Apparently senior pranks are now a crime, including the non-destructive, non-harm-inducing ones.
THEY'RE FRICKIN' STICKY NOTES, YOU IDIOT!
No levity allowed in the new america! Nein!
My daughters class dropped 2012 little bouncy balls from the second floor atrium. When the cleaning crew arrived, they were all gone (scarfed up by under classmen).
The rest? Sticky notes on lockers warrants calling out the cops? Are they insane?
Sticky notes are not “criminal damage.” Please. OTOH, being in the building after midnight, there’s not much they can do about charges of unlawful entry (even if they used a staff member’s key).
If the school and local authorities had any common sense, they’d just sentence the kids to a Saturday of hard cleaning and beautification work around the school campus and be done with it. Talking about criminal charges for sticky notes (and even vegetable oil) is just out of hand.

I bet if his La Raza pals did it, he wouldn’t have minded one bit.
There is so much wrong with this country.
If you want to know about malicious senior pranks, you should have run with my crowd back in ‘63.
When you cannot administrate - be a PUBLIC SCHOOL administrator.
When you cannot teach - be a PUBLIC SCHOOl teacher.
When you cannot do anything - be a democrat.
Oops, lost the thrust there.......
Getting back to schools, the word is PRIVATE SCHOOL - where the fools aren’t.

At Xavier HS (a Jesuit/military school in NYC) in 1966, a teacher’s Cooper Mini found its way up the steps from the street to the lobby.
In the early 1940s my dad and some friends tied up a mule in the girl’s bathroom one halloween night. They just wanted to scare the girls the next day. However, the mule got loose and went all over the school letting loose a flood of diarrhea and dragging it around with the rope. School was cancelled the next day and the next day an assembly was called with the mayor, the sheriff and several local preachers. Speeches were made and the students were urged to confess. No one ever did until many years later.
I guess they should have used spray paint...
This country has gone mad.
Apparently, Mountain View has too many police officers and too little crime. Perhaps they should reduce the force by 50% and save the school district’s taxpayers a bundle. Then perhaps the 50% that were still employed would tell the busy-bodies who call in non-crimes such as this that this is not a police matter but a school administrator’s problem.
HA!!! We did that too (1986). VP had a LeCar and we put it in the hallway outdside the locker rooms and filled it with ballons. It was AWESOME!
Every now and then at Gonzaga Univ., a VW Beetle was parked in front of the doors of the Crosby Library.
Regarding the prank in question, if the sticky notes were made from recycled paper, then it's no big deal IMHO. ;^)
Not insane,, they just have the intellect that is now a non optional requirement to work for the public schools
A manure spreader (large farm implement) was brought into the main administrative building and placed in front of the entrance of the chapel.
At the time the college was primarily teachers, church workers, and pre-seminary students!
