A '''school prank''' is a [[prank]] pulled at [[school]] by a [[student]] or group of students, usually on another student or even a [[teacher]].  School pranks can vary in their intent, elaborateness, and severity.  They may be performed as an expression of dominance in the social hierarchy, to demonstrate physical or intellectual prowess, as an act of revenge, or even as an expression of affection.

(contracted; show full)'Dutch Rub'', ''Monkey Scrub'' or ''Russian Haircut'', this is done by putting the victim in a [[headlock]] and using the middle knuckles of the fore and middle fingers to cause friction by rubbing them across the surface of the skull quickly and firmly. This usually only causes minor skin irritation.<ref name=wedgies/>

===Pantsing===
{{Main|Debagging}}
Pantsing (also debagging, depantsing, shanking, skanking or dacking in Australia and kegging 
or cacking in England) is the act of pulling down a person's pants (trousers in England) without the person's consent, and without their approval. The most common method is to sneak up behind the intended victim, grab the pants', shorts', or skirt's waistband, and apply a quick downward tug before the victim is aware of the "debagger's" presence.<ref name=wedgies/>

===Wet Willy===
Usually performed on a sleeping or otherwise unsuspecting person, the perpetrator of a wet willy wets his or her finger with [[saliva]] and inserts it into the ear of the victim. While not typically resulting in physical harm (although [[ear infection]] might occur), the moist sensation can be extremely unpleasant.<ref name=wedgies/>
