Maple Grove Summer News
Maple Grove Elementary: Home of the STARS!
I hope you have enjoyed this first half of the summer with your child/ren! It is so refreshing to spend time together enjoying the outdoors. I have four children, so my husband and I made it a goal to visit every state park in Indiana together as a family. As of this summer, we have just one left! There is so much beauty right here in our own state. We also had a chance to relax on a beach two weeks ago for the first time in two years, so I am extremely grateful for that as well. As the saying goes, the days are long but the years are short when you are a parent. The second half of the summer can often feel like really long days with kids on break. It is always a blessing to have them home, but a blessing to get them back in school in August as well! We will be sending out a detailed newsletter as we get closer to that first day back, but for now enjoy these last few weeks of summer break. Below are few important pieces of information to look over prior to then.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Brooke Phillips
Principal
New Maple Grove families:
Who is my child's teacher for the upcoming school year?
Important note: parent input forms are due each year after spring break (they are available via our school-wide newsletter each spring). We cannot accommodate additional requests at this point in time as lists have already been divided with academic and social needs as well as teacher and parent input taken into consideration. Thank you for your understanding.
