Teachers Get ‘Footloose’ on ‘GMA’ With ‘Super Fun’ Back-to-School Viral Video

Teachers wanted to show students how great it really is to be back.

— -- Just because school is back in session doesn’t mean the fun needs to end with all work and no play.

And nobody knows that better than two teachers from Union Grove high school in Union Grove, Wisconsin, who made a hilarious back-to-school parody video based on Kenny Loggins’ iconic song “Footloose.”

“We had amazing educators in our lives who’ve inspired us to dream big,” Hein explained of their inspiration behind the video. “And we’re just so incredibly proud of our staff, students and community at Union Grove high school that we wanted to show that off to the world and just build a super fun and engaging learning environment.”

Now kicking off the school year with their most viral video yet, Hein and Brachmann got 40 students involved to take part in the catchy choreography.

“We have an amazing staff, amazing students, they all loved it,” Hein said. “We look forward to doing it every single year.”

As for next year, the teachers were already joking that they may just have to “get the ‘Dancing With the Stars’ crew involved.’”
