On May 18, 1927, the small farming community of Bath, Michigan, suffered the deadliest school attack in American history.
Explosives secretly planted beneath the local school detonated shortly after classes began, collapsing an entire section of the building. As parents, teachers, and neighbors desperately searched the rubble for survivors, another explosion struck nearby.
By the end of the day, 38 children and six adults had been killed, with dozens more injured.
The attack shocked the nation, yet the Bath School disaster has largely faded from American memory.
