30 Stories Of How Something Chucklesome Happened In School And It Spiraled Out Of Control, As Shared Online
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.

It happens every year in the UK in the summer, the boys borrow skirts from friends or siblings because it's too hot inside school buildings to be in trousers.

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.

Our teacher had a smart ( little car) and we managed to get it up to the third floor and put it In front of her classroom.

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
#13
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.

This one's got a long beard. I already encountered it with monkeys, parrots, cats, snakes, you name it.

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.

this girl in year 9 wrote a very explicit fanfic about two male maths teachers and EVERYBODY had either read it or knew about it. the two teachers couldn’t look at each other for weeks after that.
#16
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.
#17
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
#19
I remember when we all brought our dogs to school for show-and-tell. Chaos and cuteness overload!
#20
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.

We stuck a car in the school corridor. In my last week of school, i realised one of the other kid’s Fiat Unos was so slim that it would fit through the rear double doors, as well as through multiple tight gaps and gates and there was a clear path down to one of the main thoroughfares (i think i measured each gap about 4times)
Me and a mate got the keys off the owner, who wanted plausible deniability, pushed it down and then locked it, put full lock and then triggered the steering lock (which was a touch of genius on my mate’s part) and walked off. Unfortunately, about 30mins later someone else then came and turned the radio on full blast where we had left a window open to be able to push it without sitting in it - so we had to leg it back and ‘pretend’ to find the keys in a corner and say ‘we’ll get it out’. Which was easier said than done now upwards of 50 kids and 10 teachers (many of which i’m proud to say looked a bit impressed) now surrounded it
But because we got it out, and then vanished for lunch, we got away with it completely
Sadly both my mate and the car’s owner died a few years later through accident and illness, but i’m glad to say i know it was us, and it was a good one

I was in elementary school. All the 4th graders were lined up on stage to rehearse our act for the annual musical performance, which was a show tune called "white gloves" or something. They gave us all white cotton gloves to wear, wave, and clap with. At the end of rehearsal, the music teacher stood in front of us with a box and said "OK, throw your gloves into the box".
We complied. Enthusiastically. Six dozen white gloves were flung in her general direction. The situation devolved into chaos in mere seconds, as we started picking up gloves and throwing them at each other like snowballs. The teacher was standing there with the ultimate look of "I should not have said that" on her face.
It took two other teachers five minutes to restore order, and no one got in trouble as our music teacher did in fact admit that she should not have given that instruction.

During a talent show at school, a magician's escaped rabbit caused chaos as faculty members scrambled to catch it, leading to an entertaining and memorable situation.

I went to school in Brooklyn in the early 2000s, extremely overcrowded high school. They started having armed nypd police in the building not one or two im talking like closer to 8 with a mobile precinct infront of the school. They were kicking kids out everyday and they wanted to take our fitteds and phones, not just for the day but permanently.
This led to the student body president calling for a protest and faculty agreeing to announce it over the PA system and say everyone who wants to attend can…lol big mistake. School capacity was about 2000 kids I think? There was about 5000 kids enrolled in that school, 90% of the kids decided to go to the auditorium which obviously couldn’t fit everyone, for the protest. It was so packed when the crowd jumped and chanted “hell no we won’t go” I think? If you was in the crowd your body moved with the crowd.
Kids started jumping on stage,destroying s**t,pushing the faculty off the stage and they ran to hide, they started to throw all the debris around, a mic stand I think hit the lady who was from board of ed and s**t went crazy after that…everyone started to push their way out the building and into the very busy New York streets where atleast 1000 students started to run on the parked cars causing damage to many. The news channels were there, the reporters and camera crew had to run cause they started to grab the cameras and push them around.
That school as it was, no longer exists, I was the last graduating class. They turned into like a bunch of smaller schools I think today.
Not funny at all. But caused major chaos not only in the school but the whole neighborhood.
Me and my little group had our hookie party and got drunk the rest of the days.
Kids these days get a lot of criticism, but it’ll never come from me. We were f*****g stupid back then compared to these kids today.

In my HS, there was a solid week where somebody set a trash can on fire daily. Nobody knew if it was one person or a group of people, but I think after day five everyone got pretty tired of having to stand out in the football field while the fire department inspected the area.
It stopped after that week with no explanation and no word from the culprit.
Second best was definitely the senior prank performed by the class two years ahead of mine. They bought crickets from our local PetSmart and set them free on our school’s main staircase. It took forever to get rid of them and I can remember sitting in class and hearing faint chirping coming from seemingly every direction.
two-sided llama 1 year ago
they said on a full moon's night you can still hear the chirpings of the crickets. ( but not llamas for some reason llama + school = school drowing in spit)

In chemistry - the teacher had just gotten a new batch of sodium and dropped a piece that was definitely too big into a large clear container filled with water but hey… I was a sophomore so what did I know, right? Welp… a second later the container of water burst and there was a hole in the ceiling. So bravo, my friend
#27
I did not know the amount of chaos this would cause. I did the whole bubble bath in the pool trick. Since our schools pool was huge I used some cheap. cheap, 99cent store bubble bath that probably should have been illegal cause the amount of bubbles 1/4 cup caused could fill a bathroom if you weren't careful. I used an entire large gym bag full. For a weekend that s**t got churned up every time the pumps kicked in. Eventually the safety system kicked in and started topping off the pool since so much water was being removed by the bubbles. The school smelled like cheap bubble bath for weeks, and this was an outdoor pool in a west coast city, so all very open not a indoor high school. Pool was closed for months as they had to keep purging the system with anti foam agents. Wash and rinse. Whole schools PE schedule had to be rewritten to adjust for having the pool closed. I couldn't take credit was supposed to be a prank turned into this massive investigation.
#28
A student got ahold of a LOT of explicit pictures and taped them to all of the school clocks, suspended from the ceiling. None of the teachers were tall enough to pull them down, so they were up there for a bit.

Our P.E. teacher putting us in wrestling moves in the boys locker room. The school was not best pleased when it came to light and Neither were the parents.

We had a hard of hearing teacher for biology. One of the kids got a pen with recording capabilities for Christmas. Brought it into school, recorded “bird noises” (very obviously human voices but, she was hard of hearing…) hid it in the classroom and it played for the whole lesson. She was so sure there was a bird in the classroom that we lost a double lesson while she hunted through the lab. Best bit was she opened the cupboard where the pen was hidden, didn’t realise it was coming from the device, and moved on. Whole class were setting themselves laughing.

The graduating class 4 years ahead of mine (before I entered HS) was massively destructive with their pranks. Several students were banned from walking in graduation, more were fined, and the scars were present for years. Our graduating class had to convince the principal that they were going to do it right. One morning the front lawn was full of plastic forks. Just poking up out of the ground. Another was to have the name of every graduating student engraved on the spoons of the cafeteria (yeah, I took mine). Another prank was to put a sticky note on each locker, with encouragement. It was all very civilized.
