• Jacket: With the fall weather here, we ask all students to bring a jacket to school every day. Please write your child's name on the inside label of the jacket.

• Nurse Jodi Tips: With cold and flu season approaching, here are a few reminders

• Your child needs to be symptom-free (no puking, no diarrhea, and no fever) for 24 hours without medication.
• Practice washing hands.
  
• Practice covering your cough/sneeze.
• Have your child practice blowing their nose.
• Intruder Drill: This month we will be having an intruder drill at Maple Grove. As part of our commitment to safety and security preparedness at Maple Grove, we will be conducting an intruder drill on Friday, November 13. Students will be instructed on how to respond in the event that an intruder would enter our building. The goal of this exercise will be to practice our emergency procedures.

Parents and Veterans are welcome to attend! The students have been working hard to prepare a wonderful presentation for all Veterans, Active Duty Military, and guests!

In the mornings when dropping off students in the car rider line, please pull forward to the farthest spot {red sign} or as far forward as possible. Please do not pass other cars when they are dropping off their students. There have been a few fender benders in the parking lot due to parents passing while others are dropping off. If everyone will please pull forward as far as possible in the mornings, this should alleviate this issue.
