🏃🏽🏃🏾‍♀️Move-A-Thon Recap: Maple proudly had 27 donors raise over $3,000 for our Move-A-Thon team, though we're sure there were more through the general donation page, so THANK YOU for your support! Our activities at Maple had great engagement: we had over 25 people show up to help clean up the neighborhood and had a fun day with your kids engaging in small group activities at school.

Overall, SESSFA has only reached half of our goal of $600,000 and anyone can still donate through April 30. Donate HERE:

📢‼️ BREAKING NEWS: On Tuesday evening, the student council presented their proposal for two new water fountain stations at Maple for a variety of reasons ranging from an old system, low water pressure, long wait times for fills, and (PTSA adults’ favorite) "the basic human right for safe drinking water." In a unanimous vote by the board, PTSA motioned to approve the proposed two new fountains at Maple — installation will begin this spring!
