Busy...Busy...Busy!

I apologize for missing a few days of blogging. I have been rather swamped putting together this year's 4th Grade Recognition Video. I really enjoy creating it, but always mange to hit a few bumps in the road along the way. This year's bumps are a bit larger than usual. That's a nice way of saying, "AHHHHHH!"

We're looking forward to Thursday's visit from the Seminary Singers. They are extremely talented.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

A Quiet Day!

It was a very quiet day. Every now and then, we mange to have one of those. It was pretty nice.

The students were fortunate to get outside for recess today. All of this humidity makes me believe rain is on the way. Let's hope it stays dry for the weekend.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Play Ball!

Information will be heading home soon regarding free tickets to see the Pittsburgh Pirates. Don't laugh! The Pittsburgh Pirates are actually playing pretty good baseball these days. Over the years, our school has developed a great relationship with the Pirates. Each student will be entitled to a free ticket for July 20th's game versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Look for more information early next week.

There will not be a vegetable sale this year. This spring's lack of sunshine really did a number on our tomato and pepper plants. Before the end of the month, each student will bring home a few plants for the garden. Hopefully you have one!

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Rain...Rain...Go Away!

Enough with the rain already! Our new pond has now been transformed into a lake. If this keeps up, the fish will be swimming inside the greenhouse. After reading the recent article about the pond in the Vindicator, a couple from Youngstown dropped off 5 rather large goldfish that have adjusted nicely to their new home.

Let's hope the rain moves out of here before the weekend arrives.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Under the Weather

I was not in school today due to illness, but was never out of reach. Technology sure is wonderful. I look forward to getting back to work tomorrow.

I should learn some more details about the Core Essentials Award. As you know, Poland North is now a 2-time winner! A ceremony will be taking place soon. I'll be sure to keep you posted.

Have a wonderful day. It's hard to believe that there are only 23 days of school left. Woohoo!

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Let's Walk!

Today's "Walk Home from School Day" was a huge hit. I'm sure our bus drivers had smiles you could see from miles away. I'd like to thank our PTO volunteers for their help. This could not be done without you.

Staff Appreciation Week has come to an end. Thank you Mrs. Klase for another job well done. On behalf of our entire staff, I'd like to thank the PTO for their kindness and time. I think our PTO is simply the best.

There is a very nice article in today's Vindicator about our school's pond. be sure to take a look.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Splish Splash!

Our students were very excited to "release" their class fish into the school's pond today. I am happy to report that all of the fish seem well adjusted and comfortable in their new school. (C'mon...that's good stuff!) Overall, they have made a big splash.

Thank you PTO for a wonderful lunch. Today's PTO meeting was the last of the year! Thanks to those who were able to attend. I'd like to personally thank this year's President, Mrs. Tammy Sabrin, and the rest of our Officers for all that they have done for the students of our building. Our PTO serves our students exceptionally well and plays an enormous role in the overall success of our building. I am extremely fortunate to be a part of such a strong, organized and effective organization.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci
