going around talking to the rest of us.

She notices, of course, and says something to the effect of “your homework better be done before I get to you or you’re going to be suspended.” It seemed like she was giving him a 5 minute grace period to finish up, but that’s not he saw it. He goes to correct her — “you mean detention, not suspension” — figuring she misspoke. After all, a suspension is a much, much bigger deal, and the rules don’t call for that at all. She says no, suspension, and brings up the tuna sandwich. He flips out, saying that she can’t do that, and she says “as long as you’re in my classroom, you obey my rules” or something to that effect.

So he yells “then I’m leaving your classroom!” and jumps out the window.

He was suspended for three days” Source

A Firing Squad

“There was someone pulling the fire alarm in our school when I was in the 9th grade. Happened about 5 times in 2 weeks, so they installed the ones that shoot ink. 6th and last time it happened you see this girl in handcuffs being led into a police cruise, with ink smeared all over her face, hands, and shirt.

Word is she tried to put a piece of paper over the alarm as she pulled it, and failed miserably. Never saw her again” Source

The Internet Catches All

“Was dared to put up a porn screensaver in 6th grade. We found a loop hole back then, where on the school servers and I think my state, didn’t block pornography images when you clicked on google images, it only blocked the main sites.

Anyway, back in the day, you could type Lisa+Bart into google images and it would show lisa blowing bart or something similar. So I set the screen saver as Willie reaming lisa. Next day, the whole class was interviewed and I got snitched out. Got suspended for a week, for a 6th grader that was a huge deal. This was also a big deal for me as well, as I was a really good kid, I never did anything that bad in my life…

A week later my states education department had a meeting and changed their whole proxy, now literally everything is banned in images. You would find it hard to even view a potato, so yeah.

Edit: forgot to mention that we had been looking at these images on Google for around 2 weeks before I was dared. They actually caught about 6 other kids who did it as well. And they had the I.t. guys print out all of our search history. The principal then read out all of our search terms. One of my friends had searched “Filipino hookers” (he was Filipino) it was f—ing hilarious” Source

Free Speech

“My friend wore a t-shirt that said “Legalize Gay” on it. He ended up getting suspended over it, because he wouldn’t change” Source

No Justice In The School System

“Once someone gave me a bloody nose, I fought back, but somehow I was the only one who got in trouble (I lost a half hour recess, serious business). Because the other person involved didn’t get in any trouble at all, even though they started it and I was bleeding, I refused to stay inside for the detention. They suspended me until I came in to do the detention (they had us help do random things around the school, usually set up mattresses for nap time in the kindergarten). It was a week before my parents made me give in.

That is how I learned that there is no justice in school” Source

Glitter Fight!!!

“Got in school suspension for filling empty water bottles with glitter (from the art room) and having a glitter fight in the halls, cafeteria, etc during lunch shift… There was glitter everywhere!! There was still remnants a year later…poor janitors…they should have made us clean that up” Source

A Case Of Mistaken Identity

“In class we were looking at the Met police’s most wanted men when we realised one of them looks extremely similar to our teacher (people actually believe it was him, like identical twins or something).

Me and a group of friends got everyone in the class to change their desktop screen savers to the picture of the most wanted man and got every one to print it off on the computers.

Teacher saw flipped out and we all got suspended for taking photos of a teacher and publicly sharing them. (himself and all the other teachers believed it was a photo of him).

I’ll do some googling to try find the image” Source

Lies!

“Not me, but a friend of mine in my english class got expelled for touching his crotch when telling a teacher he had to pee. She told the principal that he took his penis out and shook it at her. Instantly expelled” Source

Taking A Stand

“A couple of my guy friends were suspended for making out in school in protest of not allowing same sex couples to the prom. They’re both straight and one has a kid now” Source

The Slushee Bandit

“Dude would hide at the top floor of the school, wait until classes changed, then launch gigantic Slushees over the balcony onto hordes of unsuspecting students and faculty below. Happened a few times before they caught him”

A Change of Scenery

“I got kicked out of my C++ programming class in my senior year for a month for moving a computer monitor when we had a substitute teacher. I wanted a 19″ and had a 15″. There was a free desk with a 19″ sitting there and assigned seating. So I took the 19″ and hooked it up. For some reason they actually cared and threatened to expel me” Source

The Phantom Pooper

“There was a kid at my junior high only known as the “phantom pooper.” He or she would leave s–ts around the school in a brown paper bag. Nobody ever found out who did it, but administration threatened expulsion” Source

What An Awful Rumor

“When I was in 6th grade, one of my teachers was pregnant. I got suspended for a rumor that was going around, that I got her pregnant” Source
