Winter 2024-2025
Welcome to Maple Leaf Elementary, where every child matters, everyday counts, and together, we thrive!
Thank you all for a fantastic first quarter! We greatly appreciate your patience and flexibility as we transition to Infinite Campus. Parents can now view their child's progress online through the Infinite Campus app or website.
This year, we’ve also implemented a standards-based report card. While your child will still receive a traditional overall letter grade, each subject will also include a score of 1, 2, or 3 based on their performance in specific learning standards. For example, if your child is expected to identify the main character in a story, they would earn a 2 for "meets expectations," a 3 for "exceeds expectations," or a 1 if more practice is needed. Looking ahead, after Thanksgiving break, we have just three short weeks until Winter Break. Please ensure your child is dressed for the weather, as students will continue to have outdoor recess whenever possible.
We are excited to share that the state’s recent "value-added" data shows our school exceeded growth expectations in all areas, including 4th and 5th grade math, ELA, and science. This is a huge accomplishment, and we couldn’t have done it without your support! Lastly, we’d like to invite you to join us for Winter Wonderland, hosted by the District, on Friday, December 13th at the High School.
Thank you again for your ongoing partnership in your child’s education. We wish you and your family a joyful and restful holiday season!
Sincerely,
Paul Glazer
