Maple PTO would like to thank all of our past and present students and families for their fundraising efforts over the last five years.

Because of your support and the generosity of our community, Maple was able to build a beautiful pavilion on the playground. The pavilion not only provides much-needed shade, but also serves as an outdoor space for classes to meet and extend their learning. None of this would have been possible without your continued support.

This year’s fundraiser will focus on raising funds to purchase additional seating for the pavilion. Be on the lookout during the week of September 29th for the kickoff of this year’s Maple Madness Fundraising Event!
