Keepin' Busy

We're all managing to keep busy during this very special time of year. Our halls are filled with the sounds of our 1st and 2nd graders as they prepare for their upcoming holiday performance. Santa's Workshop wraps up today. I'd like to thank our PTO for another job well done. Thanks to those that were able to make it last night's Holiday Shopping Night, too. Your continued support is appreciated.

After a little bit of confusion, we have ourselves a red kettle! A representative from the Salvation Army stopped by yesterday, apologized for the delay and set up the kettle in our lobby. We'll be collecting change today and Monday morning. If you listen hard enough, you may hear the sounds of the bell ringing throughout our hallways!

The Poland Bulldogs open up their basketball season tonight against the Springfield Tigers at PSHS. Let's hope for another great season. GO DOGS!

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

Tickets and GREAT NEWS!

Tickets for our holiday plates will go on sale starting tonight during PTO's Holiday Shopping Night. Tickets will cost $1.00 or 6 for $5.00. Beginning tomorrow, they will be sold during lunch. They will also be on sale during our Holiday Program on Tuesday, December 16th.

I have some wonderful news to share. Each year the Mahoning Chapter of the American Red Cross honors individuals and groups from our community that make a difference. This year one of our students will be honored and recognized as a hero in the community. During last year's Make-A-Wish campaign, she raised close to $500.00 and donated every penny to our school's efforts. In doing so, she inspired others to give and helped us reach our goal of collecting $6,000.00. Congratulations Paige!

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci
