On Wednesday morning, December
16, students at TZE were called down to the gym to help
the staff solve a “prank” on Dr. Lee. They saw a brief
newscast about the incident and a “security camera”
video of Dr. Lee entering his office. When Dr. Lee
entered the main office he was surprised to see a number
of footprints on the rug and was shocked when he opened
his office door and discovered a large pair of
underpants hanging above his desk. The students were
sent back to their classrooms to analyze a set of clues
to help solve the case. The clues included examining
fingerprints, footprints, handwriting and a secret code.
One hour later they gathered in the gym and were able to
identify the prankster. It was none other than 3rd grade
teacher Mrs. Schaefer. The “prank”, based on the popular
reading series “Captain Underpants”, was created by Ms.
Lipton, Mrs. Hill, Mr. Eckert and Mrs. Schaefer. It
challenged the students’ to use their analytical skills
while making for a fun and exciting morning. Thanks to
all for making this an event that will not be forgotten.
