Bloomfield Teachers Duct Taped To Wall For Charity

BLOOMFIELD, NJ — The Bloomfield High School Key Club recently managed to get their teachers all tied up… for charity.

As part of the students’ effort to raise money for their Friends of Karen Fundraiser, the key club helped to organize a unique event last month: “Tape-A-Teacher.”

During the fundraising event, students voted on which teachers they would like to duct tape to the wall. Students then got to tape their uber-gracious educators to the wall and leave them there for all four lunch periods.

In all, Bloomfield teachers endured 130 pieces of tape (each netting them a $1 donation).

The sticky-fingered funds – in addition to the proceeds from a donation jar and a bake sale – will go to aid children battling childhood cancer as part of a local student’s effort to help her peers.
