Way to Go!

I am exceptionally proud of the 29 students in grades 3 and 4 who took the time to create a poster for the Juvenile Court Advisory Board's Stay in School Poster Contest. Poland North Elementary School is fortunate to have such great artists.

The posters will be delivered to Juvenile Court tomorrow. Winners will be announced by November 6th. Good luck!

Have a great day.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Box Tops!

Our school's Box Top's contest will be starting soon. Be on the lookout for more information. Last year our PTO made close to $1,000!

Tomorrow is the last day to turn in posters for the Juvenile Court Advisory Board's Stay in School Poster Contest. This was only open to 3rd and 4th graders.

Have a great week! It helps when there are only 4 days.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

It's Friday!

Quarter Day was a huge success. Thank you very much! To date, we have close to $2,000.oo! I am meeting with a representative from the Make-A-Wish Foundation next week to discuss a lot of different ideas. In addition, I have a letter for anyone who works for a company that might be willing to donate to our efforts. Please let me know. All donations are tax-deductible.

Next week is a short one. There will be no school on Friday, October 16th.
Have a great weekend.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Quarter Day!

Tomorrow will be "Quarter Day". I have asked our students to ask permission to bring in at least 1 quarter for our Make-A-Wish efforts. Look for a thermometer on our website soon that will keep you updated on our progress. This is strictly voluntary.
(I know the picture is of a penny, but give me a break!)

I was thrilled to see so many "Walk Home From School Day" forms come back already. Keep em' coming!

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Windy Weather!

It sure was windy today. Some of our little ones may have blown away during recess had it not been for our PTO volunteers and Mrs. DeLisio. Good job keeping everyone grounded ladies. (C'mon....that's a good one!) Please be sure your children are wearing coats to school. Many of our students complained about being cold, but had no jacket. Mrs. DeLisio will take our students out as long as the weather permits.

Important papers are coming home today about "Walk Home From School Day". This will take place on Friday, October 23rd. If you would like to have your child participate, please return the necessary information by Monday, October 19th.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

We're On The Move!

Today's weather permitted us to go for our first walk of the year. Everyone had the chance to enjoy the autumn air. Be sure to check out the pictures below.


3rd Graders should sleep well tonight. They worked hard on their Achievement Tests and deserve a restful evening.

1st Graders enjoyed a visit from Poland's Fire Department this afternoon. Be sure to ask them about it.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
