We still have plenty of slots open for you share your best breakfast dish! Each year, the PTO sponsors the Staff Appreciation Breakfast. Our parent volunteers create wonderful hot dishes/casseroles, etc. to be served to the staff. I have heard rumors this is their favorite event of the year!! This event will be held on Monday, May 6.
Please help us succeed with another great meal for our wonderfully talented staff at Maple Dale. You can sign up using the link below:
You can drop off your dish to a volunteer in the driveway of school between 7:30-7:45 on Monday, May 6, and we'll do the rest!!
End-of-year All Pro Dads Breakfast - May 8th
Please join us at the last Maple Dale Elementary All Pro Dads breakfast of the school year on Wednesday May 8th from 8-9am in the school cafeteria. This free monthly breakfast is sponsored by fathers, Chick-fil-A, and the PTO.
The meeting theme is honesty. Honesty is a core value that we should teach our children. This quality will breed trustworthiness that will lead to later success as they grow. If your children want to be hired by future employers or build healthy relationships, they have to be trustworthy.
If attending, please RSVP by Sunday May 5th via the link below so the correct amount of food is ordered.

Technology Safety Talk is BACK at Symmes Elementary - May 8, 2019
Are you questioning whether your child should have a phone, Ipod, Ipad, Chromebook or any other electronic device at home? What apps are appropriate and how can we keep our children safe while using electronics?
Keeping our children safe in this digital age is a concern we all face as parents, especially with the easy access to electronics that our children have.
