Protect the school community
Reduce demands on health care facilities
Decrease illnesses that cannot be readily distinguished from COVID19 and would therefore trigger extensive measures from the school and public health authorities.

A BIG THANK YOU to our HUSD School Police Department, Student Services Department, Nutrition Services, and our Maple staff for delivering supplies for families in our Maple community!

This year our annual canned food drive will be from October 19th through November 20th. There will be a donation bin outside of the front office each day from October 19th through November 20th where you can donate non-perishable canned food items which will then be used to provide holiday meals for Maple families in need. We appreciate your support and giving spirit! #MapleROARs
