Reading is important and these students at Mapleton Elementary School, know just how important it is!  Each class teacher selects a student that shows evidence of great progress and good reading habits.

These children are making progress here at school as well as at home.  It is parents and teachers, the home and the school that are making a difference.  We appreciate the opportunity we have to recognize  students through the Ken Garff, " It Pays to Read Program"  Congratulations to the following students and their parents for this honor!

This week Mapleton Elementary honored those students who are "Doing Their Best" to be kind and friendly to others:  These students are going the extra mile and their teachers and other staff

members are looking for and noticing students who deserve to be honored for their efforts.  Each week as teachers are giving lessons to make children aware of the difference they can make

Mapleton Fourth Graders are flying through their multiplication facts this

year. They can remember all the multiples for numbers 2 through 9, by

singing to familiar tunes such as "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" and "Yankee

Doodle."  On the Morning of the  PTA meeting when the class was

practicing for their performance, Mrs. Katie Barth's class came to visit Mrs.

Snyder's First Grade Class. They performed their songs for the first graders

to show what they had been learning! Students enjoyed the performance and

First Grade students at Mapleton Elementary School recently celebrated Dr. Seuss Day. There are four First Grade classes this year including, Mrs. Shannon Abbott, Mrs. Kristin Holmes, Mrs. Ginnie Snyder and Miss Jeri Thompson.

We know it's Christmas at Mapleton School, when there are lost Gingerbread men being searched for.  Students decorated their gingerbread on Monday morning and by lunch the little rascals had already taken off!!!  They were here, there and every where.  This year students had a special friend from Hallmark, it was a talking Gingerbread ornament Holding a sign encouraging them to eat more candy canes. They all got a small candy cane the next day, then he told them they should eat "Christmas Carrots' mm, mm, so good. So they all got "Christmas Carrotts" for a snack.
