October is right around the corner. It is always a busy month and one with a lot of exciting activities taking place. Be sure to take a look at our site's school calendar. Just click on an event to learn more about it.
Our Tailgate Party was a HUGE success! This year's event has to be one of Poland North Elementary School's all-time best. Thank you to those who were able to attend. The turnout was unbelievable. I would also like to thank our staff for taking the time to be there. We truly do have a family at Poland North Elementary School. One that we should all be proud of. Congratulations to those who walked away with some prizes! Look for pictures of the party to be posted soon. 
I am looking forward to tonight's Tailgate Party! Plan on arriving at 5:30 p.m. Mrs. Kluchar, Mrs. Sandy and the entire tailgate committee have done an exceptional job planning this year's event. On behalf of our students, staff and families, I would like to thank you for a job well done.
The final preparations have been made for tomorrow's Tailgate Party! The festivities will begin at 5:30 p.m. behind Poland Seminary High School. Be sure to bring your appetites and a few extra dollars for our basket raffles. Those of you who enjoy playing Cornhole will appreciate our Poland Bulldog Boards. I am looking forward to seeing as many of our students as possible.
Our teachers are in the process of updating their web pages. Many of them have started their own blogs, too! We have a few kinks to work out, but are exceptionally proud of this site. Be sure to check things out! 
Mrs. Ferrick, Mrs. Kellgren and I met this afternoon to discuss a wonderful way to raise money for our building. Much more information will be heading home in a few days. For now, just clip and collect Box Tops Coupons off of many of the products you already have in your homes. For a complete list of participating products, just click! This is an easy way to earn money for our school. For every 10 box tops, our school will earn a dollar. There are plans to make this a contest and reward the homeroom and student who turn in the most.
The weather today was absolutely perfect! As a result, we took our first walk of the year. Students and staff walked close to 2 miles this afternoon without having to leave the school's property. As the year goes on, we'll continue to encourage all students to lead healthy, active lifestyles. If you have the time tonight, go for a walk with your family!
