Enjoy the weekend!

I came across a wonderful story this morning. Click here to read it. After reading it, you may look at the upcoming weekend differently.

I hope to see everyone at tonight's Tailgate Party! Let's hope the Bulldogs come out on top against the Red Dragons. Mrs. Orr and her committee have worked very hard to ensure the evening is a success. I'm sure it will be one our most memorable events of the school year.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Congratulations!

Congratulations to Mrs. Saculla for receiving WFMJ's Giant Eagle Class Act Award! Mrs. Saculla was surprised early this morning when WFMJ's Mark Monstrola entered her classroom with balloons and his crew. The Giant Eagle Class Act segment will air Wednesday, September 29th on WFMJ Today during the 6:00-7:00 a.m. hour. Mrs. Lisa Weimer was kind enough to nominate Mrs. Saculla for this special award. Thank you Mrs. Weimer!

Tomorrow's Tailgate Party will begin at 5:30 p.m. behind PSHS's Fieldhouse. Bring your appetites.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

It's Wednesday!

The middle of the week has arrived! Before you know it, the weekend will be here. YSU tickets were sent home with those who returned their forms. I hope to see a lot of our families at Saturday's game. Go Penguins! Look for another offer this winter for free YSU basketball tickets.

Our Tailgate Party is quickly approaching. It looks like the weather will be on our side. Mrs. Orr has done a wonderful job planning this year's event. Bring a few extra dollars for a chance to win flowerpots decorated by our students. There will be basket raffles, too.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Thanks!

Thanks to those who were able to make it today's Kindergarten Tea. The stars of the show were full of smiles. I'd also like to thank Mrs. Gesacion and Miss Gura for their hard work. In addition, Mrs. Kellgren and Mrs. Partika made sure everything ran smoothly. Your hard work is appreciated, too.

Be on the lookout for information about our first "Walk Home from School Day" of the new school year. This special day will take place on Friday, October 1st. If the weather is not on our side, I will give you plenty of time to adjust your schedules. Cross your fingers for a dry day!

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Greetings!

It's nice to be back at work! This week is going to be a very busy one. Tomorrow's Kindergarten Tea should be a lot of fun. I know our kindergartners have worked hard to prepare for their visitors. I am proud to report that we are expecting a full house.

Friday's Tailgate Party will be another super event. Mrs. Orr and her committee are putting the final touches on what should be a great night. Hope you can make it.

Important information is heading home today with 3rd and 4th graders about this year's Juvenile Court Advisory Board's "Stay in School" Poster Contest. I love contests like this because our students can and do win. Those who choose to participate will automatically enter a drawing to eat dinner at my house, too! Please encourage your children to participate. If it's important to you, it will be important to your children. Here is one of my favorite quotes:

"Behold the turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out."
Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Enjoy the Weekend!


Our first 5 day week has come to an end. I've spent the last few days at home recovering from some minor knee surgery. By Monday, I'll be back on my feet and ready for a new week. Don't forget about Tuesday's Kindergarten Tea. I'm sure Mrs. Gesacion and Miss Gura will have their students ready to go.

Next Friday will be our PTO's annual Tailgate Party. Information was sent home this week. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Orr. Hope to see you there.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
