HMS Broadcasting on Oct. 8 announced a new segment called "Mystery Teacher of the Week," in which the station will give daily clues about a teacher and students can guess who it is.

Harper said the station will "announce a fun or random fact about 1 of the teachers here in the middle school" and that "the student who guesses correctly with the fewest amount of clues will will receive some candy or a small prize for mister Gekke." Students were told to submit guesses to Mr. Gekke via Schoology message or email.

The announcement gave a first clue: the teacher's dream job is to be a sports reporter.
