Review:

One Tree Hill was a teenage drama focusing on the lives of high school students. This particular episode dealt with the ramifications of Jimmy saying hurtful things about the different cliques in his high school. Consequently, he way physically attacked and the following morning, Jimmy brought a gun to school to confront his attackers. After firing a shot, he sent the school into a frenzy and eventually held a group hostage. The culmination of the episode occurred when Jimmy is unable to cope with his actions and he turned the gun on himself, committing suicide. The subsequent episode dealt with the students’ grief in the aftermath.

This episode is beneficial for counselor educators dealing with school bullying/violence, anger management, and/or suicide topics in the classroom. The following episode could help educators highlight certain behaviors that may lead to incidents of bullying or violence in a school setting. School counseling students could identify Jimmy’s lack of anger management or isolation from bullying incidents and discuss ways to intercede before any violent behaviors could take place. It can be beneficial for school counseling students to witness these trigger events in a fictional reality and be prepared for real world situations. Finally, the closing lines may be a helpful catalyst for further discussion: "What happened to us, that we now send our children into the world like we send young men to war? Hoping for their safe return, but knowing that some will be lost along the way.”
