What Causes Sever Itching On Butt Cheeks?

Hi, during class today below my butt cheeks on my back thighs I randomly got extremely itchy and had to go to the bathroom the pull down my pants and itch them. Once I scratched them for a minute or two the urging just stopped and that was the end of it. What could this be from?
