Abner Gibbs Elementary School staff and students, led by new Principal Erika Masciadrelli, staged a surprise clap-out for retiring principal Kathleen O’Donnell behind the school on Oct. 11.
All of the students and teachers gathered to say goodbye and gave “Mrs. O” a card with all of their signatures on it. Masciadrelli, who began her new job Oct. 3, complimented the students on managing to keep it a surprise all day.
