🚨 SENIOR PRANKS – A MESSAGE TO STUDENTS AND PARENTS 🚨
The West Monroe Police Department understands that senior year is an exciting time, and students want to make lasting memories.
However, we want to remind everyone that a senior prank should never result in criminal charges, property damage, or someone getting hurt.
⚠️ What may seem like a harmless prank can quickly become a criminal offense.
🚔 Trespassing, vandalism, destruction of property, theft, and disorderly conduct are not acceptable forms of celebration. Those involved could face criminal charges and be held financially responsible for damages.
🎉 WANT TO HAVE FUN? TRY THESE SAFE SENIOR PRANK ALTERNATIVES!
There are plenty of ways to make your senior year memorable without breaking the law!
✅ Anything But a Backpack Day – Carry your school supplies in something silly (and school-approved).
✅ Costume Day – Dress up as your favorite teacher, cartoon character, or childhood hero.
✅ Teacher Look-Alike Day – Dress like your favorite teacher and see if they can recognize themselves!
✅ Positive Prank Day – Surprise teachers and staff with thank-you notes, compliments, or small acts of kindness.
✅ Senior Class Photo Surprise – Coordinate a funny, creative group photo that everyone will remember.
Remember: Get permission from school administrators before organizing activities on school property. A great prank should leave everyone laughing—not cleaning up damage or calling the police!
👨👩👧 PARENTS: Please talk with your teenagers about making responsible decisions and understanding the potential consequences of their actions.
🎓 STUDENTW: You've worked too hard to let one bad decision affect your graduation, your future, or your freedom.
💙 Make memories, not mugshots!
