Video: Hornung Elementary Principal Gets a Taste of Pie

may have started a new tradition Tuesday — throwing pies at the principal, Sue Johnson.

The event started as a raffle prize for the school's book fair that was held last month, according to Laurie Louria, the fair's vice chair. Every student who spent $5 or more at the fair was given a raffle ticket.

Johnson graciously agreed to allow one student from each grade level, kindergarten through fourth grade, attempt to hit her in the face with a pie during a school assembly.

The fourth-grade student attempted to hit Johnson from eight feet away, the third-grade student from six feet away, the second-grader from four feet away, and the first-grader from two feet away. The kindergarten winner got to stand right in front of Johnson.

Raffle winners were: Kailyn Bedaway, fourth grade; Brendan Clark, third grade; Jacob Tolsma, second grade; William Evans, first grade; and Julia Carney, kindergarten.
