I don’t really think Dylan Klebold bullied other students, I’m pretty sure that was Eric.

Adam Lanza is pretty obvious but a few teachers tried to go out of their way by accommodating him. His anxiety from school was so intense Nancy had to take him to the ER. He stopped going to high school when he was ~14 I think? [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Adam when he was in 10th Grade.
This website - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] is somewhat inaccurate as it lists photos of Ryan Lanza as Adam. There's a pretty big distinction between the two, imo.
Quote: "One of Adam's teachers said he had "episodes" when he became completely silent and withdrawn, but appeared to be making progress socially in school." I never heard that before. I always assumed he just kept to himself.

I always wondered this, but do you know where this photo of him was taken?

Damn, I dropped out a year before Lanza did. I always wondered how he finished public schooling. I did not know he dropped out! Thanks for sharing.

I think this photo was taken at Newtown High School, but I'm not exactly sure.

Randan Fontaine:
Fontaine had struggled in school, but teachers described him as a "quiet person." He started Grade 10 for the third time. Barely did any school work. While Fontaine and a friend were eating lunch in the school canteen, he reportedly told the friend: "If you were told one day or if someone came into the school and shot it up and they told you it was me, would you believe it?"

Yes, the picture was taken at Newtown High School. Behind him you can see the logo of the “Newtown Television” which is still a project of the Tech Club to this day, in which Adam Lanza also participated.
Thanks for the info!

I wanted to clarify that Adam Lanza did not drop out of high school and actually received his diploma a year earlier than he would have if he had attended normally. There were periods where he was not attending school at all, periods where he was classified as "homebound" and receiving educational instruction or tutoring provided by his school district within the home, periods where he was attending special education or mainstream classes for shortened amounts of time, and periods where he took college classes as "independent study" for high school credit.

(Generally, a person with disabilities like Adam's would be entitled to continued support from the educational system through age 21 and instead, Adam graduated and was exited from special education services at age 17. This was not necessarily the right thing to do, even if he managed to complete the academic requirements for graduation. By his last year of school, he was not willing or able to tolerate mainstream classes at NHS.)

A few years ago, I had written a relatively brief summary of his life (so I just want to point out that it is certainly missing some information that was released more recently, including details about school - we now have school transcripts and other specifics that we didn't used to have from a major release of random documents from the home). It goes through the complicated educational plan that eventually allowed him to graduate with a HS diploma from Newtown High School, if anyone is interested in the details.

Also, I never managed to get around to finishing (or even updating) this thread as my own life took some odd turns but I collected a decent number of police interviews with people who knew Adam Lanza at various points in his life, including several former classmates and Tech Club members. It could be of interest if you would like to know what his peers felt about him, though some of this was actually included in the summary that I have linked above.
