Students said the teacher had come into the classroom with a pair of scissors and informed them that it was hair cut day.
'We think she's going to try to be funny and be like, 'Oh, did you really think I was going to cut his hair?' one student told KFSN.
'But she did cut a hair off, and she started singing The Star Spangled Banner and she was singing it really loudly as she ceremoniously tossed a chunk of hair behind her.'
The student, who asked not to be named, said he ran to the school's main office to get help.
'I hope I never have to see her at the school again, because I know for a fact I can never see her as a respectable authority figure in my life,' he added.
The student also said that Gieszinger had a similar 'freak out' earlier in the week when she discovered a test was missing.

The Commission of Teacher Credentialing confirmed Gieszinger's credential was suspended in 2007 and 2016, the Times-Delta reported.
Each suspension lasted 14 days, but it's unclear why her credentials were suspended on those occasions.
