Sherri Black wasn’t going anywhere. 

On Tuesday, Oct. 18, Cork Elementary students used duct tape to stick their principal to the wall. Students who had a parent sign up for PTA for the 2016-2017 school year were each given a strip of duct tape to stick on Black. 

Students in kindergarten through fifth grade took turns heading to the multi-purpose room at Cork Elementary to stick on Black. By the end of the activity, Black was covered in silver tape from the neck down. About 100 kids participated in the event.
