My condolences to your family. Mrs. Bigda served as Vice Principal during time at CHS. One always dreaded getting called to her office as she was very strict. Luckily I never did but I did spend occasion in her office talking about personal things happening in my life so I got to see the softer side of her. May she rest in peace. She lived a beautiful life.

I started Chicopee High School in 1989, just as Mrs. Bigda was taking over as principal. She was tough, but fair to us students. She let the `good´ kids have some extra privileges. I have been a Chicopee Public School teacher for 24 years, Kara (Mitchell) Gauthier CHS Class of `93
