Did you know that Lucille Hunter Foundation raises money for teacher pay at Hunter? And did you know that coming to a school spirit night helps us to reach our funding goals? Therefore, bringing your kids to Two Roosters tomorrow = supporting public education. Isn’t it sweet when it works out like that?? See you Thursday from 2-9 pm at the Two Roosters Ice Cream off Person St.! Mention the Foundation and 20% of the proceeds goes right back to Hunter 💫

Hunter rocks and now we can prove it! Starting this school year, families can rent the rock for birthday shoutouts or celebrating their student. A $25 donation is suggested for rock rental, but families are welcome to give more if they’re so inclined. All rock payments go to supporting the Hunter Foundation, which raises money for teaching positions and professional development at Hunter. Head to our website to reserve your date today. We look forward to rocking out with you this school year!
