Achievement Test Information!

3rd and 4th grade students are bringing home important information regarding spring's Achievement Tests. Please be sure to read over the information and call if you have any questions.

Our 3rd and 4th graders are looking forward to tomorrow's field trip to the Chevrolet Center to see the Mahoning Valley Phantoms take on the U.S. National Team.

Please keep in mind Spring pictures will be taken on Wednesday, February 25th. SMILE!

Thank you,

Mr. Masucci

Think Spring!

Thanks to our friends at Zellers Greenhouse in Hartville, Ohio our students will begin working in the greenhouse next week. Zellers donates flowers and soil to our school every year. Five years ago the owner called after finding out about the greenhouse and said,"As long as kids are getting their hands dirty, you come here and get what you need. No questions asked!"

Today's trip was a productive one. In addition to soil, our school was given geraniums, impatiens, petunias, begonias and snapdragons. We'll have some pictures of our gardeners up soon.

Thank you,

Mr. Masucci

Special Announcement!

Let's see who is checking out our website today. The "virtual" Mr. Masucci has an assignment for those willing to do a little extra work. Be sure to check it out. All assignments are due tomorrow. Be sure your name is on your paper before putting it in the mailbox outside the office. I'll check the mailbox shortly after 8:30 a.m. Have fun!

Keep sending those empty aluminum cans to school. It is appreciated.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

Today's News

Today's weather may not have been perfect, but at least it didn't snow. There were still a lot of children out sick today. Let's hope everyone can return to school soon.

I hope the information regarding the Green Team's Placemat Contest made it's way into the hands of adults yesterday. This annual contest for grades 1-4 is a great one. All poster ideas are due back to school by Monday, February 23rd or Friday, February 27th depending what grade your child is in.


Have a great day. There will be a "secret assignment" on tomorrow's VOKI. Shhhhhhh! Let's see how many complete it.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

A Busy Day!

It was just one of those days! Before I knew it, I looked up to find it was almost 2:00 o'clock. That means our little darlings were busy and well behaved today. There were close to 40 kids absent today and quite a few who were sent home because of illness. Let's hope everyone gets healthy.

Be sure to check out the information coming home today about the Green Team's Placemat Contest. Our students can and do win contests like this one. Unfortunately, kindergartners are not able to participate.

Thank you,

Mr. Masucci

Windy Weather!

The windy weather may not have come as a surprise, but it certainly complicated our day. Our 2-hour delay went very smoothly. I'd like to thank everyone for their cooperation.


Today was a busy day. It was our 100th day of school. PTO provided ice cream sundaes as their valentine treats. There were Valentine's Day parties in all of the rooms, too. Needless to say, our students were excited. Good luck during the 4 day weekend!


Because of the delay, today's PTO meeting had to be cancelled. It will not be rescheduled. We'll make up for it in March. Please be sure to mark your calendars. Our next meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. on March 5th.


Happy Valentine's Day!
Mr. Masucci
