26 Senior Pranks

i was talking to a friend recently about pranks, and it reminded me of an afternoon several of my classmates and i spent looking up senior pranks. Now, my school made it very clear that if you were caught in any kind of senior prank you would not be graduating. So we didn't get to actually do any of these.... but it's given me some great ideas for future sleepovers, camp, and... well, never mind. Forget i said anything.....

1 Alarm Clock Mayhem
Set alarm clocks to go off about 2 minutes from each other...hide them all around the school...in lockers, bathrooms, ceiling tiles, vents, ...

2 Sleepover
The entire senior class camps out in the front yard of the school....and sleeps in.

3 Letter Men
Everyone needs to get a t-shirt with a letter (or number) on it - you can make them with iron on decals. Just one big letter. Different colors, different styles, on the front or back. Throughout the day, stand near people making words in the hall...snap photos. So letters D, O, R, and K can run next to principal and quickly snap photo. They can't exactly make the whole class change, but they can however ask you put your shirt on inside out...so as a precaution, put another letter on the otherside...

4 State Flowers
In most states (check yours) it is illegal to dig up the state flower (or sometimes tree). So if you plant the state flower in the shape of your class year, then they cannot legally dig them up.

5 Tiny Bookmarks
Create thousands of tiny bookmarks saying something like Class of '0? - Senior Prank; or Class of '0? was Here. Put them in thousands of books in the library ... 10 years later people will still be finding them.

6 Parking Problems 1
Seniors, park your cars in a circle around the school...so close together that a person would have to climb over a car to get to the building.

7 Parking Problems 2
Seniors, park your cars in a maze shape nice and early making the faculty navigate through.

8 Swap for Diploma
Have everyone slip something into the principal's hand when you shake hands at graduation. Examples: a marble, a bouncy ball, a cigarette (if he smokes), a penny, a fortune cookie fortune, ..

9 For Sale By owner
Put real estate ad in newspaper offering the school for sale.

10 Cement Year
Dig a hole in the grass the shape of your year...then fill with cement.

11 Dixie Cups
Purchase 700-1000 paper dixie cups. Fill them up halfway with water. Flip them over and put them throughout all of the hallways. They will be hard to get off and once they're removed the water will come out!

12 Doorknobs
Rub Vaseline over the doorknobs so that when the bell rings everyone's hands will be slimy for the rest of the day. If your hand rails are yellow; get some mustard from the cafeteria and use that.

13 Tire Flagpole
Drop a bunch of used tires over the top of the flagpole.

14 Photoshop
Edit some photos of the principal to be funny - include your class year...distribute in bulk.

15 Saran Wrap
Get a bunch of rolls of saran wrap and wrap your principals car in a thin layer during school. When he/she gets out, they will not know what to do.

16 Used Car Lot
Turn the faculty parking lot into a used car lot, complete with balloons, salesmen in suits, window stickers, and soap drawn prices - if possible, get giant blow up animal.

17 Post-it Note Mayhem
Come in early enough so this will work- If there is a certain hall in your school, get a whole bunch of post-it notes and cover that hall with them entirely. Write a message on a few so people will stop and look at them, even spell out something on the floor. Then, around school, have various post-it notes labeling: Class of 0?- Post-it Bandits

18 Class Relocated
On a nice day, move all chairs outside in class size groups. Post a room number on each group. Inside, on the door of each classroom post note like "Class relocated to the flagpole". Report to class..outside.

19 Rubber Duckie
Put hundreds of Rubber Duckies in the school pool or a fountain, or on a pond.

20 Zip Tie/Cable Tie fun
Get a ton of zip ties(pretty cheap in bulk.) Get every desk, chair, or other mobile object and zip tie them to something that is solid and can't be lifted(i.e. a post, hand rail.) In my school the little rail on the second floor has a chain link type fence. Make sure to pull the zip tie as tight as possible to make for harder cutting off. If your really into it move on and get everyone's locker too.

21 Delivery
Order items from take out several take-out restaurants to be delivered to you at school - prepaid with credit card.

22 Anyone Got a Snow Machine?
If not...rent one. Snowballs on the front lawn!

23 Letters to the Staff
Send letters to the faculty and staff (at home addresses - look them up). Have the return address label be something funny...that may have a spouse or kid scratching their head. Add letter inside stating that your class shall not be forgotten. Return Address Possibilities: National Association of Overprotective Parents, Parents Wanting No Drama (PWND), The New Kakistocracy (kakistocracy means government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens)....

24 Marching Band
Get the marching band to do a special number...at an event or just during class...perhaps some rock music...hip hop

25 Bouncing Halls
Buy thousands of bouncy balls-of all sizes- and distribute them to many seniors. During a planned time period-Like between the first two periods so they will be there all day-dump them all over the halls and stairwells.

26 SNOW
Buy 40 pounds like 400 gallons of sodium polyartulate (fake snow) add water and it poofs up. put it all over the school. it is not wet but feels like snow.
