\nSuggested by a few members of the student council, the school is playing Hanson’s 1996 hit “MMMBop” through the loudspeakers before classes begin, between periods and during lunch. The idea? Annoy students into donating; have them pay to stop the music.
\nThe goal is $3,000, which could be reached if each of the 659 students donates $5.
\n“MMMBop” has been playing since Wednesday, and the school has raised about $2,300 so far.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
