2005 arson incident

In December 2005, a fire broke out at the school causing administrators to cancel classes. The fire started in a chemical storage area used for science class demonstrations, where approximately 200 mL of mercury was stored. The mercury vaporized, causing contamination throughout the building, in addition to other vandalism, creating hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage. Two students were subsequently charged in Lucas County Juvenile Court with delinquency in connection with arson.
