Euclid teachers raise funds to support school programs

On Wednesday, April 14, Euclid Elementary School held a McTeacher's Night fundraiser at the McDonald's in Mount Prospect.

The McTeacher's Night was a way to bring Euclid Elementary teachers together to meet parents of students and members of the community, all while raising funds for the school.

The restaurant was full of families supporting the school as well as waiting to see teachers, Principal Laura Gammons and Ronald McDonald.

Thirty-five teachers and staff from Euclid worked the event, interacting with families and students. McTeacher jobs included greeting guests, cleaning the lobby, working the front counter, serving drinks, clearing tables, serving ice cream and selling pies.

Lots of students, teachers, families and friends came out in support. All the kids came to see their teachers work at the McDonald's in Mount Prospect. A special thank-you goes to Susie Makula, who organized the event.
