Maple Avenue Middle School August 2021
Welcome Back to School! (Shortly)
We are gearing up for your return to school on August 19! We are every excited to see you, and to hear all about the fun that you had this summer. Before school starts, we want to remind you that we have some "Back to School" events this week, and we hope to see you there!
Student Schedules
As of today, August 9, you should be able to access your schedules for the new school year in the Sapphire portal. Also, if you have not had the opportunity, please view this video as it will help you to understand how to read your schedule as well as some other important information.
We worked diligently to honor the student course requests that were submitted in the spring, and we are asking that you do not call to request schedule changes based on preference. Conversely, we ask you to reach out to us if you notice an error in your schedule, so that we can make corrections before the start of the school year. Please keep in mind that schedules are subject to change. Continue to check your portal for updates.
Please contact the office if you need assistance accessing your schedule.
