USV elementary teachers will be helping at Ada McDonald's on Monday night to help raise money for the school.
They compete against Ada, which had a large number of people turn out last Monday. The schools all share in a percentage of sales, but the school system with the most sales gets an extra $150.
So, now it's up to Rams to try to top Ada's sales between 5-8 p.m. on Monday
