We have played a ton of pranks on the notorious Karen Chapman. Everything from inching our tables towards hers during class until she looks up and has a minor panic attack, to stealing lawn ornaments out of her yard and placing them on her desk in the morning. She has a thing for students being in her classroom unsupervised so her punchline is "This door does not close". There was an event very close to an anurism hen one day we all answered in unison "yes it does." The next day she found the door taken off it's hinges and placed in the middle of the room with the words "THIS DOOR DES NOT CLOSE" spray painted on both sides.

What pranks have you pulled on teachers, students, or other faculty in your school careers?

well the year12 students at my school stole a portable whiteboard, drew a really scary picture and wrote random things all over it and put it in the staff toilet.

i was there when the first teacher went in, a certain teacher who gets scared easily (known from past experience), she screamed and ran out with like everyone laughing at her...

was a good prank except they couldnt get the whiteboard out for ages!

Boy, I thought I was bad boy for throwing crayons in the teachers hair and not getting caught. I also was the one to look out for in the 1970's. Anything I could do, crazily, I did it. Now I feel blameful, for carrying on the mischiefness.

Hmmm... i'm a Senior right now in Highschool... i was just wondering what i could do for my prank... some of the ones that were done to my school is that they super glued all the locks so no teachers could get in. (they had to blow torch the locks to get it out) Another was that they poured honey all over campus and put bird seed all over so it stuck to the honey, now that was funny when all the birds came. Another one was they painted some of the school pink... not alot but it was really stupid. I'm just wondering what i should do for my prank... maybe moving all the tables up to the roofs.

I don't have anything to say..... I just don't.

In kindergarden, I took one of those plastic golf clubs, hit a stacking block, and struck my teacher in the head. She looked up and I pointed to the kid next to me and said he did it!!!

As for high school, I went to Hargrave Military Academy, which was run by the Marin Corps. no less...so teacher pranks were out of the question!!! LOL They would probably kill you in your sleep or something like that. One time one of our tack officers (which is like a dorm parent in college) hit the deck because two idiots blew up a big fire cracker in the bathroom. Now let me paint the picture for you: Sgt. Major Rogers, a retired Force Recon Marine from the Viet Nam era (Force Recon Marines go through Army Ranger school, Navy Seal school, USAF Pararescue school, ect...the man drove a red Jeep Cherokee with the license plate "KILLER"...I think Sylvester Stallone played a Force Recon Marine in Rambo if that gives you a better picture) Those two idiots were made to march back and forth on Company Street in their full parade uniform carrying those HEAVY WWII M-1 rifles during our 3-4 precious hours of free time everyday for the rest of the school year. So I guess you could say I was good in high school.

Now pranks and hazing amongst ourselves, the students, that's a whole other can O'beans...

[Guest]

Hmm I assisted in two pranks. The first was with the schools Visual and performing arts academy's head teacher. A lot of us had him for all 4 years of school so he was chill with us. well some of the students were "volunteering" to clean out our shed to make room for more "supplies". This isn't a small shed, it's one of those big industrial you-can-put-a-couple-small-cars-in-it type. So while he ran to the office to get something. I took his car keys off his desk, my friend drove his car into the shed, we locked it, I put the keys back when i got them, and we watched in amusement later on in the day when he realized his car was missing.

The other one was when we took all the lunch benches and stacked them in a pyramid about 10 high in the beginning of the school year....They had them chained down over winter break

I just hope your school has the budget to replace what is ruined. Dont destroy anything or the money will be taken out of a popular activity budget.....prom, senior ditch day, etc.

Also make sure there is no way you could get in trouble like lowering a grade or something going on your record, suspended..

Have it be fun, not scary. That being said I dont know of any senior pranks but my father was a HS history and archeology teacher and he pulled pranks on the

administration all the time. I cant say cause I dont want him in trouble..

[Guest]

We've done a few good ones in the last 2 days.

~Called her name when she was facing the board. When she turns around and says "yes" no one answers. She ends up going crazy

~ We inch our desks toward her every time she's not looking. When she realizes it we're practically on her. When she asks we say we found them like this

~ No one says a word the whole class period and stares straight forward with a dazed expression. When the teacher finally asks what's going on EVERYONE stands up beside their desks and mumbles "education"

I so applaud you on these! Great!

As for what my father has done..

when red and blue were verboten during the 80's he and his other friend teachers wore the colors themselves. Shoe laces, belts, shirts, etc.

Same with hairnets, all of them wore those too. I dont know how he didnt get shot. this was in LA, ca

[Guest]

Another is when one of these pranks go wrong and someone rats on the people that participated, every one wears a certain color shirt. EVERYONE in the whole school, except the rat. Then no one talks to them the whole day.

*cruel, but some things need to be done.

ouch that is cruel, but what if you have a school of over 3000 students? Thats a bit hard to do.

[Guest]

haven't really done any pranks myself to my recollection but at the boys' school next door to our school, the leavers usually pull a prank. I think the year before last, they took a Mini apart and reassembled it around the school flagpole and years back some of them sprayed something bad in this grassy area (sacred sod, as it's called) in weedkiller which was cool as it only showed up few days later and they were home free! so i'm told.

Ah true that. My highschool had 48 freshman and 84 Sophmores. That was it.

You could pick a specific class to do it on?

We also did a variation of this for our school. You dig your graduating class's number into a patch of grass and fill it with cement. It's impossible to get out.

As a teacher, I could never condone pulling pranks on your teachers, but we always had a few at school from the leavers. There was, of course, stories of people taking apart cars and rebuilding them on the roof or suchlike. And the rather extreme one's like creosoting rude words into the cricket green or headmaster's lawn!

Boarding schools (in the UK at least) mean lots of pranks as we're all at school anyway. For the last fortnight of term we used to have security guards brought in to try to stop us trashing the school. I remember breaking in to one of the other boys houses and cling-filming the toilets - totally invisible and makes a real mess! We also had a topper (small dinghy) fully rigged in the main hall but my best one never worked:

I spend a week shredding scrap paper into confetti and climbed up onto a flat roofed building next to my boarding house. Several black bin liners, which we weighed down in each corner, covered the confetti and each weight was attached to a piece of string which led over the edge of the roof to where we could reach it. The following day was Speech Day - all the parents are there to see their child receive a prize and after there's a garden party in front of the building. We walk up, pull the string to pull away the bin liners and it snowed confetti all over the parents, staff and students! Fantastic, or it would have been, had there been any wind! Unfortunately, my flawless design was thwarted by the weather and only a few flakes made it over the edge onto everyone below. Gutted, as it had been windy all week!

haha nice work

just remembered how we always used to try and engineer it so we'd all drop our pencils or cough or do something stupid at the same time, never really worked, though.

Yeah thats a bit hard to do, you have to time it perfectly and everyone has to do it... involves to much planning and work for me... i want something big but not big as in trouble... just something that would be remembered

I don't remember the exact circumstances, but as I recall it, my dad told me a story about a popular principal being fired at his high school, so a number of them printed out posters of the principal and one night snuck in and posted them all over the place. This was not necessarily all over the walls, sometimes they put them behind other things and my dad said that it's possible that people could still be finding them behind old paintings and posting boards and things even today.

Doing something like that might not be terribly memorable, but it would be long-lasting (and often rediscovered years later )

[Guest]

Also along the lines of dawh's story: a "pran" to pull if you want to be remembered is the book mark million. It's not really a pranks and you can't get in trouble for it. You print of thousands of tiny book marks and place them in every book in the library. Years and years later people will still be fiding them
