My principal shaved her head

That's right! This is the amazing woman that I work for. She shaved her head this morning in front of her 600+ students to support one of the students at our school. He was diagnosed with cancer and had a tumor removed. He is going through radiation and will loose his hair. This entire year has been a struggle for him and his family...so tickets were sold and money was raised. I still haven't heard the total yet but it was over $500 the last time I heard.

I feel inspired to work for such a giving woman. I would have liked to be up on that stage with her but I just am not willing to shave my head. She really is willing to do anything for her students.
