When Portal Elementary School Principal Dr. Laurie Mascolo announced Friday that new playground equipment would arrive in 2018, she could hear cheering children all around the school. “My kids are so excited today! We told them about it and they know it’s going to take them a couple of months, and it’s not going to be here when they get back, but they are so excited,” Mascolo said.
