Our 5th graders recently had their wax museum. Each student researched someone famous and wrote a speech explaining their accomplishments and dressed up like their person. Parents and students were able to visit the 5th grade classrooms and hear the speeches. Well done 5th graders! We are impressed by all your hard work!

It has been a tradition for us to honor our dear Maple Ridge friends, the Carr Family and their dad Nate, by holding a food drive during the holidays. The food bank is especially in need of the following items: canned meat, canned or boxed meals, peanut butter, canned beans, canned vegetables and fruits, shelf stable milk, cereal, pasta, rice. All items are greatly appreciated but the food bank especially appreciates healthy options that are low fat, low sodium, gluten free, packed in water, packed in 100% juice, and whole grains. Thanks for donating!
