‘Harmless’ Senior Prank Gets Half of Texas High School’s Graduating Class Suspended

A Texas high school is facing backlash after administrators told half of the graduating class to put a fork in it and suspended them following what parents say was a “harmless” senior prank.

Approximately 40 seniors at Comfort High School, about 50 miles northwest of San Antonio, received two-week in-school suspensions for a prank that involved placing plastic forks all throughout the football field, NBC affiliate WOAI reported.

“It was a harmless senior prank that all of us parents knew 100 percent what was going on,” Hope Jay, who has two seniors at Comfort, told the outlet. “They had planned as a group, you know, 40 students, which is half the senior class… to fork the field, which is putting plastic forks in the dirt.”

Jay told WOAI that while many students stuck to forking the field, a smaller group went inside the school and placed things like balloons, Saran wrap and a crooked stag head inside.

“There’s been no damage, no destruction, no graffiti, no defacing of property and no police reports,” Jay told WOAI.

“There’s just no equity to the punishment,” he said. “You’re looking at your top 10 – you’re looking at your valedictorian, your salutatorian, and you’re looking at honor society kids. And this was a harmless prank that they were gonna do just kind of as a goodbye, you know, put a fork in us kind of deal.”
