senior prank

Upperclassman farewell stunt

A senior prank is a mischief tradition where graduating high school or college students play a prank on their school near the end of the year.

These range from harmless stunts like releasing farm animals in hallways or covering a principal's car in sticky notes to more destructive acts that can result in suspension or criminal charges: The senior prank got out of hand when someone spray-painted the gym.
