Ohhh, school years are the ones everybody remembers. Some of us really enjoyed this time, while for some of us it was the worst years ever; however, if somebody pranked or teased the teacher, everybody in the class would laugh. Even if you are also like me and you didn’t enjoy your school years at all, it may still be fun to remember some of the moments. Although it was disappointing to find out that films about high school are not really relatable, a few moments could make you feel like you were in a film. At least funny moments that included pranking teachers.
Now, speaking of hilarious moments, folks in this online thread share funny things that happened in their schools and caused complete chaos in the whole faculty. Here you can find 42 of the most insane ones that may make you wonder if all schools have similar rules.

Hired a mariachi band to follow around our principal for our senior class prank. It was hysterical.

Senior prank when I was about 14, 15...the graduating class that year decided to get pounds and pounds and pounds of confetti...literally pounds...I have no idea how they got so much...and a ladder, or something...and they climbed up and poured it all down the pipes of the school organ in the assembly hall. Filled everything right up. Every single pipe.
Come assembly-time two hours later, and it's confetti snow ALL OVER THE PLACE when the organ starts playing. Apparently the boys got permission from the school music teacher/organist to pull off the prank because they were throwing out that old organ, anyway - but he didn't tell anybody else, so the other teachers were losing their s**t while confetti is flying all over the place.

One time, in 1st grade, when the teacher left the room for 5 minutes, i scotch taped all of my classmates together. They loved it. My teacher came back, had a breakdown, and called my mother in tears. “He did what?” My mom asked. “He ***taped*** his classmates ***together***!”
“Is that all…?” My mom replied. Bless her.

They banned shorts because they were not professional enough. So all the boys wore skirts as a protest.

We managed to pull off an insane senior prank that took a month to prepare without anyone spoiling it. We switched with others for the whole day. Everyone switched with one other person, didn't have to be reciprocated.
We had little cheat sheets on where we sat in each class, and what is going on in the class. We dressed like the other person, went to all their classes, used their name, and would not back down that we were someone else. A lot of us got our parents involved so when the admin tried to call our parents, they went along with the ploy.
It got so bad the superintendent got involved, and we ended up having an impromptu half-day and just sent everyone home. More than a few of the staff *threw* (edited for autocorrect) very loud fits.
We kept up the whole thing up for the rest of the year that we never switched places with someone else, and everyone was just remembering the day wrong.

One of the classrooms at my school was a prefab hut, and over time it developed a hole in the floor at the back of the room (developed, or was helped, unsure).
Every lesson I had in there for a good few months before they fixed it, someone would arrive, greet the teacher, and sit down.
Then after a few minutes they'd arrive again, straight-faced "sorry I'm late sir", and sit down.
Then again a few minutes later they'd arrive again... etc
The fun part was watching the teacher playing the memory game of figuring out who'd arrived too many times.

For one of our senior pranks, 20-30 of us bought about 5,000 bouncy balls, and threw them off the balcony overlooking the cafeteria during lunch. There were about 100-200 kids eating and they all flipped out. It was pure anarchy.
As we were running away, the campus security guard tackled one of the girls in the hallway. Took her to the office and she ratted on all of us. We all got a $200 fine for trespassing since we did it after graduation and had someone let us in the side door of the school. Cat, if you're reading this, it may be 15 years later but we still haven't forgotten. You owe me $200.
Edit: funny enough I looked up the snitch on Facebook just for s***s and giggles and her job? F*****g security guard. Can't make this s**t up.

A class above mine was legendary for a VERY simple senior class prank: someone who lived on a farm brought their resident goat in. They snuck it in through the side door into the parking lot from the weight room and just let ol' Billy loose.
What followed was a couple hours of chaos as this goat ran all over the building, dropping goat poop and yelling at everyone who tried to catch it. You haven't had hilarious until you've heard the principal blurt out from outside the door "Corner him! No the OTHER way, the OTHER way! DAMN IT where's a lasso when you need one?! C'mere you little son of a b*tch!"
Billy the Goat was eventually cornered and caught, and the kid who did it got a decent scolding and a detention and a whole lot of laughter from his classmates and several teachers, who were just happy nothing got vandalized that year.

In middle school, a staff (not a teacher, he watched lunch and was a basketball coach for a high school) got arrested for selling [illegal substance] to the kids. He won an award for "best staff of the year" that year which had an entire yearbook page dedicated to him, but he was arrested after the yearbooks were printed. They had to go into each yearbook and cover that page with purple duct tape (to match the color scheme).
Prior to him being arrested, I was getting bullied horribly. None of the teachers or other staff could get the kids to stop, but once the staff who was arrested said "leave Spencer alone," the kids would immediately stop. I later realized he was threatening to take their [illegal substance] away if they bullied me, and that's why he was the only one who could get them to stop.

This very quiet guy who never really caused any trouble at all saved up the mice that he fed to his boa constrictor and dyed them various festive colors with Easter egg dye. He then came to school in a trench coat in which he’d cut out the pockets and, basically, filled it up with the live, colorful mice. Every once in a while, he’s stop and drop a few out when no one was looking. In the classrooms, the lunch room, the labs etc.
It took him most of the morning but, eventually, we’d all hear screaming every few minutes from all directions.
This was before mass school shootings so; it was hilarious at the time.

2000. Teachers trying to stop kids smoking in the bathroom so they locked the bathroom doors. Kid took a s**t on the carpet in front of the bathroom door, like right in the main hallway. Chaos ensued. Today, that kid is a pastor. Lol

Senior prank: The country guys brought greased pigs into the school. Labeled them with spraypaint #1, #2, #3, #5, #6, #7.
Imagine the frantic radio calls and locations of where pigs were located one by one.
Took them a whole day of diving around wrangling pigs until they figured out pig #4 didn't exist.

Somebody unscrewed the classroom door and left it supported by the hinge tension, angry teacher came back from his march to the head of department and slammed the door.
Except it didn't slam, rather come off the wall completely and absolute madness ensued.
Ahh, good times.

Someone put a cow on the roof. The cow couldn’t come back down because, apparently, cows can’t go down stairs. So they had to bring it down… with a crane.

A classmate brought a VHS tape of Bambi to class. It was movie day, elementary school.
Turns out they swapped the stickers for Bambi and The Scorpion King. Teachers put the movie on and left...they might have never known if one of the kids hadn't run off to tell them halfway through the movie.
I still think you're a party pooper, Marie, we were basically almost done 🙄 teachers never got anyone in trouble tho lmao

When my husband was about 11, he brought a 5-gallon bucket of garter snakes to school for show and tell. At lunch, all the snakes escaped, and they were catching snakes for weeks

A boy in my class brought some locusts in to show and tell. They escaped and got into the air vents. This was just before summer break.
School came back to a full on plague.
