A fun-loving principal has been bringing smiles to his students’ faces by posing as an “elf on the shelf” ahead of Christmas, appearing in various nooks and crannies, and inspiring wonder and curiosity around the school.

Approaching his seventh year as principal at John Quincy Adams Primary School in Deer Park, New Jersey, Christopher Molinelli, 43, from Long Island, heads up a school with students from Pre-K to grade two.
