Principal's Message

In November we see many opportunities for quiet reflection and growth. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our staff, students, and families for the ongoing support, committment and work being done in our community each and every day so that our students have the best possible educational experiences we can offer.

I would also like to express, on behalf of the Maple Street Magnet School Staff, thank you to those who have served our country and to those who continue to serve.

I hope everyone takes time this month to reflect on the many amazing things we have accomplished and continue to celebrate our success, no matter how big or small!

Be well and Happy Thanksgiving,

- Dr. Mahoney
