Some might call it monkey business, but Union Springs High School Principal Kimberle Ward didn't find it amusing when she learned a male student had streaked down a hallway with nothing on but a gorilla mask Monday afternoon.

In fact, Ward ran after the naked student after he slipped out of the high school near the south side parking lot. Ward, who runs three to five miles daily, chased the student down North Cayuga Street (Route 90) before finally losing sight of him near the village's retail district.

Tuesday, state police in Aurelius arrested a 17-year-old student at the school and charged him with exposure of a person. The charge is a violation and punishable by up to 15 days in jail and/or a $250 fine. The teen also faces disciplinary action at the school.

The student told state police that he had been dared by some friends to streak through the school and had done so as a prank, Sgt. Nancy Mazur said Wednesday.

District Superintendent Linda Rice said anyone who significantly violates the student code of conduct faces up to five days suspension and possibly more severe punishment if the case goes to a hearing before her.

"There's no way anyone in the district would consider this a prank," Rice said. "We're here to teach children, and we do have high standards."

2. I Did Something Similar On A Bet In HS

I didn't wear a mask, but I did drop my pants and walk around the Chem lab w/ my ass hanging out (I had a smock on that covered my front, but the back was open)...The teacher was out of the room, but someone squealed on me and he found out.

My mom had to write a note apologizing, but she thought it was funny...I made ten bucks!
