TOMS RIVER, N.J. — Teachers at High School East took center stage for the inaugural Masked Singer: Teacher Edition on Thursday night, with costumed contestants battling for the title in a lively competition.

Hosted by Matt Cicalese with assistance from Jess Lowe, the event featured several Raider staff members disguised as a zebra, pink unicorn, panda bear, axolotl, and dragon. A surprise appearance by a towering inflatable figure, reminiscent of those seen at car dealerships, added to the night’s entertainment.

Despite zebra-faced backup dancers, the zebra contestant fell short of victory. Instead, the pink unicorn emerged as the champion, though the winner’s identity was left for attendees and photos to reveal.
