He added that "his classmates, in an effort to boost his morale and make the student feel comfortable, to go to school, decided to shave their heads. Thus, the XNUMX children of the XNUMXnd grade of the High School at that time, today became one hundred, while their energy was embraced by all the students, younger and older ".
Ms. Katelitsa Amulet also spoke about the philosophy she embraces: "It's the actions that count, something that happened today at the school.
Juices, granitas, pizzas and other items were sold in the schoolyard at the same time as the haircut.
The money raised will go to a common fund and the final amount will be donated to charity.
