“Pie A Teacher” Fund-raiser |
The students of Kerr worked together to raise money for the earthquake victims of Haiti. One of the fund-raising events was called “Pie A Teacher.” Students raised money to try to get their teacher pied in the face. Mr. Hart , Mrs. Hess, and Ms. Ferguson were the lucky winners. Click here to see the video. Thank You Kerr Student Council for organizing such a great event! |
