Kindness Prank

STUDENTS’ ‘ANTI-PRANK’ SURPRISES STAFF AT CHRISTIAN SCHOOL Forsaking stink bombs and false fire alarms, a group of graduating high school students in Holland, Mich., pulled off the ultimate “anti-senior prank” this week–they performed random acts of kindness. Several seniors at Holland Christian High School took on lawn-maintenance duties from school employees Tuesday, washing windows and planting flowers, the Associated Press reported. They also handed out beverages and lollipops to bewildered fellow students while about a dozen seniors arrived at the school riding lawn tractors armed with weed trimmers and hoses. “For the past so many years it’s been the same thing–water balloons and being mean to underclassmen–nothing real original,” said Chad Brouwer from atop his tractor. “We’re just trying to do a nice senior prank, but something that will get us noticed.” The “anti-prank” surprised most of the school’s staff members, including Principal Tim Hoeksema, who found it to be a “refreshing change.” Schools routinely suffer thousands of dollars worth of damage from overzealous seniors whose ideas for pranks include vandalism. “I thought it was pretty awesome what these kids did,” Hoeksema said. “It’s a good reflection of what these students have done here in the last four years.” (Charisma News Service)
