Girls Basketball Update | JV to play two quarter games, Varsity to start around 6:15 p.m.

Our friends from Western Reserve Joint Fire District visited McKinley Elementary for lunch! Our local heroes, now besties, joined us for pizza day and recess! Some tidbits: We lost firefighter Nina for about an hour in McKinley... We found her unable to escape a group hug in a classroom! Some Bulldogs did not let a fireman off the "spinny-thingy" on the playground. AND... Poland's firefighters definitely know how many teeth have been lost this month! Seemed to be a common topic... Though it was much better than answering, "How old are you?!"

TREES = PLANTED! The PSHS Science Club contributed to the YSU Legacy Forests Project today, helping the Penguins plant over 1,750 trees today! Bulldogs have left their paw marks in this micro forest, set to provide benefits for our environment and local wildlife! Izzy broke the ground for our first tree, and Ben definitely had a record with over 20 trees planted. Thank you to these dogs for making a positive impact!
