Snow Day!

There will be no school on Wednesday, February 10th due to the heavy snowfall. As of right now, we plan on being open for business on Thursday, February 11th.

I hope everyone enjoys the day off.

Thanks,

Breaking News!

I have great news to share! Thanks to the generosity of our students, staff, PTO, families and community, Poland North Elementary School will be granting yet another deserving child his/her wish. Our Radio Disney event was a HUGE success. I'd like to thank everyone who helped make the night so special. Our students' choreographed dance has made its way to YouTube. Type in Poland North and check it out. I will have a link on our site soon and quite a few pictures to share.

The Amazing Ned show was cancelled today. It will be rescheduled soon. I returned all student order forms for yo-yos.

The winter storm headed our way may cause problems tomorrow. Be sure to check local radio and television stations for news about delays/closings. Get those shovels ready.

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Snow Day!

There is no school today. We plan on opening tomorrow, February 9th. Keep your eyes on the news, too. There is another storm headed our way that may bring another 6-10 inches of snow with it.

Enjoy the day kids!

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

Delay!

Keep your eyes on this site. As of right now, our schools are operating under a 2-hour delay for Monday, February 8th. There is a possibility that school will be closed tomorrow.

Enjoy the Super Bowl!

Thanks,

Mr. Masucci

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
