During lunch, a group of students thought it would be funny to light off about 100 firecrackers in one of the stairwells. What proceeded afterwards was nothing short of mass hysteria and panic.
Only in yankeestan. In my country no one REEEE;s about "muh mass shottings!" when some children light off firecrackers in class

fiirwerks!
I was sitting in my classroom eating lunch with some students when a student of my runs into my room to announce there’s a shooter on campus. I look out my window from the second floor and see about 100 students running across the bus circle and hitting the fence to jump it, fleeing onto a busy road for safety. It turns out, all over campus students were running for their lives.
As a former student I imagine a lot of them were just running because it meant they could get out of class.
An announcement comes on, but my incompetent administrator yells something incomprehensible and it cuts out (the intercoms have been absolute shit at my school for years).
lol
I later heard stories that teachers were locking students out of their rooms, panicking with the hysteria, and making matters much worse than needed
LMAO. Imagine going back to english class the next day knowing Mrs bitcherson left you to fricking die

How much does a firework really sound like a gunshot?

Not at all.
Only thing I can think of is that the way schools are built, the noise was amplified down the hallway, but even then, firecrackers sound nothing like gun shots.

Firecrackers don't. They're more like a loud uneven and fast crackling sound. I guess these people really do believe guns can empty the 30 caliber magazine clip in half a second

Ask my neighbors. I moved out of the ghetto into a rich neighborhood and if you were to go by Ring Neighborhood or Nextdoor you'd think it was fricking South Chicago any time someone drops a 2x4 or lights a firecracker at Christmas.
