Pranks *should* be harmless and fun. Annoyance? Sure. Anger to the point of serious punishment? You went too far, and that’s a bad prank.

Who gets angry over a simple email.

And stop telling women to stop doing things because it might make someone angry. We are not responsible for other people’s irrational emotions.

Student pranks - email or otherwise, no one said what the girls did - should not make administrators so mad they revoke all privileges. That’s a sign you went too far far. Regardless of student gender, which has nothing to do with it.

So what was the prank?

The prank was an unauthorized senior skip day and the Administration's response has been completely excessive and punitive, taking away all senior privileges and traditions. Never seen such an overreaction by a school administration.

This. Why won't those of you that know just tell us what the big deal was about the email?

Thanks PP. I was typing this as you were posting.

Not sure an unauthorized senior skip day counts as a prank (what's the funny part?), but that does sound like a complete overreaction.

Holton or Stone ridge? I can’t imagine administrators from either one crying over this!

The head of SR can turn on the tears at any moment.

The girls had an unauthorized skip day which the administrators deemed disrespectful and revoked all senior privileges and traditions. Really makes you question the competence of the administrators. Clearly they do not understand reasonable consequences.

Don’t they get an authorized senior skip day? Why would they organize an unauthorized one? That’s not really a prank. And what did they expect the response to be?

Wow. That is a very harsh reaction. Cool idea to do an unauthorised senior skip day

That is appalling. Seniors are done. College offers have been accepted. Why the heck shouldn’t they have a skip day?

My senior class (1980s) did a senior skip day (back then I don’t think any skip days were “authorized.” The administration was angry but they didn’t cancel the rest of the year. Didn’t even hand out demerits. We just got a lecture.

The administration’s reaction is beyond absurd and now they have told the parents to stay out of it- presumably because they have been inundated by angry parents for the last 24 hours.

At my HS right before summer ended and everyone went back to school, a painted outline of a dead body appeared on the front steps to the school.

(Nobody died. The concept was "I'd rather die than go back to school.")

Stay out of it? The adults are acting like petulant children.
