Students at Gateway Middle School in Maumee got the ultimate reward Friday for raising money for charity. Above, Rachel Hostetler, left, is among four teachers who got a pie in the face by students during a pep assembly to reward students, who raised just over $400 for the American Heart Association during the annual Hoops for Heart event. The day also featured teachers playing a human version of the game Hungry Hungry Hippos, right, in which teachers slid across the floor on wheels, catching balloons in laundry baskets.
