Here's an idea: just make senior skip day an official day off for seniors. Just call it Senior Holiday. 12 graders don't have school that day. Police know to expect increased activity at the beaches or parks. Local restaurants and theaters get some patronage. Teachers with 12 grade classes can catch up on stuff like grading. We went through the same thing with skateboarding in the 90s: the solution was to build a fucking skatepark. You don't prevent teens from being teens, you create a safe environment for them to be teens.
I vaguely recall that we went to the zoo and needed a parents permission slip when I was a senior.
It's the most no-brainer shit to direct their energy to something. If you took them to a plot of land, turned on some music, set up some tents, got them catering, and called it hole digging day, you'd get emails 5 years later talking about how that day was the best day ever and how it changed their life.
