Students Trap Principal Under Layers of Duct Tape in This Time-Lapse Video
No, it wasn't a case of revenge for the Blades Elementary School students for all of the homework they receive. It was part of the school's participation in raising money for the American Heart Association.
Students at Blades Elementary School in Oakville had the last laugh on Monday morning after taping their principal to a gymnasium wall.
Don't worry: It wasn't a case of the students revolting. It was simply a part of the school's participation in Jump Rope For Heart, a program to raise money and awareness for the American Heart Association. The school raised $3,400 through the program.
To encourage greater participation, Principal Jeremy Booker let any student who donated $10 help tape him to the gym wall using Duct tape.
