Pies will fly like never before as teachers get pelted in the face for the Art Club’s “Pie In The Eye” fundraiser. During block lunch, students and teachers can donate loose change and cash into buckets to help the art club raise money for supplies for the 2014-15 school year.

But there is a twist.

Everyone who donates will pick their favorite or least favorite teacher or administrator by putting the money in that teacher’s individual bucket and the six teachers that have the most money after Wednesday, May 21 will go up during block lunch the following day and be targets for pie flinging for 10 minutes. It will cost $5 for the chance to throw pie at a teacher with all proceeds from the pie throwing and the buckets split between the club and the teacher who raised the money.

This is the first year that the art club has done this fundraiser after finding the idea on Pinterest.

“I was looking for ideas for next year’s fundraiser,” art teacher Shanna Blair said. “But when we surveyed the students, a lot of seniors wanted to participate, so we are doing it now.”

As of Monday the top six were social studies teacher Rob Borenstein, Principal Jeffery Kajs, math teachers Jason Polson and Debbie Skelly, assistant principal Stephanie Gore and math teacher Michelle Birkhead.

Yearbook adviser Kira Hayes was among the top six after Friday’s counting.Blair said the main reasons behind most students’ motives for choosing a teacher would be a mix of love for their teachers and the want for revenge. Those who have been among the top six so far have mixed feelings about their place on the list.

“I’m hurt,” Hayes said. “I’m not looking forward to getting a pie in the face.”

Competition among the teachers is strong. Some want more money for their own bucket and some for others. Teachers are going to different classrooms, trying to get the students to put money either in their bucket or another teacher’s.

“The competition between the both teachers and the students is my favorite part,” Blair said.
