Shooting[edit]
On September 30, 2015, Mason Buhl, a student at the school, walked into school with his father's shotgun and shot the current principal in the shoulder. This marked only the second time a school shooting happened in South Dakota. Buhl was promptly arrested and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
