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

Brrrr!

It looks like we are in store for a very cold day!

Congratulations to our 4 fourth graders who represented themselves, their families and their school very well last night at the annual Mahoning County 24 Challenge Tournament. Their willingness to try something new and go above and beyond what is expected sets a wonderful example for all of our students. I'd also like to thank the parents and Ms. Vasko for taking the time out of their busy schedules in order to get to the event.

Don't forget that YSU Basketball ticket information is due tomorrow. You'll receive your free tickets as soon as YSU's representative drops them off at school.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

A Snowy Day

When my phone rang this morning shortly after 6:00 a.m., I couldn't help but think.....SNOW DAY! It does look nice outside but puts a lot more pressure on me to get the house decorated!

During our morning announcements, I continued to encourage all students to write poems for the Vindicator's Mini Page. It is a nice way for your children to practice writing skills and could lead to having their poems published. There is a mailbox outside the office for all finished poems. Each week I collect them and mail them to the Vindicator. Be sure that each poem includes a title, the name and grade level of the poet and name of our school. This is a great month to think ahead and write poems about New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr., sports and the weather.

A Nice Day

It's been a very quiet day.

Thank you,

It is going to be a very busy month. Be sure to check out our calendar to learn about upcoming events! Please feel free to let me know what you think of our site.

Wow! Our school has been collecting money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation for less than a month. Despite this short period of time, a large sum of money has been donated. Because of the generosity of our students, staff, families and community, we are off to an amazing start.

Thank you very much!

Please remember that our PTO's monthly meeting will be held on Monday, December 3rd at 11:00 a.m. I hope to see you there.

Thank you,
