A Golden Night Under the Golden Arches for Elmwood Elementary

Elmwood Elementary School in District 203 held its first McTeacher's Night on Wednesday, September 27th, at the Naperville McDonald's on 75th and had an amazing night.

A McTeacher's Night is organized to help raise money for local schools by having teachers and staff work at McDonald's and then giving a percentage of the night's sales back to the local school.

On September 27th, the restaurant was taken over by teachers and staff members from Elmwood Elementary excited to serve freshly prepared meals to students and their families to raise money for Elmwood Elementary Home and School.

There were 34 teachers and staff who worked from the school including Principal Lisa Polomsky and Assistant Principal Sarah Cain who volunteered the entire night. The McTeacher's jobs included greeting guests, cleaning the lobby, working the front counter, serving drinks, clearing tables, selling apple pies and even dressing up as an apple pie.

A Special thank you goes to teacher Stephanie Arnold who volunteered to dress up as an apple pie the entire night while families donated funds for their own delicious pie!

A performance by the 3rd-grade violinists was amazing and Ronald McDonald also stopped by to meet everyone from the school. The School Mascot was even there greeting all the families as they entered the restaurant.

Thank you to the Elmwood Elementary Home and School representative Ashley Cook who organized the entire event. Elmwood Elementary School teachers and staff worked hard and with excitement, while the families enjoyed a spectacular evening.

Elmwood Elementary School plans to use the money raised to go into the Home and School fund to pay for field trips, assemblies, parties, the garden and various school clubs.
