Bethany Lutheran School in Manitowoc is undergoing a gymnasium renovation, and in order to raise money for the project, the students participated in a coin drive.
The fundraiser was done during School Spirit Week, and the staff set a goal of $5,000. The students were incentivized to participate by Principal Aaron Krause, who agreed to be taped to a wall if the students raised $2,000. On top of that, Krause agreed to spend a night on the roof of the school if the goal was reached.
The students and their families surpassed all expectations, and raised a total of $6,000, so the students all participated in taping Krause to a wall yesterday.
Krause will hold good on his word and plans on staying on the roof next week.
