History

1985 hostage incident

On March 29, 1985, a fifteen year old freshman came to school with a loaded .38-caliber Colt revolver. Then teacher, Ms. Peggy Larson, who taught algebra, suspected one of her students of drinking and attempted to take him to the school's principal's office. The student then broke away and fled out a side door to his home. This student then returned to the school later the same day with his gun, and held four students hostage inside a classroom.

The incident lasted until a local pastor stepped into the classroom to talk down the student. The student was arrested, charged with four counts of kidnapping, and was then sent to Columbia for a psychological evaluation. After that, the student was then sent to then Spartanburg General Hospital, now called Spartanburg Regional, psychiatric's unit. After being released, the student was placed on probation until his 21st birthday, as well as being barred from being on school grounds, or intimidating the victims of this incident. Due to the student's age, as he was a minor, his name was not released.[2]
