Tryon Elementary School faculty and staff said they had great support from the community for the school’s recent McTeacher’s Night.

“We had a blast,” said one teacher.

Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Ireland and Ms. Lance took turns at the drive-thru window.

Mrs. Turner, Mrs. Heston and Mrs. Kilgore took turns making fries, while Mr. Cowan and Mrs. Guffey were in the back making nuggets and sandwiches.

Mrs. Sharpe, Mrs. Brown, Ms. Evans, Mrs. Bruce, Mr. Sizemore and many others helped greet customers, clean off tables and keep everything stocked.

“It was such a fun night, we hope the customers had as much fun as the TES staff,” another staff member said.

All the proceeds from that night went to fund the R.I.F. program at school.

School staff members were able to raise more than $700.
