Harter Middle School hosts McTeacher's Night May 23 in Sugar Grove

Kaneland Harter Middle School in Sugar Grove held its annual McTeacher's Night on Wednesday, May 23, at the Sugar Grove McDonald's on Route 47.

The restaurant was taken over by teachers excited to serve meals to students and their families to raise money for the Kaneland Unit District 302 school.

The teachers worked many different jobs during this event. Teachers helped take orders, work the drive-thru window, handed out orders, helped cleaned the lobby, and sold hot apple pies.

During this event, Kaneland Harter Middle School Principal Brian Faulkner dressed in a pie costume the entire evening, while Katie and Keara Richardson, and Becky Andersen escorted him with a tray of apple pies to sell.

All proceeds from the pie sales go to the school.

The Schmitt family, McDonald's owner/operators, donated all pies that were sold during this event. Also, a special performance by Mid-Knight Special entertained teachers, staff and families.

A special thank you goes to Jen Moorehouse who organized the event. Kaneland Harter Middle School plans to use the money for their outdoor classrooms and murals.
