Poland Union hosts Donut Day event

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Poland Union Elementary School hosted their first ever Donut Day on Nov. 30.

Megan Roemer, the food service director at Union Elementary, organized the event.

“This is a special fun day totally random for the students,”

Roemer said.

She explained that once a month the school try’s to host a special event.

“We just try to do something fun for the school and to celebrate the students and the staff here at Union,” Roemer said.

Students went through a line where they were able to build their own doughnuts.

They had the choice between vanilla and chocolate frosting and between two different types of cookie crumbles.

“We’re going to need a power washer to get the chocolate off of the kids’ faces,” said Mike Masucci, the principal at Poland Union.

Students also celebrated the Poland Bulldog’s birthday at the

event.

“The Bulldog is turning 115 in dog years,” Masucci said.

Students sang “Happy Birthday” to the beloved mascot while enjoying their doughnuts.

“Next month is going to be Frozen themed,” Roemer said.

“It’s a lot of fun every time we do something.”

Bookstores and libraries invited to join in celebration of Short Fiction Day The annual Celebrate Short Fiction Day takes place on Dec. 21, and founder Nancy Christie is inviting bookstores and libraries to create their own event.

Christie explained that she created “Celebrate Short Fiction” Day to honor the short story in all its forms and lengths.

She encourages libraries and bookstores to host their own “Celebrate Short Fiction” Day events and has provided tip sheets on her web page (http:// tinyurl.com/CelebrateShortFictionDay) for those looking for ideas.

Annual Olde Fashion Christmas at Lanterman’s Mill

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Mill Creek MetroParks hosted its annual Olde Fashion Christmas event at Lanterman’s Mill Nov. 24 and 25.

According to Carol Vigorito, the park’s recreation and education director, the event has been a park tradition for decades.

“It’s basically a holiday celebration,” Vigorito said. “It’s a really good opportunity to enjoy the season.”

Lanterman’s Mill’s three levels were packed full with local vendors, entertainment and other events sponsored by the mill.

Vigorito said that there is a lot of competition to become a ven-

dor at the event, since space is limited.

She said that the park gives priority to vendors who have attended previous events, as well as hand crafted works and local art.

“We have very limited space here for vendors. So we pick and choose according to theme,” Vigorito said.

Many vendors demonstrate their craft during the event, including wooden spoon carving, leather work and a weaver.

“It can be a challenge to demonstrate here, because they are working with their hands in the cold,” Vigorito said. “So when we find a vendor willing to demonstrate we like to bring them back.”

The event takes place on the last weekend before the mill closes for the season.

Along with vendors, the park hires va r ious enter ta iners throughout the day.

Entertainers included the band One String Short, a balloon artist and a visit from Santa Claus.

Community members also have the opportunity to donate to the parks giving tree where they collect hats, gloves and scarves for the Mahoning County Educational Service Center.

Vigorito said that the park has been doing a collection for the last 15 years, and the turn out is always huge.

“Last year was incredible, we have six or seven huge containers full of items, and they really appreciate it,” Vigorito said.

She sa id t hat t he event wouldn’t be possible without Neighbors | Jessica Harker the help from volunteers.

Poland schools receive recognition of excellence

By JESSICA HARKER jharker@vindy.com

Poland Seminary High School and Middle School received the excellence in education award from the Eastern Ohio Education Partnership.

The high school was recognized for 50 percent of the students graduating from the school attending an Ohio public university within two years, and the middle school was recognized for more than 30 percent of eighth-graders receiving Algebra 1 high school credit.

“I think it truthfully speaks volumes going back to kindergarten, when you look at what kids achieve at different age levels it really shows what they learned before,” said middle school Principal David Purins.

Purins said that it is the strong relationship between a caring community and invested teachers in Poland that allows the schools to receive these awards.

“Teachers push them at every grade level in Poland to push them to be the best they can be,” Purins said.

In high school, Principal Kevin Snyder said that the school has strong relationships with local colleges that allow students to earn credits for these schools in high school.

“We try to provide opportunities for our students like dual enrollment through public universities such as YSU and Kent State. Many students build a comfort level for these schools and accrue many credits, so they decide to continue their education there,” Snyder said.

Poland High School currently offers 56 college credit plus options in classes taught by Poland teachers.

Classes are offered in math, science, social studies and language arts.

“That means the staff members have a masters degree or the allotted courses to be an adjunct professor through various colleges on top of their state teaching license,” Snyder said.

The school also invites lo-

cal college representatives to meet with students throughout the year, which helps students when they choose which schools to attend.

“I believe our staff, students and community have high standards and solid foundations and appreciations for learning,” Snyder said. “We try to take that and enhance it so that each student is given an opportunity to succeed.”

The relationship between the high school and middle school is a key portion to the success of students according to Purins.

He explained that by having students take Algebra 1 in middle school it allows them to move to higher level math in high school, or to use that class slot their senior year to explore other career opportunities.

“Our teachers do a fantastic job offering our students opportunities to success,” Purins said.

“It provides choice to those students and parents.”

Since students at the middle school essentially skip eighthgrade math, Algebra teacher Janice Hohloch from the Middle School said that a close relationship between middle and high school math teachers is essential.

“We meet once a year and I always ask them to let me know if

the students entering geometry as freshman are missing any information,” Hohloch said. “We want to be sure our students are always prepared.”

It is through this ongoing communication and an adoption of the College Preparatory Math model, CPM, that allow Poland Middle School students to be successful.

“CPM is a program we adopted four years ago that allows students more creativity in problem solving,” Hohloch said.

She explained that the model allows for group work, and unique problem solving opportunities that assist students in growing their mathematical understanding.

“We expect our kids to critically think. We expect them to see a problem and understand multiple approaches to that problem,” Purins said.

Hohloch, Purins and Snyder all emphasized the importance of a strong community support system that allows both schools to be successful in their push for academic excellence.

“It is always great to be acknowledged by outside parties to confirm the compliments we share with staff and students.

It was truly an honor,” Snyder said.
