A Prank Gone Wrong

Ethical Educator

Scenario:

As a “senior prank” two weeks before graduation, about 20 students drive four cars onto the high school athletic fields causing $20,000 worth of damage to the infields and turf.

Cameras record license plate numbers. Ten seniors confess and implicate a dozen others plus 90 plotters on a Snapchat network. The school board president’s twin daughters were in one of the cars but not driving and the president plans to hand out their diplomas at graduation.

As superintendent, what do you do?
