The Nyack High School students who plotted the annual senior prank this week wound up getting pranked themselves.

Their initial plan was simple enough: Seniors would go into the high school late at night, remove nearly all the classroom desks and chairs, and line them up in the shape of a giant "2008" on the field behind the school.

Senior Erin Cummings, 17, said about 100 seniors came to the school at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday and worked for several hours arranging the desks.

But it seems another group came out to the field afterward and rearranged the desks in the shape of a penis, leaving the image that way for everyone to find yesterday morning.

"Personally, it was upsetting to see all our hard work turn into a huge penis," Cummings said, though she conceded she was proud her class was able to cause a little chaos for the day.

"Kids were on the floor laughing. They thought it was the funniest thing," she added.

In a public letter, Principal Daniel Nicholson said he gave seniors permission to arrange the desks in the "2008" shape. Local police were clued in ahead of time.

In his carefully worded letter, Nicholson wrote: "Something changed in the middle of the night, and the formation became a part of the male anatomy. It is not clear how the transformation occurred."
