Join us from 5-8 pm tonight for Maple Ridge PTA's Zupas Night.  Don't forget to let them know that you are with Maple Ridge in order to have our school benefit!

Come join us in the gym or front foyer for parading costume fun!  Our parade will begin at 9:15 am (ending with a special number by 4th grade) so students will need to come dressed in costumes ready to go.  Costume guidelines include:  no weapons or gory items, no messy face paint, and please follow dress guidelines.  Hats, wigs, and colored hair will be fine for costume purposes.  Students have been instructed to keep costume G-Rated.  We are looking forward to a fun Halloween event.

Mrs. Rasmussen's 4th graders learned that minerals are used in many household items. As a fun example of this students made their own toothpaste.

Our fifth graders celebrated Colonial Days last week, wrapping up their unit on the colonization of America. They played games, churned butter, danced and made toys that colonial children played with.

Mrs. Olson's class has been up to some fun things over the last two weeks. Last week students participated in a S.T.E.M activity. Their task was to build the tallest tower they could using 20 sticker dots and 12 index cards. The students did a great job of persevering and doing their best, even when it got tough. Later that week the students were visited by Miss Spanish Fork and Mini Miss Spanish Fork who read them stories to build character education skills. #S.T.E.M #MapleRidgePride #Perserverance
