Preschoolers Welcome Gymsters

Our Preschool welcomed Gymsters to McGuffey last week. This was the first session at McGuffey this year. Gymsters is a company from Youngstown, owned by Elizabeth O’Hara, that comes to local schools and works with our staff to help the students learn the basic skills they’ll always need and discover the fun of physical activity. Gymsters will be back on April 14th for more preschool fun.

Pictures of our 4th Graders at the Butler

The 4th graders at McGuffey School recently visited the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio. This visit was a part of the “Our Good Neighbor” program offered through the Butler Institute. Below are some photos from the field trip. One of McGuffey’s retired teachers, Mrs. Beth Lowe, is a docent at the Butler and was there to share the exhibits with our students. Our McGuffey students were congratulated on
their positive behavior during the visit.
