At Strasburg High we set a goal for the kids to raise $1,300 in a one week period. To "sweeten" the pot and motivate the student body, my buddy and I told students that we would shave our heads into MOHAWKS if they surpassed the goal! Kids really got into the challenge, mostly due to the thought of humiliating two of their beloved teachers, but also because they knew the importance of their mission. Let me tell you something, while I have never felt and looked more ridiculous... I have never been more proud. The students of Strasburg High destroyed their goal raising $2,000 dollars. My classroom alone raised $300 dollars (the most in the entire school... ya... we also won a class pizza party because of it). It has been a week since the assembly where Mr. Brice and I were Mohawked in front of an entire audience of cheering kids. I'm losing the mohawk tonight, but I thought some of you might want to see it before I do : )
