Here are the top three stories today in Sachem:

1. A Sachem principal was duct-taped to a wall after students reached a fundraising goal. Tarmac Elementary School Principal Brenda Almendarez-DeBello allowed for the fun if students hit the $10,000 fundraising goal, instead raising $15,000 as part of a fitness-based fundraiser with the Harlem Wizards. See a photo of the principal duct-taped in the link. (Sachem Patch)
