Drop off and pick up reminders
When using the quick drop off lane in the morning or afternoon, please do not bypass buses that are lined up to get in to school. Please line up behind the buses and wait for them to move forward. Here are the complete Maple Avenue pick up, drop off and parking guidelines.
Students need to bring winter gear
A reminder to families that as the temperature continues to drop, students are required to wear winter coats, hats, and waterproof gloves. Knit gloves, although convenient, do not provide protection against cold temperatures and wet snow. Boots and snow pants will be required as soon as we get measurable snow on the ground. Now is a good time to start looking through your winter gear to see if new sizes are needed. Thank you for keeping our students safe and warm.
