The major focus of our Parent Association is to help raise funds that support curriculum-enriching activities, services and materials for the students at Maple Ridge School. We do this by running fundraisers like cookie dough and healthy hunger as well as a Casino every 18 months.
As a parent or guardian of a student attending Maple Ridge School you are automatically considered a member of the parent association and have voting rights at meetings. We greatly encourage you to attend these monthly meetings as we make many important financial decisions regarding school-based initiatives. Parent Association meetings are held virtually and are immediately after school council meetings.
Funds raised through the Parent Association have been used to support:
· Mobile Smart Boards
· Storage/charging cart for tablets
· Future residency programs (examples - art, theater)
· Yearly allowance per teacher for classroom supplies
· Funds to cover cost of upcoming Science Olympics
· 3D printer
· Coding kits
· Online music resources
· Library resources
· Home reading books
· Bussing for future field trips
· Staff appreciation gifts
· And much, much more
