Maywood McDonald's Hosts McTeacher's Night for Washington Dual

Washington Dual Language Academy from District 89 in Maywood held a McTeacher's Night at the Maywood McDonald's on 1st Ave. on Tuesday, November 14th. A McTeacher's Night is organized to help raise money for local schools by having teachers work at McDonald's and then giving a percentage of the night's sales to the local school.

On Tuesday the restaurant was taken over by teachers excited to serve freshly prepared meals to students and their families to raise money for the schools. The students and families were excited to see their teachers and principal behind the counter and throughout the restaurant.

Fifteen teachers and staff members worked from the elementary schools. The McTeacher's jobs included greeting guests, cleaning the lobby, working the front counter, serving drinks, clearing tables, and serving ice cream cones--all duties which were executed with great enthusiasm.

A special thank you goes to Principal Lourdes Perez from Washington Dual Language Academy who organized the event as well as everyone that worked and attended the event. Washington Dual Language Academy teachers worked hard and with excitement, while the families enjoyed a spectacular evening.

The school plans to use the money raised for their PBIS program, which stands for Positive Behavior Intervention Systems of Support. This program rewards good behavior and perfect attendance with incentives.
