Jared Randall kisses cow Bentheim Elementary Principal Goes Above and Beyond after Hawk Walk Fundraiser

Bentheim Elementary Principal Jared Randall took student motivation to new heights—literally—during the school's annual Hawk Walk fundraiser. On Thursday, October 3, Randall spent the day working from the school’s roof, much to the delight of students and staff. This unique event was part of an exciting incentive package offered to students for raising over $18,000 for their school.

The fun didn't stop there. On Friday, October 4, Randall made good on a promise to kiss a cow in front of the entire school. The principal’s rooftop office and animal smooch were rewards for the students' impressive efforts in supporting Bentheim Elementary's biggest fundraising event of the year.

Randall's enthusiasm and willingness to step outside of the box helped build excitement and motivate students throughout the fundraising campaign. With students eager to see their principal follow through on these unusual promises, the energy around the event was electric.

The Hawk Walk fundraiser has long been a tradition at Bentheim Elementary, with the proceeds supporting various school activities, classroom resources, and extracurricular programs. Thanks to Randall's creative approach, this year's event became even more memorable, and the school's community rallied together to exceed expectations once again.
