Letter from our Dean
Dear Maple Village Families,
 
Please join me for Discussion with the Dean on Friday, February 1st from 9:00 - 10:15 a.m. in the Grove.  The topic will be The Gift of "No".  Please read this article ahead of time.  This will be applicable to all ages.  This is a time for adults only and is free!  Bring your favorite beverage and an open mind.  RSVPs are helpful.

Also, please save the date and line up childcare for our annual Experience the Grades on the evening of Tuesday, February 5th!  This is a once-a-year chance to come and be a student for an evening in a lower grades and upper grades class and allows an inside look at how we teach.

Have a wonderful weekend!
Lisa
