Well, it's that time of year again. Time to stash a dead fish
somewhere to stink up the school hallways. Time to drop tennis balls on
the heads of people in the lobby. Time to cover your soon-to-be alma
mater with Post-It notes.
For high school seniors, it's prank time _ or "structured mayhem" in the words of Mindy Utay, a therapist who works with teens.
It's a rite of passage as graduation looms, mostly harmless fun but
sometimes a escalating into vandalism. This spring alone, windows at
school have been smashed, walls and sidewalks spray painted, and paint
poured down steps. Cars have been flipped. Property has been damaged
from California to Kentucky to Maryland.

For our senior prank we moved all parking blocks in the parking lot into the shape of our abbreviated graduation year. The next day everyone came to school to see our symbol made in the parking lot our of parking blocks. It was a good laugh and then we put them back.
