I don't know if teachers still do this or how common it was but when I was in elementary school there was always a possibility of having your desk dumped if it got really messy and you couldn't find something. We had one grade three teacher that was notorious for dumping desks. I was in his grade 3 class, he was actually an awesome teacher and one of the best I've ever had, and one day he dumped 5 or 6 student's desks together and they had to sift through a big pile of stuff. It was great.
