What are the most interesting crazy boarding school stories you've heard?
A story I heard was about a boarding school's talent show gone wrong. A student was supposed to perform a magic trick, but instead of pulling a rabbit out of a hat, he accidentally let loose a bunch of squirrels that had gotten into the prop box.

At one boarding school, there was a tradition of a 'no - shoes day'. But one year, the new principal didn't know about it. So when all the students showed up to class barefoot, the principal was shocked. The students had to explain the long - standing tradition. After some discussion, the principal decided to let it be for that day and even joined in on the fun, walking around the school barefoot too. It became a story that was told for years to come about how the principal embraced the school's unique traditions.
There was a boarding school where students found an old tunnel in the basement. They thought it was a secret passageway to some hidden treasure.

It turned out it was just an old drainage tunnel, but the excitement of the discovery and the mystery they thought they had uncovered made it a really cool story. The students even made a little museum in the school with the artifacts they found.
