About Cleveland Elementary School shooting (San Diego)

  • The Grover Cleveland Elementary School shooting took place on January 29, 1979, at a public elementary school in San Diego, California, United States.
  • The principal and a custodian were killed; eight children and a police officer were injured.
  • A 16-year-old girl, Brenda Spencer, who lived in a house across the street from the school, was convicted of the shootings.
  • Charged as an adult, she pleaded guilty to two counts of murder and assault with a deadly weapon, and was given an indefinite sentence.
  • As of November 2019, she remains in prison. A reporter reached Spencer by phone while she was still in the house after the shooting, and asked her why she did it.
  • She reportedly answered: "I don't like Mondays.
  • This livens up the day," which inspired Bob Geldof and Johnnie Fingers to write the Boomtown Rats song "I Don't Like Mondays".
