Great Job!

Wow! I am proud to report that 85 students completed last night's "virtual assignment". That is an amazing number for the first assignment of the year. Thanks to Papa John's every students was rewarded for his or her efforts.

I'd like to thank everyone who was able to make it to today's PTO Meeting. It is a great feeling knowing our students have such a devoted group working together for them.

Our Parent Orientation will begin at 6:00 p.m. tonight and wrap up shortly after 7:00 p.m. I hope to see you there.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Coming To An End!

Our first week of school is quickly coming to an end. While we have had a few bumps in the road, it has been a very smooth beginning to the school year. Please continue to establish routines at home that include checking backpacks and helping with homework.

Our new Physical Education teacher, Miss Rider, is off to a great start, too. Many of our students have experienced her class and do so with smiles. Our 4th graders will meet her tomorrow.

I hope to see a lot of faces at Tuesday's PTO Meeting. The meeting will be held in Room 102 and begin at 11:00 a.m. There will be quite a bit to discuss. Please plan on attending.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

It's Day 2!

Our students were introduced to their new Physical Education teacher this morning. Miss Rider is anxious to begin the school year, too. She is a Malone College graduate and comes to the Poland Schools with quite a bit of experience. We are thrilled to have her.

Having three children of my own, I know how many important papers made their way home yesterday. Please do your best to get them filled out and returned to school. It is deeply appreciated.

Please note that PTO's first meeting of the year will be held on Tuesday, September 14th at 11:00 a.m. While one of the papers sent home may state it will start at 9:00 a.m., the meeting will begin at 11:00 a.m. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Welcome!

It's the first day of school! There were a lot of smiling faces that entered the building this morning. There were also quite a few that looked less then thrilled to be here, but do not worry. Our teachers will get back into the swing of things rather quickly. (C'mon......that's a little first day of school humor!)

Start getting into the habit of checking your child's backpack today. Many important papers will be heading home this first week of school. Please return them ASAP.

Have a wonderful day.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
