École Maple ES Family Update

Wishing you all restful holiday and well-deserved break.

We appreciate all the hard work from staff and students throughout the fall, and are excited to see what the New Years brings.

We wanted to share one final Smore for 2024, with some great pics of the fun we have had this final week.

Happy Holidays, and see you all in 2025!

The Ecole Maple Team

Mrs. Thompson is excited to come to Maple in January as princiapl. Due to a previous injury, Mrs. Thompson had surgery in December and will be cleared to return to work in January, although not for the first week. Mrs. Tiffany Mountenay, an experienced principal will be at Maple for the first week after the Winter Break. We look forward to welcoming Mrs. Mountenay as we begin 2025.

Whatever you winter break looks like, we hope you enjoy your time off, and want to celebrate all our diversity and culture at Ecole Maple!

When you join SchoolMessenger, you will be able to:

• receive imporant information from LDSB
• join classrooms and extra-curricular groups
• report a student's absence (same day and in advance)

Reporting A Student's Absence:

The new student absence reporting system will let you use a mobile app, a website, or an interactive toll-free phone number to report an absence in advance. These options are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Future absences can be reported at any time.

If your student is marked absent and the absence hasn’t been reported in advance, our new SafeArrival system will attempt to reach the student’s priority contact by telephone to confirm the absence. If our system is unable to reach the designated contacts, school office staff will follow up.
