A principal at a local elementary school in Pennsylvania took on a daunting task Thursday afternoon.
She got on the roof of her school—with plans to spend the night up there.
Principal Kelly McGowan, of the Belmont Hills Elementary School, agreed to camp out on the roof of her school as a thank you to students for raising enough money to build a new playground.
The students raised over $25,000 to build the new playground and McGowan is holding up her end of the bargain.

SkyForce10 was over the elementary school as McGowan arrived, ready to go with a backpack on her back.
She walked past a large crowd of students and staff from the school before she was lifted onto the roof by the fire department.
NBC10 was told there will be pizza delivered at 6 p.m. and a Facebook livestream happening later Thursday night.
