On December 22nd, several Mapleton City police officers stopped by Maple Ridge to wish the students a Merry Christmas, and even brought the students a treat.  

On Thursday, December 23rd, students at Maple Ridge sang Ghristmas songs around the tree.  

On Wednesday, December 20th, the school choir performed for the PTA during their meeting.  The choir is under the direction of DeAnn Sanders and Kristine Kirk with Denette Steen accompanying the choir.

Not only are the students excited for Christmas this year, but the faculty are as well.  Throughout the week of December 19-22, faculty members are celebrating by dressing up in their Christmas bling, or wearing their ugly Christmas sweaters.  Treats and lunches are also being provided to the faculty by the administration and several of the teachers. 

On Monday, December 19th, a combined sixth grade orchestra from Sierra Bonita and Maple Ridge Elementaries performed at Sierra Bonita Elementary.
