PICTURES OPEN DOORS The Open Doors program is in action again, although operating with smaller numbers and on fewer days. These pictures are from week one of the November session.

NOTICE: The Maple Run Unified School Board seeks 3 parents, 3 students, 3 community members and 3 staff to participate on the School Resource Officer (SRO) Study Committee. This committee is charged with developing a well-supported, fact-based recommendation regarding the SRO position in the Maple Run Unified School District. The committee is expected to examine the SRO role in ways that may accommodate, as much as possible, the concerns of all parties with a goal of a consensus recommendation being the objective. The following questions will be answered by the Study Committee: • What do we want the roles/responsibilities or our SROs to be? • What roles/responsibilities are they performing now? • Are these roles/responsibilities being met as we would like them to be? • Who else could fulfill these and/or how else could these roles/responsibilities be met? • What is the recommendation as to how the role/responsibilities deemed necessary are fulfilled? Interested parties should download and complete the application found here: https://5il.co/msp3 and return it to Brenda Comstock bcomstock@maplerun.org no later than December 10, 2020. |

YEARBOOK COVER ART WANTED Hello 8th Graders and other artists. The yearbook committee is starting to put together the 2021 yearbook and we are asking for your help. A cover design for the yearbook is needed by Tuesday, November 10th. If you have creative ideas and original artwork to share with us, then let us know right away. We want the blue and white school colors to be used for the artwork. The back cover should also use the school colors. There should be room on the front cover somewhere for a title and date, and on the back there should be room for a quote. We welcome inspiring quotes even if you don’t want to submit artwork. These are cover samples from recent yearbooks. Your submission may look completely different. Thank you for the help and if you have any questions, or are looking to submit cover art or a quote, then please contact Molly Clark at mlclark@maplerun.org or Mr. Craib at mcraib@maplerun.org |
