I'm Lovin' It!

Last Thursday, Floyd Middle School faculty took over the nearest McDonald's in the area for the night. All participants assisted employees with various roles in the fast food restaurant to help raise money for the school from 5-8 PM. McTeacher night was a huge success! Thanks to all the parents and families who attended the fundraiser. I had the privilege of working the grill and helping assemble the orders as they came in from the drive-through and the front counter. It was a little hectic at times, but overall a great experience. I have a new found respect for what goes on behind the scenes at McDonald's once an order is placed.
