Article: New Raider Reporter Introduction
Brady Mason joins Raider Reporting staff
Hello, my name is Brady Mason. ( Seventh Grader ) I am glad to be a part of Raider Reporter this school year. I adore writing stories and making characters, my story writing is what I am passionate about. I have a sister named Shyanne Mason, she used to be an eighth grader inside of this school. I also adore drawing and sketching, there's so many things I could talk about. I love to watch sports and I will be attending 7/8 Basketball this year. - Brady Mason
Warning: Wheels to the Side on Walking Wednesdays
Wheeled riders interested in joining Walking Wednesday Raiders are on warning. Bikes and scooters move faster that walkers, and need to follow local laws, and practical safety rules. These include: Helmets at all times, bikes/scooters ONLY on the roadways, and staying safe while off sidewalks on your way to school. Walking chaperones will be focusing on walkers only going forward.

CyberSecurity Warning from MRUSD
We want to make sure you’re getting emails from Maple Run.
The Vermont Agency of Education recently alerted school districts about cybersecurity incidents in Vermont. With increased phishing activity, we are also seeing some legitimate emails from Maple Run end up in spam or junk folders.
Please check your spam or junk folder for Maple Run emails. If you find a legitimate Maple Run message there, mark it “Not spam.” This helps future emails from us reach your inbox.
Please also be careful with unexpected emails, links, and attachments, even if they appear to come from someone you know. If something looks suspicious, don’t click on it or share personal, financial, or account information.
If you’re waiting for an important email from your school, teacher, or the District and don’t see it, please check your spam or junk folder.

Thank you for helping keep our school community safe!
National Library Service: A free audiobook resource for eligible students
Did you know the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled offers free audiobooks and braille books to students whose disabilities make reading print difficult?
Students can access books through the BARD app on a personal device or receive materials by mail, at no cost. There are no lending fees or charges for shipping.
This can be a great resource for students who benefit from listening to books at home or want to enjoy more books independently.
Learn more about the National Library Service and eligibility: https://www.loc.gov/nls/
Video: Parent Drivers PLEASE Watch! ❗❗❗
We continue to have slowdowns during drop-off and pick-up times. If you or a teacher need to talk, always park in the lot and come up to the school. Please make sure you review the video if you ever do car drop/pickup. Thank you for keeping SACS safe!
