Teachers are always trying to challenge their students and sometimes a prize for success is enough to get their best effort. However, with a hot chocolate party on the line, one teacher decided to take things into her own hands. The teacher from Holy Trinity School Georgetown recently went viral after nailing a long distance basketball shot to win her students hot chocolate.
Kathleen Fitzpatrick is a third grade teacher in Washington DC, but what her students don’t know is; she was also a former college basketball player. That worked to the student’s advantage recently when the teacher promised her class hot chocolate if she could nail a basketball shot. As seen in the clip, the teacher sinks the shot, sending all the students into celebration mode.
“I was so excited to have a hot chocolate party myself," said Fitzpatrick. According to Fox News, the video was shared by the school and quickly went viral. Maybe those basketball dreams aren’t over for Fitzpatrick quite yet.
