Troy Craughwell teachers flip burgers instead of pages!

Local teachers serve students and families at McTeacher's Night to raise money for the School Activities Fund.

JOLIET, IL —Troy Craughwell students gave their teachers an A-plus on their fundraising efforts to support local education and general activities fund to offset costs of participation prizes and student incentives.

Lunch supervisor Dawn Royer and the rest of the amazing Troy Craughwell staff volunteered on Thursday, January 23, at the Joliet McDonald’s located at 4280 W. Jefferson Street, where they served students and their families in a fundraiser for their school.

The proceeds from the sale of over 130 pies went directly to benefit the students for incentives and school activities. The Joliet community has an amazing network of support for their schools, McDonald’s was busy the entire evening!
