Our very own Mrs. Barth was selected and invited to present at the National Science Teacher's Asssociation Conference in Atlanta, Georgia this past weekend. She was able to share with thousands of other educators from across the country the work she did for her Master's thesis while teaching 4th grade a few years ago on creating water chambers to generate clean and usable water. Way to go Mrs. Barth!!

The winners of the Mapleton Elementary writing contest were just announced. There is no shortage of creativity at Mapleton. There were many amazing stories turned in.  All entries will become part of the Mapleton library collection and will be available for kids to check out. Congratulations to all of our incredible authors!

In March the 4th graders took a little trip to Hogwarts via the library. They each received a wand, could choose their Patronus, and have their picture taken for their own Sirius Black Wanted poster.

The library has really been hopping the last few months. In February, the 5th and 6th graders tried library speed dating and discovered some great new books. There were also a lot of brave souls that went on a "blind date" and took a chance on something different. It was a wonderful way to get kids reading books they may not have tried.

We had another succesful turnout for Dudes & Donuts! Students were able to read books while enjoying a donut. We handed out over 600 donuts!!! Thank you for supporting this great program.

After several months of preparation, our school play "Peter Pan Jr." will be running this week, March 6th - 9th, at 7:00 p.m. General seating will be available starting at 6:30 p.m. We are grateful for all the efforts of the students, directors, set and costume designers, and everyone who has made this play a success!

These students were selected as our Mapleton Elementary Students of the Month for February. They are wonderful examples of following the school and classroom rooms, being kind and respectful to others, and being responsible with their actions. Way to be Mapleton Mountaineers!
