I'm not a big fan of fund raisers... not sure why, since I think they're for good causes. I think it has to do with never getting anything fun out of them myself when I was younger.
Well, not so with Bryana. In her first major fund raiser, in which we made her pitch her school's cause to various people around the office and family (instead of doing it for her), Bryana managed to set the record for the largest number of contributions. As a result, she was one of five or six students that were honored with the chance to put a pie in the face of one of the school faculty. In Bryana's case, the PE teacher.
So, to cheers of "We will, we will pie you!" (to the tune of "We will rock you")... Bryana delivered a pie to her PE teacher.
All in all, the school raised around $11,000 - which was just a touch shy of the $12,000 goal that they had. So far, we've been impressed with the involvement of the PTA and the community at Tobias, the kids really seem to feed off the energy of the staff and I think that makes for a better learning environment. We're happy to have Bryana there!
