A Huge Success!

Wow! I just got home from tonight's Father/Son Night! Thank you to Mrs. Blasko and her committee for putting together one incredible evening. The turnout was fantastic. By far, PSHS basketball players Bryan, Ben and Ben were the hit! Too often you hear about what teenagers do wrong. It may not be as common to hear about what they do right. Tonight three young men volunteered their time and created lasting memories for young kids from their community and, for two of them, their old school! Thank you guys. You are appreciated for what you can do on the court...... and off.

I cannot forget to thank the dads, grandpas and other important men who made the night a success. You are appreciated, too.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

P.S. Look for pictures on the site soon!

Today's News

Our 2nd Graders had a great time on their field trip to Schwebel's Bakery. From what I understand, they were very well behaved and enjoyed the tour. Thank you to all of the chaperones who were able to assist Mrs. Saculla and Mrs. Gunn.

Tonight's Father/Son Night is going to be great! Plan on arriving at 5:30 p.m. Hope to see you there.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

A Great Performance!

Congratulations to our Kindergarten and 3rd Graders! Tonight's performance was absolutely wonderful. I would like to thank Miss Gura, Mrs. Santangelo, Miss Speece, Miss Chrissy, Miss Bridget, Mrs. Hay, Mrs. Baldwin and Dr. Szabo for their hard work. Our students looked and sounded great!

Thank you to all of the parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles who were able to make it! Know that you are appreciated.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

Correction!

The plans for today's walk just didn't materialize with so much going on this morning. Consequently, we will be walking tomorrow afternoon. Let's hope for a nice day.

If you are planning on attending this evening's performance, plan on being here early. Parking will be at a premium. Not only do we have our own crowd coming, but it is baseball season! Students are to stay with their parents in the gym upon their arrival. They are not to go to the classrooms until their teachers instruct them to do so. Thank you for your cooperation.

Our Father/Son Night is scheduled for tomorrow evening. It is going to be a wonderful event! Hope to see you there. Don't forget about Mother/Daughter Night on Friday!

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

A Beautiful Day!

Wow! The weather certainly has changed for the better. Since tomorrow's forecast is a good one, we'll take advantage and walk around the school's property. Be sure to have your child wear appropriate shoes.

Thank you to those who made it to today's PTO meeting. Look for the minutes to be posted soon. Although the school year is winding down, there are many great events and activities planned. Thank you PTO!

The big news of the day........a field trip for the entire school! On Thursday, May 8th, all students and teachers will be heading off to Powers Auditorium to see a production of Disney's "High School Musical"! Although the cost of each ticket is $7.00, students are asked to send in only $2.00. A permission slip and more details will be sent home this week.

Don't forget about tomorrow's Spring Program for Kindergarten and 3rd Grade students. Plan on arriving early. Parking will be an issue. Students are to remain in the gym with their parents until instructed otherwise. There will be a dress rehearsal tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

Growing by Leaps and Bounds!

The greenhouse has become a very busy place! Our students have been hard at work transplanting small "plugs", watering and preparing soil. There is nothing wrong with getting your hands dirty! Inside the greenhouse you will find, herb gardens, wave petunias, inpatients, begonias and tomato plants. Within a day or two, there will be a group of pictures you can check out on this site. I will update the pictures regularly so you can see how quickly the plants are growing!

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci
