Main article: West Iruma Public High School Shooting

On May 16, 1985, at approximately 1:21 PM, WIPHS has seen a school shooting most would call the most deadly shooting in Nishiyama. The incident, which left 40 dead and 15 injured, was perpetrated by Korean 17-year-old Song Ji-ae, had dyslexia and psychotic tendencies at the time of the shooting, the latter being untreated and neglected. She killed herself once the police arrived. The Shintoist Province and Scarlet Devil of Minecraftia claimed responsibility for the attack the following day in a propaganda video sent to the school, with Hanayo Katsuragi giving a lecture on how she and her husband Fred Fuchs can radicalize those who are mentally ill.

Two survivors of the shooting, Umeka Maekawa and Sol Min-soo, as well as Mr. Geng Chao, a librarian who was shot in the chest while protecting two students, were interviewed in a documentary about the shooting in 2004. In 2016, three survivors by the names of Kayoko Enoshima, Chihiro Tachibana and Park Mi-yeon were interviewed in a documentary about the shooting.

On May 24, a memorial for the students who died in the shooting was built in front of the school, and it is still up today.

2004 Fight[]

Main article: Murder of Junzo Tanikawa

On June 1, 2004, two 11th graders named Junzo Tanikawa and Tomomi Shibata got in an explosive physical altercation after 5 months of fighting on social media over a girl in their class named Okichi Tazawa, known as "Oki" by her family. At the time of the fight, Okichi was already in a relationship with Tomomi, who played competitively on WIPHS' football team. Junzo had a crush on Okichi, and Tomomi did not like this.

The fight lasted for two and a half hours and stopped when Junzo collapsed on the ground. He was rushed to the hospital but died upon arrival due to blood loss caused by multiple punches to the abdomen and other vital organs. Upon the news about Junzo's death being spread across the country, Tomomi was arrested by police for first-degree murder and conspiracy to provide material support and resources to Team Crimson and received a permanent sentence three weeks after her arrest.

Junzo's funeral was held on the 6th on that month at the Kawashima Funeral Home in Iruma. At the front of the school, a bench was built in remembrance of him, and the 2004 yearbook was dedicated in his honor, with a page dedicated to him at the back of the book, which included a school picture of him with "IN LOVING MEMORY OF JUNZO TANIKAWA", and "1988 - 2004" written beneath it.

2014 Party Popper Incident[]

On February 17, 2014, a 16-year-old Chinese special needs student by the name Yuan Mei Lingxin, who has dyslexia and Asperger's syndrome was reported to be mistreated by Japanese 34-year-old Chisuzu Iori, who was a special ed teacher at the time of the incident. Reportedly, Chisuzu was revoked of her teaching position after she was reported to be tormenting Yuan, by letting off a party popper multiple times over the course of one day in Yuan's face, knowing she was frightened by loud noises. The student ran out of the room and ran downstairs to the sensory room, where Chisuzu followed her and kept firing off the party popper.
At her court hearing, Chisuzu claimed that the incident was “Just a joke”, and “[Yuan] will be fine” when it was obvious the teen was not fine. Chisuzu was charged with a misdemeanor, but did not serve any jailtime. The 34-year-old has since been fired, and is required to not work near children ever again.
