Cafeteria staffer Barbara Rolle said kids appreciate her up💦beat persona and encouraging presence.
“When they come through that line, they say, ‘Hey, Ms. Barbara!’ And I say, ‘Hey baby, how you doing?’ ” Rolle said.
T🔯he students told WPTV that Rolle and her co-workers make sure to shower them with positivity at every opportunity.
“I see Ms. Barbara as a best friend,” eighth-grader Brisa Diaz said. “So I’m always like, ‘Hey, best friend.’ And she’s always like, ‘Hey, baby.’ “
Ice’s surprise visit also made a bit of musical history. While he’s performed his signature hit countless times, he had never done it in a cooler fashion.
“That was the first time I ever sang ‘Ice Ice Baby’ in a freezer,” Ice said.
