Just A Reminder!

Free tickets for the two YSU basketball games scheduled on Saturday, February 27th are still available. Ticket requests are due by Wednesday, February 10th. I can receive as many tickets as needed, so check your calendars. If you have misplaced the form that was sent home on January 26th, simple write your name and ticket request on a piece of paper or simple give me a call.

For the record, I want to state that I do apologize to those who do not have passes for tomorrow's Radio Disney event. I have received several phone calls today from parents requesting them. Some of these calls have come from North families. Information about this event first went home the week of October 5th. Another letter explaining how to receive passes went home the week of November 16th. Included in that letter was this paragraph:

"You must stop by the school to pick up your family’s VIP Passes! This will enable me to keep a very accurate record of how many passes I hand out. My goal is to provide you with the opportunity to receive them first, so please stop in soon to get your family taken care of. (Parents must supervise their children during the event.) Beginning Monday, November 30th, I will extend invitations to “North Alumni” who have supported our efforts in the past. On January 5th, I will extend the remaining invitations to our entire community. I will work hard until all the passes are gone."

Another letter went home on January 19th which provided specific details about the event. Information was also included on this site many times and in our school's newsletter.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

PTO Meeting!

Don't forget about tomorrow's PTO meeting. It will begin at 9:00 a.m. and take place in Room 102. I hope you can make it.

Despite the cold weather, we are thinking spring! We have received a new cedar planting station, potato planters, heavy-duty gardening tools, a birdbath, seeds, pots and a rain gauge thanks to a grant from the National Gardening Association. Over the past few years, our school has been awarded close to $18,000 in grants. I am hoping for an additional $2,000 soon! I'll keep you posted.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Check this Out!

Our friends at the Make-A-Wish Foundation were nice enough to forward me a link that showcases our building's recent efforts. Take a look by clicking here and scrolling about halfway down the page.

A reminder came home about Thursday's PTO Meeting. We have quite a bit to discuss. I hope you can make it. In addition, we'll begin selling raffle tickets for many of the baskets that will be on display Friday evening. Only 3 more days until Radio Disney!

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

A New Month!

February has arrived! We'll be looking forward to a very busy month. Look on our school's calendar for the latest information.

There are no more Radio Disney passes. After speaking to PSHS's Principal and the Poland Township Police Department, occupancy has become a concern. Tickets for North families have been made available since November. Reminders have been sent home. The event has been discussed in great length at PTO meetings, in newsletters and on our website.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

My Mistake!

I accidentally sent home information about the Tooth Fairy contest that was not correct. All entries are due Monday, February 1st! On the paper that came home, I had Monday being January 31st. With the kind of weather we are having right now, I figured I would make the correction and get us 1 day closer to spring. Sorry for any confusion.

Thank you very much for your support of this year's Book Fair. Mrs. Sabrin and her volunteers deserve the credit for its success.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Limo Lunch!

Thank you for your patience and understanding with today's 2-hour delay. Everything went very well. Most importantly.......our 14 "limo lunchers" had a wonderful time at the Golden Coral. I cannot begin to tell you how well behaved our kids were.

Since today's Book Fair schedule had to be tweaked, I want to let you know that we'll keep it open for a few hours tomorrow morning for anyone who would like to shop. Thanks for your cooperation.

Thank you,
Mr. Masucci

2-Hour Delay!

Our schools are operating under a 2-hour delay this morning. Our school day will begin at 10:20 a.m. The doors will be open at 9:45 a.m. Our limo lunch is still on! Those participating will have one easy day.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
