Stabbing incident
On Thursday, April 20, 2000 a 15-year-old boy entered the school with a kitchen knife (steak knife) in his backpack, which he brought from home. The boy could not be named due to the Young Offenders Act after being charged with one count of attempted murder, five counts of assault with a weapon and one count of possessing a dangerous weapon.
The incident began with an argument during lunch hour, outside the library on the second floor. The boy threatened a fellow student before finally stabbing him with a knife. The boy then ran through the school and stabbed another student, while a third student was stabbed by the computer room and two more inside the room. One of the victims was a technician who was stabbed in the back. The principal at the time, Michael Jordan, talked the teenaged boy down and convinced him to give up the knife, but not before attempting to inflict wounds on his own wrists.
The boy was afterwards described as a "loner" and had often been bullied and teased about his appearance.
