Some of our cute second graders during December!

Many of our students participated in our Maple Ridge choir this year. They did an AMAZING job and brought the Christmas spirit to our school. A big thank you to Mrs. Couey, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Berbert, Ms. Jordan, Ms. Spencer, and Mrs. Southam for leading the choir and practicing each week with them! @maple_ridge_elementary_pta

Maple Ridge students enjoyed visits from the Maple Mountain High School band and choir this holiday season. Thank you to these high school students who came and shared their talents with us! @maple_ridge_elementary_pta @mmhs_goldeneagles @mmhs.choirs










Don't forget...Friday is an extra early out day. School is out at noon.


Third grade students at Maple Ridge were visited by a member of the Springville Rotary who generously donated a dictionary to each one of our third graders. Thank you to the Springville Rotary for such an awesome donation.

Congratulations to these students for being chosen as Students of the Month for November. They were recognized for being thankful. (Not pictured: Cumorah Hansen, Beau Scarbrough, Eleanor Wright)

Congratulations to Maple Ridge 4th Grader, Jovie Bowen. She was the 3rd place winner in the Nebo School District Christmas card contest. Seth Sorenson from the district office came and presented Jovie with a cash prize. Congratulations Jovie!

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!


Maple Ridge Choir Concert is Wednesday, December 11 at 6:00 p.m. See the flyer for more details.


Students who have been participating in choir will be performing for parents on Wednesday, December 11, at 6:00 p.m.


If you need an idea for a gift for your teacher for Christmas, the PTA is sponsoring "Wish Upon a Star". Trees are hanging outside the teachers' doors and stars include things off of their wish list for their classroom. If you would like to, you can take a star off of the teacher's tree to provide that item for the classroom. We are grateful for such a supportive PTA and generous parents! @maple_ridge_elementary_PTA


Before the Thanksgiving Break, Maple Ridge students enjoyed our annual "Gobble Off" competition. One person from each class was chosen to gobble on the intercom and the students listening voted for their favorites. Our winners were: Milo Machado, Steele Hansen, and Edgar Carreno. They each won a turkey to take home and share with their families, Stratton Briggs and Quinn Bowen were runners up and won amazing turkey hats! We had a great time. We are thankful for all our Maple Ridge students!




We had a great night at Culver's this week. Thanks to everyone who came to support, for the PTA who arranged everything and the cute kids who helped serve!



These cute first graders in Mrs. Williams' class finished their unit learning about Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. They also learned about Judaism, Christianity and Islam. They made pharaoh headdresses, created gods with animal heads and labeled them with hieroglyphics. They also made menorahs, nativities and the five pillars of Islam. We are learning so many cool things this year!






Congratulations to these students for being recognized as Students of the Month! These students were recognized for being supportive. We are proud of them! (Not pictured: Bronson Burgon, Gwen Kingsford, Hudson Nielsen, Dylan Maciel & Parker Machen)

Congratulations to Mrs. Schmidt for being the Crystal Apple Award winner for Maple Ridge this year. Mrs. Schmidt is one of our special education teachers. She is super knowledgeable and works hard to make sure all of our students receive the support they need to be successful. She supports teachers not only with academic instruction but with behavior interventions as well when needed. The best thing about Mrs. Schmidt is how much she loves and cares for her students. We love you, Vanessa! Thank you for all you do to make Maple Ridge such a great place to be.
