Thank You PTO!

I'd like to thank those who were able to make it to our monthly PTO meeting. It's such a busy month, so taking the time to attend means a lot to me and our staff. In addition, I'd like to thank the PTO and Mrs. Albert for the delicious lunch and cupcakes.

Santa's Workshop continues to go well. One thing is for sure.......Poland Union is full of shoppers! Thanks to all of the parents who have taken the time to help and shop and shop and shop and shop.....

Have a great night.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Where's the Snow?

I am getting a little worried since I am a "white Christmas" kind of guy. Where is the snow? It is hard to believe that we are in the middle of December and the weather is this nice. I looked outside yesterday and it looks as if my grass is actually getting greener.

I have received quite a bit of positive feedback about our building's partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Radio Disney. There will be quite a bit going on when we return from the break, so make sure you continue to check our website and your child's backpack for information coming home.

Our building's new website is currently under construction. I'll be sure to keep you informed.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Big News!

Information is making its way home today about our school's partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Radio Disney. Beginning in January, our building will begin accepting monetary donations for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Our building's long-term goal is to raise enough money to grant a child afflicted with a serious or terminal illness his/her wish. We'll manage to have some fun during the process. I am proud to report that Radio Disney will have a lot to do with that! Be sure to check out the information heading home. Call if you have any questions.

Our first day of Santa's Workshop went very well. I would like to thank all of the parents who made time to be here today and those who will be here throughout the week.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

The Weekend has Arrived!

Thanks to our devoted PTO, Santa's Workshop is ready for our little shoppers. A schedule was sent home earlier this week on a pink piece of paper letting you know what day your child will be shopping. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me. I'd be happy to answer them for you.

I would also like to update you on the progress of our greenhouse project. The entire project was put on hold for a few weeks, but we are now ready to move forward. I expect a fence to be installed before the end of next week. Once that is completed, we can plan for the installation of a greenhouse. I would like to point out that no taxpayer dollars have been used for this project. All funds have been either donated by our generous PTO or obtained through grants.

Have a wonderful weekend. It looks like it may snow.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Go Steelers!

Our preschool students worked hard this week and completed an awesome art project. There will be pictures posted tomorrow. I would like to thank Mrs. Bucci, Mrs. Greene, Mrs. Mayle, Mrs. DeLost and Mrs. Ray for their help.

Our Math 24 Club for 4th graders continues to go well. I want to thank Mrs. D'Alesio and her helpers for their volunteering their time. Our students are having a blast!

It was nice to see so many of our students wearing black and gold today. Let's hope the Steelers do not embarrass the Cleveland Browns too badly tonight.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Santa's Workshop!

Our PTO is at it again! Plans are being finalized for next week's Santa's Workshop where each student will have the opportunity to do a little shopping of his/her own. I'd like to thank Mrs. Kopkash and Mrs. Brant for all of their hard work setting things up. I know our students are looking forward to it.

More information and a shopping schedule should be sent home Wednesday or Thursday.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Hard at Work!

I have been hard at work this week preparing for the weeks to come. In addition, I am in the process of "fine-tuning" our building's website. You will receive information soon about these changes and other improvements to our site. I will be sure to keep you in the loop!

Have a wonderful weekend. If you happen to drive by the school, take a look at the building's new decorations. Mr. Mike was a brave enough to climb a ladder this morning and hang them.

Have a great weekend.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
