Thank You PTO!

Our Halloween Parade went very well. I was worried about rain when it appears I may have needed to worry about snow. We were definitely lucky this afternoon. Our students' costumes were wonderful. I feel as though we are fortunate to have so much school support. It was great to see so many parents and grandparents lining the streets. I would like to thank those who picked up their children at the end of the day for their patience. Each and every child got home safely today. Our bus drivers thought it was Christmas!

I would like to extend a thank you to our PTO, too. I heard wonderful comments from our students and staff about the ice cream sundaes. Thanks to the volunteers who helped serve ice cream, put on costumes, take pictures and walk with our classrooms. You are appreciated.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Job Well Done!

I'd like to thank the Martial Arts Training Center's Tom Ritchie for donating his time this week. Mr. Ritchie spent time with each homeroom during their scheduled physical education class and taught them some of the basics of Tae Kwon Do. All of our students were motivated and very attentive.

If you plan on attending tonight's football game, get there early. I'm sure there will be a huge crowd. Good luck to our 95 pound and 120 pound Little Bulldogs teams. They are playing in Super Bowls this weekend at YSU. Go DOGS!

Enjoy the weekend.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Get Active, Get Fit!

Our students are just about halfway through the Get Active, Get Fit School Challenge.  I am very hopeful that a large percentage of our students will turn in their recording sheets on Monday, November 28th.  A Radio Disney Dance Party is within our reach!

A note was sent home today about picking up fundraiser packages.  PTO volunteers will assist parents during schedule pick-up times. 

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

I am very proud of our students and staff.  During today's fire drill, all of our rules were followed and the building was completely emptied in a little over 1 minute.  Our fire department qould be proud, too.

Enjoy the evening.

Fundraiser Pick-Up!

Items ordered from our PTO Fundraiser will be delivered to our school on Tuesday, November 1st.  Volunteers will be on hand to help sort the entire order.  Individual orders can be picked up between 2:45 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.  Keep in mind that some of the items are perishable, so please make arrangements to pick your child's order up at school.  A student with a small order may take it home on the bus unless the school is notified that you would rather to pick it up.  Thank you.

Be sure to check out this link to vote for our building's latest contest entry!  Spread the word to family and friend, too.  Quite a bit of information is heading home today on a blue piece of paper.

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Rain Again?

It seems as if every day of school brings with it rain.  Theleaves falling from the tress outside the office almost looked like snow.  Let's hope for nicer weather next Monday.
The tiles our 1st graders painted during Family Disney Night will be able to go home later this week.  I will send a note home with our young artists to let you know which day.  The tiles are being sprayed in order to protect them. 

Have a great night!

Thanks,
Mr. Masucci

Family Disney Night!

Enjoy these pictures from Family Disney Night. Our 1st graders and their parents appeared to have a great time. I'd like to thank Mrs. Colella, Mrs. Flasco and Mrs. Zamary for their willingness to attend and participate in the evening's activities. I also would like to thank our special guests and PSHS students who helped keep everything running smoothly.



Thanks,
Mr. Masucci
