RICHMOND, Va. — A beloved Richmond principal who was injured in an accident earlier this year made a surprise appearance at the 5th-grade graduation this week.

Greg Muzik, principal at Mary Munford Elementary School, was hospitalized after being involved in a crash with an SUV while riding his bicycle back in March.

Mr. Muzik entered the stage to a round of applause, before being presented a t-shirt from field day signed by the 5th grade class.

"One of my goals when I first woke up from my injuries was to make it to 5th grade graduation," he said.
