Letter from the Interim Principal
❤️🖤
Dear Maple Mustang Families,
As we ease into some cooler weather, please calendar some of our upcoming events. Check the fliers below for information on our Dia De Los Muertos Celebration, and more events. We need your help and donations!
Please remember, we have a strict NO Cell Phone Policy and starting 10/12, in 4th - 6th grades, all phones will be collected at the door and placed in a pocket chart for your child's safety and rule compliance. Thank you for your support with this.
Thank you and have a great week!
With kindness, joy, and Mustang pride,
Mrs. Saul
Interim Principal
Maple Elementary School
❤️🖤 Go Mustangs!
District Policy Reminders
District Policy Reminders
Anti Bullying Pledge/ Spanish/ Policy:
We have ensures that our students know we do not allow bullying in FSD and at Maple. Encourage your student to be an Upstander, to actively stand up against bullies by sharing with an adult to help.Please make sure that you and your student have signed out Anti-bullying Pledge and return to your child's teacher.
Physical Contact/Conduct Policy:
At Maple, my first priority is to ensure that our Mustangs all feel Safe and Welcome at school. This safety comes with an understanding that we respect each others personal space at school. Please remind your students that Mrs. Saul does not tolerate Physical Contact/Aggression at school. I am actively logging incidents, writing referrals with consequences, and contacting families should incidents arise. With our Home - School partnership, we can make sure all students feel safe at school. I appreciate your support with this.
FSD as a whole district has adopted a 'No Cell Phone" Policy. Your students may bring devices to school, but remind them they need to turn them off and safely store with their teacher. All 4th - 6th grade students will be asked to place their phones in a pocket chart labeled by number. We can not guarantee the safety of a phone in a backpack. If a phone is found on a students person, it will be confiscated and parents will have to pick them up at the office. This is also for the safety of our students at school and online. Thank you for helping our Mustangs feel safe at school by reminding them of our No Cell Phone Policy.

Parking Reminders
Please give yourself grace and plenty of time for parking. For everyone's safety, we ask that you do not double park or block other cars. Also, remember to always use crosswalks! Also, we have had many cars blocking the bus zone to come into the office. Please do not block the inlet in the front of the school as we have numerous bus drop off & pick up throughout the day with our preschool and TK-6th grade programs.
If you bring your child lunch, we ask that it is delivered at least 5 mins before student lunch time and please make sure your child knows, as the office will not call classroom as it interrupts instruction.
Friendly reminder, early pick ups will not happen during the last 15 minutes of the day. Please plan accordingly. We appreciate your understanding.
Dia De Los Muertos Celebration is comming up on October 23rd. Come Plan with us!
