A Note from Mrs. Zellner and Mr. West
Thank you to our amazing PTO for bringing back the Cincinnati Children's Museum to Maple Dale! Over the next couple weeks, every class will have the opportunity to participating in an engaging and interactive presentation. Our kindergartners will learn about the wonders of weather, first graders will explore animal adaptations and habitats and even get to meet live animals, second graders will put STEM skills to use while having fun with various engineering concepts, third graders will uncover fossils on a mock paleontological dinosaur dig, and fourth grade will learn about the Battle of Fallen Timbers by stepping into roles as the signers of the Treaty of Greenville. Wow!
Please note that both report cards have been uploaded into your child's eBackpack on Parent Portal. You can reach out to the office if you have any issues with accessing this important information.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Mindy and Keena

Art Spirit Day- Thursday, March 2, 2023
In honor of the 2023 District Art Show opening March 3rd - March 5th at Sycamore High School, we are having an Art Spirit Day here at Maple Dale Elementary. Thursday, March 2nd will be Art Spirit Day. The theme is “Art Gallery Opening.” Students may dress as a famous artist (for example, Andy Warhol, Frida Kahlo, Yayoi Kusama, Vincent Van Gogh, Jean Michel Basquiat, etc.) or a famous artwork (for example, Mona Lisa, Starry Night, American Gothic, The Great Wave, The Scream, Girl with the Pearl Earring, etc.) You can also dress as our own unique artwork or as a quirky artistic individual. Be creative and we hope to see you and your family on Opening night, Friday, March 3rd, 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. at Sycamore High School in the gymnasium for the Art Expo.
Ring in the new year with this year's best memories!
