Half the graduating class at a Texas high school was suspended and had their senior privileges revoked over a prank that involved sticking plastic forks into the school field.
About 40 students were involved altogether – but some went into Comfort High School at night and spread balloons and plastic wrap inside. “It was a harmless senior prank that all of us parents knew 100% what was going on,” said parent Hope Jay. Pictures posted by reporter Morgan Burrell on Twitter included a photo of a mounted deer head rearranged to be crooked and other mischief. The valedictorian and salutatorian were among the high performers in the class who were in on the shenanigans and are now suspended. Parents are complaining that the field forkers and those who went in the school are facing the same discipline. School administrators didn’t comment, but they are being widely criticized for the 'harsh' decision.
