Students moved the principals entire office to the middle of the football field. A few teachers let them in the night before. They used a photo to recreate the whole office and had plywood/2x4’s that made walls. It was hilarious. Principal used that office all day and the kids moved it all back that afternoon.
That’s part of what these students did? Bc that’s funny to me. I don’t think that’s destructive. Especially since they put it back themselves. I would have loved that if I were that principal. An entire day outside!
I’m shocked that these days they were allowed in the school- alone! We did innocent things back in the day but we still weren’t given the keys to go in!!!
It sounds as if the “pranksters” did more than what was approved. There’s the problem. Desks overturned (unless damaged) isn’t such a big deal. Paint ball on walls? That is vandalism and costs real money to fix. Hopefully from the pockets of the perpetrators. Big difference between pranks and vandalism.
Whom. Why were they alliwed to bring in paint ball guns in the first place. There should of been security, and should of performed bag checks to make sure items were not coming in that could cause vandalism. This could of been much worse. Luckiky no ons brought in cans of spray paint or fire starting materials. It takes one or two people to ruin something good for everyone.
@@SweetPea1993 excellent observation. No you are not missing anything. This is how it was done. The flagpole stood just over 29 ft from the main building. The top of the pole was a few feet lower than the roof. Getting on the roof was easy as the rear of the main building wasn't visible to anyone. 2 teams. 4 each. 1 person attached the tires to a rope and 3 people pulled the tires to the roof. Second team threw a rope from the roof to the bottom of the flagpole. Rope was attached to cable on the pole and run to the top. Tire were then slid down the rope to the pole. Took 3 to 4 people to whip the rope hard enough to get the tire to drop over the pole. By the 8th tire it went more smoothly. We left the way came. No lights on the cars, quietly and unseen.
My high school had a big archway over the main front door. My class's prank was to paint the arch into a rainbow overnight. The principal came on the morning annoucements and gave a speech about how much he liked it, that no one would get in trouble if the students involved would come back and paint it more carefully. So they did. And it stayed that way until the school was torn down and re-built about 20 years later.
I didn't participate in my senior prank, but a bunch of kids in my class stole a ton of real estate "for sale" signs and put them in front of the school to make it look like the school was for sale.
We posted the principals car for sale stupidly cheap (to get alot of responses) in the local news paper (yeah I'm old) and put the direct number to his office. Saw him a coupla years later and he said he got calls all summer long over that one.
My last class of my 1972 senior year was Building and Trades Class and some of us caught an Armadillo. We decided to release it into the main hallway of the school just as the final bell rang. Three of us took a position at the hallway intersection to make sure the 'dillo went down the main hall and not off to a side hall. When the bell rang, class doors opened and we released the poor critter. It started down the hallway as planned, but just then the door to the principal's office opened and he dashed in there for safety, after seeing the crowd in the hall. The principal stepped back, let the 'dillo go by and pointed at us three and said, "Get in my office NOW!" After re-catching the Armadillo and releasing it into a nearby field, we were allowed to go home...all three of us with sore butts from the principal's paddle!
My senior prank had a beach party in our JROTC classroom, laid out tarps with white sand and built a little sand castle, few kiddie pools with one of them filled with Kool-Aid and other with Gatorade, and filled our instructor’s office with beach balls
Senior prank day has been around for decades so it’s not going anywhere. And the few bad kids shouldn’t be able to ruin it for everyone else. Especially when not allowing isn’t gonna stop the bad kids from doing it so what would be the point?
This happened at my high school when I was in 10th grade. Younger students got involved with the “pranks” and caused considerable damage. The seniors were told they wouldn’t have graduation activities until all the damage was paid for.
Lol imagine being the cleaning crew for the school coming in the next day and there's only a smoldering crater where the school used to be.... Its a prank 😂😂
We had a senior skip day but no prank day. My sister's senior class, and most senior classes before hers, took a cruise to the Bahamas but supposedly a teacher/chaperon got caught fooling around with a student on the cruise and put an end to the cruises. The cruise was after graduation and the student was 18 so it wasn't quite as big of a deal but she never returned as a teacher. My senior trip was to Epcot and happened on a school day prior to graduation. (We lived in Florida)
Our class “borrowed” a famous restaurant sign, that most kids went to for lunch or hung out at after school. Our senior class had lots of memories there. So when everyone walked in the next day, a certain letter was lit up in the atrium. Hard to pull off but we did it! These days senior prank day doesn’t exist. Sad.
Before Home Depot was bought out, it used to be a great place to work. We had a 2 level parking lot attached to the building, and the roof wasn't too far up if you were on the 2nd level (you had to walk downstairs, or take the elevator to go in the store. The warehouse associates took their managers tiny car by picking it up with a forklift, and put it on the roof. Then they shrink wrapped it. It was funny, but he was kind of pissed off. After Home Depot was sold it became a whole lot less fun .
The senior prank at my school for year 2000 was sending the principal on a day long quest through out the school tracking "sticky notes" while solving riddles, puzzles and math problems on those notes that would give a clue of where the next note or his goal would be. The notes were clues that were leading him to the final location where he could find his Lazy boy office chair that he loved. When he went into office that morning his lazy boy chair was missing with a little kid's chair from the child development room hitting in it's place that had the 1st note stuck on it. The last note eventually led him to the school pool maintenance room area with his chair sitting in a little plastic kiddie pool filled with a few ball-pit balls and also a retirement cake that was provided by the office staff for him sitting on top his chair. Office staff where in on the "prank" how else would the students have gotten access to his chair, when members of class asked them for help a week or so prior they decided to include the cake as he was retiring that year, so it was his last too. It was different then, our school did this because everyone actually liked the guy. It was the assistant principal no student liked.
No we had a senior prank. We covered the floor of every classroom with cups of water and all the major hallways 💦 it was really fun :) I’m almost 30 now. We also put the principals car in our gym 😂❤( it was easy to just drive it back out I promise ❤) haha
There isn't a prank day allowed, kids just do it. And they should be punished for it. In the school I went to, you got expelled or didn't get to graduate.
In my time (50+ years ago) our thing was "Senior Cut Day." I showed up at school on the designated Friday, but went truant the next Monday to go see the Phillies game, while the school administration was preoccupied with making good their promised consequences to those who cut school the previous Friday. They never got around to questioning me about my absence.
This seems a little… extreme. All my friends and I did was was up an entire beach in the parking lot and hold a barbecue in the back of the FFA truck. The wind blew away the sand the next day. 🏖🌸
All seniors have a senior skip day, a prank day, it’s up to the school and the children of that school to make sure boundaries are introduced for what is ok and what isn’t ok. We have senior skip days and pranks for more than a decade 😂 we did them when I was in school 10 years ago❤ but it rarely and never ended with police. It was usually stacks of chairs zip tied together in all the classrooms, cups of water in the hallways and down the classrooms, the principal car moved (not anywhere dangerous and somewhere easily able to move it back), I come from a small town where PD will often participate if u ask 😂❤ and our officer that always came to our school participated so this never occurred. Tbh I blame the school. 😂❤️ lol Edit: To those of u being insulting: u wonder why ur children don’t know better when u act this way? It’s pretty obvious ITS YOU. 🤣👍 clean urself u, grow up, and develop some skills to speak to people and maybe ur kdis won’t be a menace to society lmao I don’t care if u don’t like what I said. I don’t care if u don’t agree with me. I didn’t insult any of u… but u say here insulting me school, my intelligence… lmao it’s truly disgusting and I see nothing wrong with ur behavior and u wonder what’s wrong with ur children? ITS YOU and YOUR BEHAVIOR it’s starts with you parents…. Insulting someone else’s is Education is pretty disgusting But just so ur aware my brother became an aeronautical engineer… I moved on to served army Intelligence after high school, my younger brother opened a financial services business… my friends all work government jobs or run businesses… some of my friends own houses in the one richest counties in the USA… lmao my best friend became a prosecutor for rape and violent offenders…. lol Ur right my school probably taught us nothing… what do all of u do for work that makes u want ur kids to follow those footsteps instead? Have they had any guns in the school they attend? What about drugs? lol But right u had space to talk about my school and my situation… but I have no room to talk about urs? lol Let’s talk: I never had a gun or drugs in my school lmao most of us actually lead successful pretty good lives lmao The assumptions under my post about my school are disgusting but notice these r adults and parents and that’s how they choose to express their opinions and they expect THEIR CHILDREN to know better when the parents r sitting here doing the same BS 🤣 do better and grow up
@@lyssgoddess If it's an "official" event then it doesn't count in my book. Our "skip days" were word of mouth and we got in trouble for it. Pranks just appeared out of nowhere and everyone had to guess who was responsible, stuff like that. But I'm old now so times have obviously changed.
@@lyssgoddess 2 days ago "All seniors have a senior skip day, a prank day, it’s up to the school and the children of that school to make sure boundaries are introduced for what is ok and what isn’t ok. " School is not a social club, nor is it a Fraternity, nor a gang...But, wait....it is now. The school administration being a part of any thing like this is the problem. Of course the problems are bigger than this...We just need to start somewhere and chart a new course...like it is supposed to be...and was. Fifty years ago (hard to believe) I received a public school education (I kid you NOT) and any of these activities that school admin is allowing now (supposed with 'limits' ) were not allowed (but most definitely did happen) and consequences were liberally applied with good effect. We have to reclaim public schools as institutions of learning and not allow social experiments and societal destruction.
@@lyssgoddess No they don't, that means you went to a school who didn't care about your future. Everything is word of the mouth, and the school districts we had would expel you or take your diploma right from your hands.
Didn't the vid say the school let them in after hours just so they could do their prank? Hold the people that let them in responsible as well, give them the same $50 fine and 2 hours community service.
My thought is 17 , 18 year olds have been given education on responsibility , what things -labor costs , consequences for behavior , prank meaning vs vandalism.. In 1970 1 of ours was toilet paper , shaving cream , pour a bunch of BRUT cologne in wast baskets.. Small , not serious effects..
It was my junior year in high-school, but someone in my class pulled a 'prank' where he took a large amount of condiments pockets and just squirted them all over one of the boys bathroom. This was done on a Friday, so it wasn't discovered until the following Monday. I didn't see the inside of the bathroom, but you could smell rancid manyoaise coming from it, and one teacher who saw it said it was pretty bad. Anyway my entire class was gathered in the cafeteria and the perpetrator was given a chance to confess. The person didn't of course but one of the teachers knew exactly who it was. A few days later I found out it was who the teacher suspected. Anyway, from then on, the school never provided condiments packets, only just squirt bottles and you were allowed only so much on your plate or food. The goober who did it was this kid who thought he was the class clown. He never tried being one after that ever again.
based on what y’all showed my class was WAY WORSE. post it notes covered the hall, all chairs in the gym, slip n slide on the top floor, chickens, toilet paper, etc. LMFAO. they cleaned it all up in a few hours, us seniors had skip day the day after so we didn’t have to and nobody got in trouble💀
Someone poured some hardcore weed killer from their family's farm onto the lawn outside the principal's office window, and for the next three years, he was reminded that 86 ROCKS. There were also some random animal explorers who showed up in the gym at basketball games. The track n field equipment garage located at the entrance of school got covered in 86s one night. The guys who did it got caught and had in school suspension until they got the whole thing repainted...they were out three days. We mostly put 86s everywhere. People were finding 86s hidden in crazy places as far as 5 years later, with people asking "how did they get there there?"
I remember Senior pranks decades ago you broke in did your thing. Then come back the next day to see your handy work. You usually operated by yourself because you can't trust anyone
@@Vbooker50this does not mean “bad child” excuse ME. They are children. Shush they are still learning this is only vandalism. If they had actually hurt someone sure but no they just damaged property and it probably wasn’t their intent. Their intent was a joke on their school not to hurt anyone or cause this. Intent matter and motive matters for ur crime ✌️
@@mattschehr163intent and motive for crime matters he doesn’t understand the law clearly. Innocents is no excuse for breaking the law. However, I think the sentence or punishment should reflect that also. Minors that committed vandalism but they were only trying to prank their school and that prank went too far. They r children still learning Boundaires and such. ❤ this was just one of those bad choices they have to learn from. I feel sorry they had to make such a bad choice to learn it tho. ✌️ he is not educated ignore him dear ❤
My senior prank was getting even with two guys who bullied me endlessly when they were taking a shower after PE I noticed their lockers were open. No one else was in the bathroom so I grabbed all their clothes and took them no one in the gym but two girls knew they would not say anything so took them outside to the dumpster and threw them on
When I was a senior in the 80s we seniors TP’d the quad. A few years ago I taught at a school where the seniors put super glue in all the locks. I guess you could argue we paved the way, but feels extreme.
When I was in school, prank day consisted of leaving a ton of army men all over the school. It was actually awesome, because everyone took home a ton of army men. Some of them were even in mock battles.
We didn't really do a "prank day" we had our fair share of normal pranks; TP a room, tape a door, etc. All easy stuff for us to clean up afterward, but what made it fun was the teachers, principal, and administration were all good sports about it, and having that balance allowed it to be fun without going "overboard". Big tradition for our school was a "Senior Skip Day" where all the seniors just skipped class, again though it was a well-known tradition administration usually knew the date, and just accepted it and went along with it.
They should press charges for those that went too far. I appreciate the mom's response. Not all of the students did it so I appreciate that they were told they weren't charged. Those that did should pay. It wasn't that much. Wait until college, then there are fines for glow people treat a dorm!
Some seniors in my class camped out in tents on the front lawn one night at the end of the year. It seems fun and cool, but they (I would say it was about a fourth of the entire class participated maybe? I did not) ended up having *too* much fun and trashed the lawn. They left garbage and other things just laying there. The principal sent an email saying he's very disappointed and that he has camera footage of all who were there and if they don't come forward and say they were there, they would not be able to participate in the graduation ceremony. They must have "turned themselves in" because I didn't notice anyone missing from the ceremony. A few years before me, the senior class' prank was to bring their dogs to school. They were told pretty quickly they had to bring them back home, but I thought that was cute and funny, and harmless too.
Heck our class just put a few cows on the football field for prank day. Harmless, Funny, And the turf gets fertilized! And some angry football players. 😂
What the heck is an approved senior prank? What school district would approve a prank?!? Imagine being a custodian and your administrator is like, “So, yeah. I told a few hundred kids they could come make a mess in the school. Have fun cleaning it up.”
That stuff wasn’t allowed or sanctioned when I went to school. Even if it was, my PTSD suffering military father would’ve torn me a new one if I’d participated. Besides, any screwups would’ve barred me from being able to walk at commencement ceremonies as well as Grad Nite, which was overnight at Disneyland. I also thought to myself, “What will be more memorable? Ditching class to go get fast food across the street from campus or being able to hear my parents cheer for me while I received my diploma?” The answer was obvious.
We built a series of concrete block walls around the school as part of our pranks. We were careful to lay down plastic and plywood so nothing would get damaged, not even a scratch on the vinyl floors.
The class one year ahead of mine ruined things for my class. Someone "leaked" info about their senior skip day event, and the school principal took 3 empty school buses to the nearby beach and forced all the students to get on the buses and go back to school (leaving the kid's vehicles and gear still at the beach). That put an end to their follow-up prank day -- as well as all future prank days.
Some seniors got a cow to go up to the 2nd floor one year. Another year a greased pig set loose. A skunk one year, that was horrible, lol. Snakes in the girls bathroom as well. Things got crazy at my high school.
How can the students be sentence to a fine and community service without first being convicted of a crime in a court of law? They should sue the school district for violating their right to due process of law under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
When I was a senior in high school back in 2014 I don't recall any senior pranks or anything like that. But if I were to do a senior prank I'd have my classmates and I hide near one of the classrooms and when the teacher would walk out of the room I'd have my classmates and me walk in to the room and go to our seats and act like nothing happened after the teacher would walk back in. That's what I'd do for a senior prank.
In 2004, the senior prank at my school was the seniors stole the inflatable Shrek from Burger King and put in on the football stadium bleachers. It was awesome. Shrek was eventually returned to BK. lol
Our local high school was filled with toads. Seniors collected them and released them EVERYWHERE in the school. And that did not sit well. Harsh punishments were handed out. That was ten years ago. Boy times have changed.
Little pranks are fun, like making slight messes of certain classrooms, leaving appropriate items around, stuff like that, stuff that won't cause harm, stuff that everyone will have a good laugh about at the end of the day, but Full-On vandalism and that kind of stuff is not okay
my dad is a retired high school principal. The last school he was principal of the staff had heard rumors that students were planning to have a big senior prank on one weekend. There was a video productions class at the school and There was an assembly that friday so he told the video productions teacher to have video cameras there to film the assembly and told the teacher to tell the students who were film to have a lot of film of the crowd. That night 5 students wearing masks broke into the main building and trashed it they caused thousands of dollars in damage. The whole thing was caught on the video surveillance. They got caught quickly because they were wearing the same clothes that they wore to school that day which was seen in the video of the assembly
My class put four chickens in our halls labeled 1,2,3, and 5. The teachers were looking high and low for chicken number "4".
Funny.
That’s hilarious. Funny but not destructive. The true definition of a prank.
That's awesome
That's a good one!
😂😂😂😂
Soooo glad you showed footage and images of the damage so viewers could make an informed opinion on the matter!

Never give teenagers a prank day. Your just asking for trouble. Make them clean up the mess and pay for the damage.
I think the school should take responsibility also.. charge them also
Senior prank day has been around for decades so it’s not going anywhere. And the few bad kids shouldn’t be able to ruin it for everyone else. Especially when not allowing isn’t gonna stop the bad kids from doing it so what would be the point?
The report left a lot of questions. Waste of time .
No consequences! I'm surprised everyone didn't get a trophy for participating!
I wanted to see what they did
Students put chairs on top of desks? Oh, the humanity.

Did the school post a list of approved vs unapproved activity?
yes, along with the list of approved pro nouns. basically, as long as you didn’t say the n word and use approved pro nouns it was Thunderdome.
I remember when we had inoffensive and funny senior pranks like turning all of our desks backward 😊
The senior prank at my school for year 2000 was sending the principal on a day long quest through out the school tracking "sticky notes" while solving riddles, puzzles and math problems on those notes that would give a clue of where the next note or his goal would be.

It was different then, our school did this because everyone actually liked the guy. It was the assistant principal no student liked.
Allowing "Prank Day" is about as ridiculous as allowing student encampments.

Principal should be fired
All seniors have a senior skip day, a prank day, it’s up to the school and the children of that school to make sure boundaries are introduced for what is ok and what isn’t ok.
We have senior skip days and pranks for more than a decade 😂 we did them when I was in school 10 years ago❤ but it rarely and never ended with police.
It was usually stacks of chairs zip tied together in all the classrooms, cups of water in the hallways and down the classrooms, the principal car moved (not anywhere dangerous and somewhere easily able to move it back), I come from a small town where PD will often participate if u ask 😂❤ and our officer that always came to our school participated so this never occurred.
Tbh I blame the school. 😂❤️ lol
Edit:
To those of u being insulting: u wonder why ur children don’t know better when u act this way? It’s pretty obvious ITS YOU. 🤣👍 clean urself u, grow up, and develop some skills to speak to people and maybe ur kdis won’t be a menace to society lmao
I don’t care if u don’t like what I said. I don’t care if u don’t agree with me. I didn’t insult any of u… but u say here insulting me school, my intelligence… lmao it’s truly disgusting and I see nothing wrong with ur behavior and u wonder what’s wrong with ur children? ITS YOU and YOUR BEHAVIOR it’s starts with you parents…. Insulting someone else’s is Education is pretty disgusting
But just so ur aware my brother became an aeronautical engineer… I moved on to served army Intelligence after high school, my younger brother opened a financial services business… my friends all work government jobs or run businesses… some of my friends own houses in the one richest counties in the USA… lmao my best friend became a prosecutor for rape and violent offenders…. lol
Ur right my school probably taught us nothing… what do all of u do for work that makes u want ur kids to follow those footsteps instead? Have they had any guns in the school they attend? What about drugs? lol
But right u had space to talk about my school and my situation… but I have no room to talk about urs? lol
Let’s talk:
I never had a gun or drugs in my school lmao most of us actually lead successful pretty good lives lmao
The assumptions under my post about my school are disgusting but notice these r adults and parents and that’s how they choose to express their opinions and they expect THEIR CHILDREN to know better when the parents r sitting here doing the same BS 🤣 do better and grow up
@@lyssgoddess If it's an "official" event then it doesn't count in my book.
Our "skip days" were word of mouth and we got in trouble for it. Pranks just appeared out of nowhere and everyone had to guess who was responsible, stuff like that.
But I'm old now so times have obviously changed.
they already issued the approved pro nouns for the event so there was no turning back. but the approved pro nouns was the extent of the supervision.

School is not a social club, nor is it a Fraternity, nor a gang...But, wait....it is now. The school administration being a part of any thing like this is the problem. Of course the problems are bigger than this...We just need to start somewhere and chart a new course...like it is supposed to be...and was.
Fifty years ago (hard to believe) I received a public school education (I kid you NOT) and any of these activities that school admin is allowing now (supposed with 'limits' ) were not allowed (but most definitely did happen) and consequences were liberally applied with good effect.
We have to reclaim public schools as institutions of learning and not allow social experiments and societal destruction.
@@lyssgoddess No they don't, that means you went to a school who didn't care about your future. Everything is word of the mouth, and the school districts we had would expel you or take your diploma right from your hands.
Mistake#1: having an "approved senior prank day"
Didn't the vid say the school let them in after hours just so they could do their prank? Hold the people that let them in responsible as well, give them the same $50 fine and 2 hours community service.
My thought is 17 , 18 year olds have been given education on responsibility , what things -labor costs , consequences for behavior , prank meaning vs vandalism.. In 1970 1 of ours was toilet paper , shaving cream , pour a bunch of BRUT cologne in wast baskets.. Small , not serious effects..
What were these so-called 'approved' activities ?
50 bucks and 2 hours of community service????
Totally worth it
It was my junior year in high-school, but someone in my class pulled a 'prank' where he took a large amount of condiments pockets and just squirted them all over one of the boys bathroom. This was done on a Friday, so it wasn't discovered until the following Monday.
I didn't see the inside of the bathroom, but you could smell rancid manyoaise coming from it, and one teacher who saw it said it was pretty bad.
Anyway my entire class was gathered in the cafeteria and the perpetrator was given a chance to confess. The person didn't of course but one of the teachers knew exactly who it was. A few days later I found out it was who the teacher suspected. Anyway, from then on, the school never provided condiments packets, only just squirt bottles and you were allowed only so much on your plate or food.
The goober who did it was this kid who thought he was the class clown. He never tried being one after that ever again.
Someone give these guys a medal!
based on what y’all showed my class was WAY WORSE. post it notes covered the hall, all chairs in the gym, slip n slide on the top floor, chickens, toilet paper, etc. LMFAO. they cleaned it all up in a few hours, us seniors had skip day the day after so we didn’t have to and nobody got in trouble💀
School really said “haha that’s funny now here’s the bill…”
Someone poured some hardcore weed killer from their family's farm onto the lawn outside the principal's office window, and for the next three years, he was reminded that 86 ROCKS. There were also some random animal explorers who showed up in the gym at basketball games. The track n field equipment garage located at the entrance of school got covered in 86s one night. The guys who did it got caught and had in school suspension until they got the whole thing repainted...they were out three days. We mostly put 86s everywhere. People were finding 86s hidden in crazy places as far as 5 years later, with people asking "how did they get there there?"
I remember Senior pranks decades ago you broke in did your thing. Then come back the next day to see your handy work. You usually operated by yourself because you can't trust anyone
Where were the supervision 🤔😳✅️
Your child is bad just admit it
@@Vbooker50 they will not admit to shit
@@Vbooker50this does not mean “bad child” excuse ME. They are children. Shush they are still learning this is only vandalism. If they had actually hurt someone sure but no they just damaged property and it probably wasn’t their intent. Their intent was a joke on their school not to hurt anyone or cause this. Intent matter and motive matters for ur crime ✌️
@@mattschehr163intent and motive for crime matters he doesn’t understand the law clearly.
Innocents is no excuse for breaking the law. However, I think the sentence or punishment should reflect that also. Minors that committed vandalism but they were only trying to prank their school and that prank went too far. They r children still learning Boundaires and such. ❤ this was just one of those bad choices they have to learn from. I feel sorry they had to make such a bad choice to learn it tho. ✌️ he is not educated ignore him dear ❤
probably trying to get dates with the students
did have senior prank day when I went to HS (73 graduate! we did have ditch day, however!!
For our senior prank day we bought a beat up 100 euro car disassembled it then reassembled it on the roof, memorable yes, destructive or disruptive no
My senior prank was getting even with two guys who bullied me endlessly when they were taking a shower after PE I noticed their lockers were open. No one else was in the bathroom so I grabbed all their clothes and took them no one in the gym but two girls knew they would not say anything so took them outside to the dumpster and threw them on
Did they find someone to loan them some clothes, or were they in their birthday suits the rest of the day?
@@ILGuy2012 do not know went to the far side of the campus
excellent.
I graduated in 1994. We never did a senior prank, I guess we respected our school more then.
Prank Day is the stupidest thing. The fact that this school allows this, tells ppl they don't take education seriously.
When I was a senior in the 80s we seniors TP’d the quad. A few years ago I taught at a school where the seniors put super glue in all the locks. I guess you could argue we paved the way, but feels extreme.
When I was in school, prank day consisted of leaving a ton of army men all over the school. It was actually awesome, because everyone took home a ton of army men. Some of them were even in mock battles.
We didn't really do a "prank day" we had our fair share of normal pranks; TP a room, tape a door, etc. All easy stuff for us to clean up afterward, but what made it fun was the teachers, principal, and administration were all good sports about it, and having that balance allowed it to be fun without going "overboard". Big tradition for our school was a "Senior Skip Day" where all the seniors just skipped class, again though it was a well-known tradition administration usually knew the date, and just accepted it and went along with it.
They should press charges for those that went too far. I appreciate the mom's response. Not all of the students did it so I appreciate that they were told they weren't charged. Those that did should pay. It wasn't that much. Wait until college, then there are fines for glow people treat a dorm!
what ever happened to the simple things, like all the seniors paying for their lunches with pennies??
Senior prank day? It was skip day when I was a kid. What better prank? No one showed up!
Some seniors in my class camped out in tents on the front lawn one night at the end of the year. It seems fun and cool, but they (I would say it was about a fourth of the entire class participated maybe? I did not) ended up having *too* much fun and trashed the lawn. They left garbage and other things just laying there. The principal sent an email saying he's very disappointed and that he has camera footage of all who were there and if they don't come forward and say they were there, they would not be able to participate in the graduation ceremony. They must have "turned themselves in" because I didn't notice anyone missing from the ceremony. A few years before me, the senior class' prank was to bring their dogs to school. They were told pretty quickly they had to bring them back home, but I thought that was cute and funny, and harmless too.
Heck our class just put a few cows on the football field for prank day. Harmless, Funny, And the turf gets fertilized! And some angry football players. 😂
What the heck is an approved senior prank? What school district would approve a prank?!? Imagine being a custodian and your administrator is like, “So, yeah. I told a few hundred kids they could come make a mess in the school. Have fun cleaning it up.”
I am wondering about this too. No "approved pranks" during my high school days in the 1980s.
Whatever happened to just hiring a Mariachi Band to follow the principal around?
What is the point of all this destruction? We had Senior Ditch Day. No destruction involved.
My class hid huge speakers around campus and played Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up the entire day.
Never had this or even THOUGHT about this growing up with a 1st generation American Dad!!! Whatever these kids did DESERVES max punishment
My class of 2016 we weren’t allowed to do a prank if we did we wouldn’t be allowed to graduate
Why on earth would students be left unsupervised in the building after school to do a “prank”? That is insane! What were they thinking?
We adults cannot be children’s friends when we are at our jobs
What could go wrong?
My senior prank was the most devious one ever. To this day, no one ever discovered what we did.
Sounds like there was no plan of something cute to do so they just went wild, tearing things up
That wasn't a prank, that's straight up vandalism.
That stuff wasn’t allowed or sanctioned when I went to school. Even if it was, my PTSD suffering military father would’ve torn me a new one if I’d participated. Besides, any screwups would’ve barred me from being able to walk at commencement ceremonies as well as Grad Nite, which was overnight at Disneyland. I also thought to myself, “What will be more memorable? Ditching class to go get fast food across the street from campus or being able to hear my parents cheer for me while I received my diploma?” The answer was obvious.
"A few bad apples." Where have we heard that before? Don't let them off the hook!
We built a series of concrete block walls around the school as part of our pranks. We were careful to lay down plastic and plywood so nothing would get damaged, not even a scratch on the vinyl floors.
Never heard of senior pranks until a few years ago. I'm genx and we never had that foolishness in our school or surrounding schools.
They let the kids in to prank on approval?! Um thats not a prank. Kids these days just don't understand mischief. 😂
The blind leading the blind
Who's the stupid genius that lets him have senior prank day
"Approved" pranks aren't pranks.
My school didn't allow a senior prank
0:44 Someone give these kids a medal! 🤣
If you want to pull a good student prank, turn to Fred and George Weasley. 😏
The class one year ahead of mine ruined things for my class. Someone "leaked" info about their senior skip day event, and the school principal took 3 empty school buses to the nearby beach and forced all the students to get on the buses and go back to school (leaving the kid's vehicles and gear still at the beach). That put an end to their follow-up prank day -- as well as all future prank days.
Some seniors got a cow to go up to the 2nd floor one year. Another year a greased pig set loose. A skunk one year, that was horrible, lol. Snakes in the girls bathroom as well. Things got crazy at my high school.
My class back in the 80s removed all the toilets from one of the buildings and lined them up on the front lawn
How can the students be sentence to a fine and community service without first being convicted of a crime in a court of law? They should sue the school district for violating their right to due process of law under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
our Senior prank was putting a sportscar in the hallway. it made such a stir but nothing was damaged
We wasnt allowed in the building and was told whatever mess we made we had to clean up ours went over really well and we had fun
When I was a senior in high school back in 2014 I don't recall any senior pranks or anything like that. But if I were to do a senior prank I'd have my classmates and I hide near one of the classrooms and when the teacher would walk out of the room I'd have my classmates and me walk in to the room and go to our seats and act like nothing happened after the teacher would walk back in. That's what I'd do for a senior prank.
In 2004, the senior prank at my school was the seniors stole the inflatable Shrek from Burger King and put in on the football stadium bleachers. It was awesome. Shrek was eventually returned to BK. lol
Our local high school was filled with toads. Seniors collected them and released them EVERYWHERE in the school. And that did not sit well. Harsh punishments were handed out. That was ten years ago. Boy times have changed.
You get permission to "steal"...
You stole...
Now, your in trouble for the permission granted...
Wholesome.
All my friends where a yr a head of me. I didn't even show up to my classes because I already knew I'd be watched super closed after the yr befor😂😂
They use to watch me cuper close on April fools day
By 9th grade they were told not to come to school that day
Little pranks are fun, like making slight messes of certain classrooms, leaving appropriate items around, stuff like that, stuff that won't cause harm, stuff that everyone will have a good laugh about at the end of the day, but Full-On vandalism and that kind of stuff is not okay
“It went too far”. Well, there you go.
Who thinks a senior prank day is a good thng?
NOT ME!
Pretty stuid thing and was never even thiught of when I graduated high school in 1960!
A few students chose vandalism instead of pranking. Bad students ruin the fun for all students.
my dad is a retired high school principal. The last school he was principal of the staff had heard rumors that students were planning to have a big senior prank on one weekend. There was a video productions class at the school and There was an assembly that friday so he told the video productions teacher to have video cameras there to film the assembly and told the teacher to tell the students who were film to have a lot of film of the crowd. That night 5 students wearing masks broke into the main building and trashed it they caused thousands of dollars in damage. The whole thing was caught on the video surveillance. They got caught quickly because they were wearing the same clothes that they wore to school that day which was seen in the video of the assembly
“I think consequences come with actions.”
I remember in my high school, a bunch of students brought their dogs. They weren't allowed inside and had to take them home.
My year got fucked over because of the seniors the year before
At my senior prank day two people were shot. It was a riot!
Fortunately, back in my day...there were NO cameras....but we STILL didn't do vandalism!
At least some asked permission, make them clean it up. Nothing compared to the school pranks we did back in day.
