We had a girl in middle school who was raped by her uncle and carried the pregnancy to term and, IIRC, graduated high school. She was impregnated at age 11. The wealthy white girls who got pregnant were all disappeared as soon as it was known.

Rural Ohio, almost entirely white school - mid-to-late '90s. Bunch of kids decided to form kinda gangs. One wore cowboy hats and boots. I forget the other. Apparently, a bunch came armed to a football game for some kind of "gang war". Thankfully, that never materialized, but I do know that some definitely came armed. WTF people. No non-whites were allowed in said gangs. (This brought to you by the town with white supremacists and anti-Semites who would say "that's Jewish" to mean something was uncool).

Edit: both of these public school in the same school system.
