On September 21, 2009, Gwinnett County was overtaken by heavy pouring rain. Because of this, the county chose not to close the schools, but rather to push their start times back by ninety minutes. Students who were unaware of this showed up at Collins Hill at the normal school start time, and were instructed to remain in the building until the rest of their classmates arrived. At around 8:30 am, it was announced that school was officially canceled for the day, and that all students were to call their parents to come pick them up using normal check out procedures. Students present at this time were witness to chaos at the grade level offices as parents flooded into the school, seniors fleeing the campus, and administrators becoming increasingly hysterical with each PA broadcast. While waiting to leave the building, several students remarked, "I wish I had a camera right now. This is so epic."
