Students of McGuffey were asked to write essays telling what Christmas meant to them.  Our own Suzan, who is an 8th grader was chosen from McGuffey.  Suzan received a certificate, rode in a carriage during the Christmas parade on Friday, December 2, 2017.  Suzan also had dinner in the Mayor’s office, received a hat, scarf and gloves embroidered with “Spirit of Christmas” and lit the Christmas tree in the square with Mayor Franklin. Well done Suzan!

Six of McGuffey’s students competed in the Trumbull County Challenge 24 Tournament; Kasey Benson, Max Burns, Jaylan Brown, Suzan Hunt, Chase Leonard and John Waldman.

Kasey, Suzan and Max advanced to the semi-final round in the 7/8 grade division of the Tournament.

Congratulations to all for their hard work and to Mr. Lloyd for his tireless Mentorship of our students!

On Thursday, November 16, 2017 our fourth grade Peer Mediators received their graduation certificates after participating in classes.  These mediators work with Mrs. Redmond to learn how to help other students mediate issues in the classroom and the hallways.

Congratulations to everyone!

Our Veterans Day Program was held on Friday, November 10, 2017.  Students in 7th and 8th Grades were able to invite family members to who served in our Armed Forces or who are currently serving, to our program to be honored.  We were very honored that so many Veterans came to be applauded.  McGuffey is equally honored to have staff members who are Veterans; Mrs. Ryser, Mr. Reppart, Mrs. Nielson and Mr. Blair.

Thank you to our choir for your lovely performance.
