So our school decided that since our kids work so hard (which they do) and the winter is long and cold (which it is) we would give everyone a day off from classes, and prepared a "Beyond the Books" program for today. Which we did not tell our students about until they showed up at school. We herded them into the auditorium for our weekly assembly and the principal told them to take off their ties and untuck their shirts because all classes were cancelled for the day. And then they stared at us in confused, baffled silence. It took a good 15 minutes to convince them that this was not a joke.

your students are much more well behaved than we were. they would have had to guard the doors to keep us in after hearing that.
That would have been one cruel joke. I hope they had fun.
That's awesome.
And then what? You can't legally send them home can you. Did they just hang out and be cool?
