'Clapping in' a new week

What a way to start the week! Students marched through a cheering corridor of staff, elected officials and community partners as they made their way into Giffen Memorial Elementary School on Monday morning.

The “clap-in” is just one way that Giffen lets its students know that they are loved and appreciated.

It’s always a great day to be a Giffen Gator!
