South Brunswick, NJ - Crossroads South Middle School in South Brunswick was issued a challenge: Dance and raise money for Whip Pediatric Cancer, where you record a video of you and your friends doing "the whip," from Silento's "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)."

The challenge was issued by Lee Road Elementary School, in Levittown, Long Island. And that's why, the day before their spring break began, more than 30 Crossroads teachers did a flash mob dance in front of the 1,500 Crossroads student body. Watch the flash mob here!

This flash mob was teachers only, but a new one is coming Friday, April 1, this time of Crossroads Middle School students. The two recordings will be combined to create South Brunswick's Dance Challenge Video, and submitted to Whip Pediatric Cancer, said Angela Jardinella, a special education teacher at the school.

Their flash mob video has had more than 5,000 views and has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook and Twitter in the past three days.
