Students create impressive schoolwork waterfall to celebrate the end of the year

The paper cuts...

There are less wasteful ways to enjoy the last day of school, but few as dramatic.

Students from Basha High School in Chandler, Arizona, celebrated the end of the school year in the only reasonable way they knew how - by throwing all of their homework, class notes, old tests, and probably just a lot of unused paper down the stairwell, creating the biggest paper waterfall we've ever seen.

The homework monsoon was so massive and never-ending that some students actually took a ride down the papery stairwell mudslide.

This is fun and all, but everyone seemed to have the same reaction to the last day celebration: that's a shit ton of paper to clean up.

Others shuddered at the thought of all the potential paper-related injuries.

Oh, yeah and there's this...

Don't worry about the janitor, apparently the students are responsible for the clean-up.

Still pretty fun for a celebration turned chore. Did the school make sure to stock up on some Band-Aids?
