PICTURES BACK IN TIME PHOTO FOR 8TH GRADERS - CLASS OF 2022 Some photos from the past will be dredged up from the archives over the remainder of the school year. The goal will be to see the changes that have occurred in the 8th graders over the years. This photo came from a planting project that our farm-to-school coordinator (at the time, Mrs. Heather Smith) orchestrated. They were using donated organic potting soil and seeds. This second image came from a cooking project with principal Cavallo. NAVIGATORS - LAWYER Ms. Asato-Ditch submitted some pictures from their recess using the snow tubes on Tuesday, January 25th. Link to 12 Pictures. |
8TH GRADE BABY PICTURES The yearbook committee is collecting baby pictures from 8th graders. Please find a picture to have posted in this year’s book. If you don’t have one from the first year of life, then consider turning in one from the first six years or so (example - as a kindergarten student). We would like a baby picture from every 8th grader. Digital copies can be sent directly to Mr. Craib at mcraib@maplerun.org If you want to bring in a hard-copy photo you can give it to your teacher. Mr. Craib will scan the photo immediately and return it to you the day you bring it in. The pictures below are of students from a previous 8th grade group. |
VERMONT MAPLE FESTIVAL YOUTH TALENT SHOW - Sat April 23rd I am so excited that we are able to have this Talent Show this year. The scholarship money has increased and I can't wait to get it to the kids! The show will be a bit different than previously as it will be live streamed and without an audience but it will give the students a chance to perform and be awarded scholarship money!
