“A Legend has Left the Building”

Truer words were never spoken than by Mrs. Wooster, GMS’s 1st Vice Principal and legend in her own right, in her farewell to Mr. Scigliano.  Check out Mrs. Wooster’s & other friend’s kind  farewells that we have watched these past weeks.

This has been a season of ‘Good-Byes’ at Glanford and we have found ourselves thanking so many of our colleagues who are moving on to new adventures for helping to make Glanford a great place to come to school.  Here at the last, we do so for our friend & mentor & visionary & leader & principal.  Our Mr. Scigliano, here from before Day One of Glanford Middle School – 21 years in all; who has always reminded us that we will do “What’s best for kids”; who has been our great advocate and booster; who has encouraged us to do better and do more; and who has made us better GMSers; has retired.  In true Maverick fashion we have done our best to say ‘Thank you’ with tributes on Studio 85, at Retros, & in person, with kind words at Covid-Friendly distances, and of course, with smiles & laughter.

Thank you, Mr. Scigliano, for making our school a joyous place these many years.  We will continue to teach the lessons of  kindness, caring, friendship, & responsibility that have been the defining characteristics of your service.  May your next adventure bring you all that this one has and more.  We will miss you.
