Dear Maple Avenue Families,

Suzanne PyszkaPlease take some time to browse through our school resources. The Parent/Guardian School Handbook can be found by clicking Publications. This documents provides valuable information regarding school operations and answers the frequently asked questions. Cubby’s Corner is our weekly school newsletter. Families that provide their email address to the school office receive an electronic copy of this weekly newsletter via email. Also each classroom teacher has a webpage that can be accessed by clicking the Faculty/Staff link. These are just a few examples of the information that can be found on our website. If you prefer to talk to someone, feel free to call our Main Office and a staff member can help answer questions or clarify information.  

 A strong partnership with each family makes a difference in a child’s education. We invite and encourage your involvement and contributions to the school’s program and its operations. A great way to get started is to contact the classroom teacher or an administrator and we can share more information about program needs and find out more about your interests.

At Maple Avenue, students will learn and grow in an environment where they feel happy, safe, and valued. Thank you in advance for your part in making our elementary school a great place to learn.

Best regards,

Suzanne Pyszka, Principal
