Submitted by becky.manning on Tue, 03/07/2023 - 23:06

Ms. Crandall's third grade class recently had a reading day celebration where they had a “book tasting” escape room. The students read books in 4 different genres, fiction, non-fiction, biography, and poetry and wrote menu reviews. Many of the students had not read biography or poetry books and had the chance to give them a try!

Kindness Month at Maple Ridge

Submitted by becky.manning on Wed, 03/01/2023 - 13:31

February was Kindness Month at Maple Ridge. Throughout the month our student council gave us challenges to work on and planned activities for Maple Ridge students to participate in. They challenged us all to SMILE, COMPLIMENT, and INVITE each week during the month. Our student council decorated the halls with kindness quotes to remind us all of the importance of being kind. Students wrote kind things they had done or someone had done for them and hung them on a sign that was displayed at the front of the school. They also wrote thank you notes to people they appreciate during lunch.

Submitted by becky.manning on Thu, 02/23/2023 - 08:47

All Nebo schools will be open on the regular schedule for Thursday, February 23, 2023. We truly appreciate the city, county, state, and district personnel for their diligent work in our recent storm across our district. Please remember that school closures are rare. In most cases, school will remain in session even with Utah's climate. Because weather conditions may vary greatly in different neighborhoods and on different streets, we encourage parents to make attendance decisions for their own students.
