I woke up this morning to the email below. Our very own Gabriella Xavier, Class of 2022 & former Clinton ave student, recorded a new song and video. She is an amazing young woman with a voice to match. I have been listening to her Youtube channel as I do my work this morning. Her song "Even When It Hurts" brought me to tears. Although we are going through a difficult time, it reminds me to find the blessings in what we do have.
Principal Coady, please share with the Clinton Ave staff as I am sure her old teachers will remember her.
Please watch, like and share her video.
