Joppa-Maple Grove is proud to support our Veterans through an upcoming Honor Flight, and we need your help!

We are asking students and families to create thank-you cards and letters to be given to Veterans during their trip. These messages are incredibly meaningful and often become a highlight of their experience.

Students may create:
✉️ Thank you for your service letters
🇺🇸 What a Veteran means to you
❤️ Patriotic messages of appreciation

Cards can be handmade, typed, or written—anything patriotic and heartfelt is welcome!

📅 Please send all cards to school by May 5th

Let’s come together to show our veterans how much they are appreciated for their service and sacrifice ❤️🤍💙

Two of our students recently had the incredible opportunity to attend a weekend leadership retreat at New Hope Camp with the local Rotary Club!

👏 Congratulations to Jaelyn Clark and Addison Miller for representing Joppa-Maple Grove! During the retreat, they explored what it truly means to be a leader and discovered the many different ways to lead and make a positive impact.
💚 A special shoutout to Jaelyn, who returned this year as a counselor, showing outstanding growth and leadership!
We are so proud of these young leaders and can’t wait to see all they accomplish! ✨
