MONTGOMERY CITY - Montgomery City celebrated a little of its own madness Friday afternoon.

The Montgomery City Elementary School faculty played their own Memphis-Mizzou game. As part of a positive behavior support program, students got to watch their teachers roll around in chairs and play basketball. Only students with no office referrals could go to the game. Montgomery City Elementary began the program this year and reinforced good habits to the students.

"We've been telling them to follow our five B's. Be safe, be kind, be cooperative," said Cara Weekley, kindergarten teacher.

"Be responsible, be respectful," finished Andy Milner, fifth grade student.

The kids were also rewarded with popcorn at the game.
