They sit down, put on their glasses, click their pen, and start their brackets.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also during the month of March, each school day has a theme. Every day if the teachers choose to dress up, they are able to enter their name in a drawing to win gift cards. The drawing will be at the end of the month. If teachers pay $20, they get to wear jeans for the whole month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coach Russelburg states, \u201c I do plan to participate in the March Madness spirit month. I&#8217;m not the type of guy who will go out to buy an outfit the night before just to stick with the theme, but if I have an old jersey, hat, or tie-dye shirt in the closet, and I remember to wear it, then I&#8217;ll throw it on for the sake of the spirit week.\u201d&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former 2019 March Madness winner, Mrs. Johnson, put in $20, and came out with $110 last year.&nbsp; \u201cNCAA basketball bracketology has been a secret talent of mine since high school.\u201d  She says she will definitely be entering and participating again this year.&nbsp;&nbsp;She adds that this portion of the teacher contest is totally outside school. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Hume will probably not be participating in the dress up days, but he says he is going to put the Louisville Cardinals as the winner of the bracket.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s that time of the year when the teachers start putting down bets\u2026 not on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":483,"featured_media":11570,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-photos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/483"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11569"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11574,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11569\/revisions\/11574"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
