Letter from our Dean
Dear Maple Village Community,

Thank you to Pam Villano and her team for an incredible Spring Rummage Sale!! We not only had a blast and redistributed used goods to new owners, we also earned $1,200 for MVWS! Thank you to our landlords as well for letting us use a spare room for our collection of items. It is events like this, pulling everyone together for the good of the school, that make us so unique.

The last week of school is upon us!! There are so many events happening, so please make sure to read the bulletin and take note of our calendar. We have an upcoming Shady Trees class play, last-day-of-school beach and park day, Storytelling Workshop on Saturday, and Summer Camp (spaces still available for all ages)!

We have posted our 2016-17 School Year Calendar, so you have a preview of next year’s special events, holidays and conference days. Also, please see the side bar for specific dates for Orientation. In order to accommodate families with different ages of students, we will be doing it a bit differently this year, holding two separate orientation evenings - one for Early Childhood and one for Grades.

Our office will remain open through June with regular hours, and we will post summer hours soon.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Lisa
Please note that there will be no Grades or Early Childhood Aftercare on the last day of school - Friday, June 17th!

Wanting ideas for telling stories with your children?

Wishing to incorporate storytelling at home but not sure how?

Facing an issue with your young one and not sure how to address it?

Join Miss Anne for an interactive workshop that will help you incorporate storytelling into your family life. The workshop focuses on stories that are most useful for early childhood (ages 0-7). Good sense and research show that storytelling in the home is universally important and practical-- no matter the age of the children or adults in your home!

The workshop will focus on:

  • benefits of storytelling at home
  • types of stories to use with your children
  • tools to juice your creativity
  • how to craft original stories for use in your family
  • creating a story to use at home now

To register for this workshop:

Please email Miss Anne [anne@maplevillageschool.org] and let her know you will attend. Your payment will secure a spot in the workshop, space is limited! Payment may be dropped off with Alice at Maple Village, please bring exact change (or personal check made out to Anne Coyner).

Please register by Friday June 10th and arrive on Saturday by 8:50am to sign in, as we will begin at 9:00 am sharp. Bring a notebook, pen or pencil, and an open heart! Light refreshments will be provided.

*Note in order to focus on discussion and due to the interactive nature of this workshop, this is an adult only event.
