1. Chicken in the Halls
If you want your graduation class to pull off one of the most memorable senior year pranks, it is always a good idea to incorporate animals. For example, a group of seniors can chip in and purchase two chickens once graduation is in sight. Label them with ‘number 1’ and ‘number 3’, and set them free to roam the halls. Once the school faculty learns about the intruders, they will spend forever searching for the non-existent chicken ‘number 2’.

When pulling off this clucking caper, communication and timing are key. Securing your feathered friends from a local farm or pet store ahead of time allows for a seamless release. Just be sure to care for the chickens’ well-being, ensuring they are safe and unharmed during their brief stint as pranksters. After the wild goose – or rather chicken – chase, it’s important to come clean with a confession. Not only does it relieve the staff, but it also ensures a good laugh and a story that will echo through the school's corridors for years to come.
2. Post-its Everywhere
To pull off this prank, you need the cooperation of the entire senior class. Everyone should bring in a number of packs of post-its to school and cover the halls from top to bottom. You can even get creative and spell out the year of your graduating class using post its and write messages for other people to read!

When planning this colorful escapade, coordination is key. Pre-dawn set-up is the perfect time to execute, as you will have the element of surprise on your side. Ensure there is a variety of bold hues for maximum impact, and consider assigning areas to avoid duplication. It's important to be respectful and avoid blocking essential signage or safety equipment. If you're feeling especially ambitious, create a post-it mural on a prominent school wall or spell out a good-humored, but school-appropriate message. Remember, the goal is to leave a lasting impression that’s all in good fun.

In order to raise the school spirit, work together with your graduating class to fill the halls with hundreds of balloons! Leave no space empty! Not only will the school look pretty, but it is also less likely to get you into trouble than some of the other prank ideas.

You can choose balloons in the school colors to show some extra class pride, or go wild with a rainbow of colors. Imagine the halls, classrooms, and common areas bursting with color—what a way to walk to your final classes! Coordinate a time and get everyone to bring a pack of balloons; maybe even turn it into a bonding event. Just remember, while you want to fill every nook and cranny, be mindful of latex allergies among your peers and consider using Mylar balloons as an alternative. This way, your prank is inclusive and avoids any health concerns.
7. Put Ketchup in Soap Dispensers
If you would like to execute the senior prank on a much smaller scale, why not mess with the school bathrooms? Just choose a liquid of your own choice, for example ketchup and replace all of the soap dispensers with it. It is a harmless but yet interesting prank that will get everyone talking.
Senior pranks are very hard to pull off without getting everyone into serious trouble. Therefore while trying to have fun and leaving behind memories, make sure to take precautions! You know your school staff better than I do, so avoid doing things that will take away your privileges and instead do something you can all find humor in.
