Today's News

Another week has come to an end. With all that has been going on here at school and the simple fact that it is the middle of December, our students have been well behaved. Please continue to encourage your children to follow classroom, cafeteria, playground and bus rules. This time of year I make a list and check it twice!

Thank you very much to those who were able to make it to last night's Holiday Shoppe. Your support is appreciated. I would also like to thank Mrs. Blasko and her committee for their hard work and time. Santa's Workshop was a huge success and provided our students with an opportunity to shop for family and friends.

There were a few plates left over from our recent classroom art projects. Each day, I looked at three unused plates until I just couldn't take it anymore. In addition to those already on display, raffle tickets will be sold on Monday and Tuesday for these plates. Tickets are $1.00 or 6 for $5.00. We'll draw our winners' names on Wednesday, December 19th.

Today's Forecast!

It looks like we may be getting some snow today! In the event of a delay or closing, be sure to listen to local radio stations or watch local programming.

I hope that the weather will not keep people away from tonight's Holiday Shoppe. Each vendor has paid our PTO a flat fee to set up a table. Please try to stop by and support many of our community's local businesses.

Keep your eyes on the Youngstown Vindicator for a story about our school. Several days ago, the Vindicator's Denise Dick contacted me and said she had discovered our school's website. She was very impressed and asked if she could run a story on it. It should be in the paper soon!

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Thank you PTO!

Today marked the first day of holiday shopping! Thank you to all of the PTO members who helped with making this year's workshop such a success. I would be willing to bet that many of our students will soon be busy wrapping and hiding the gifts they purchased today. All students will have another opportunity to shop tomorrow.

Remember.....Our school's Holiday Shoppe is tomorrow evening from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. There are going to be 15 local vendors here with merchandise on display. Please try to stop in and support local businesses and our PTO.

Thank you,

Mr. Masucci

A Great Week!

It has been a wonderful start to a busy week! It's not even 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday and we have already been handed $200.00 for our Make-A-Wish efforts. Yesterday was unbelievable! In all, over $1,200.000 was donated. Thank you. Our students are really getting excited about our progress!


Our PTO's Holiday Shoppe will be held here at school on Thursday from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. We were fortunate to have the information placed on the message board underneath Poland's clock tower for all to see. I hope you can stop by to see the merchandise that many local vendors will have on display. Please spread the word and bring a friend!



Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Great News!

With only 10 school days left before our break, your children sure will be busy. Keep your eye on our school's calendar for upcoming events and be sure to look for important papers coming home each day.

It was nice to see two of our students have poems published in the MiniPage this weekend. Keep 'em coming!

Late last week our school was notified that for the third time in the last five years Poland North Elementary School's students have been awarded the American Red Cross Mahoning Chapter's Heroes of the Mahoning Valley Award. Much more information regarding the award will be sent home with all students on Monday. Congratulations!

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci
