We are very excited to announce that live streaming is coming to the Joppa-MG school district for the 2025-26 school year. Beginning next week, all athletic events in the gymnasium (volleyball and basketball games) will be streamed on the NFHS Network. Please note that this is a subscription service through NFHS and games will be uploaded for “on demand” viewing so you can go back and relive those great moments. When subscribing, be sure to choose “Joppa-Maple Grove” in your profile under the “Support a School” tab.

You never know what you'll find in Dr. G's office. Cache and Annabelle, both 5th graders, each pulled a big card this week as part of the school's new "Quarterback Club" that helps rescue old library books from Maple Grove Elementary School. Students donate a quarter, take home a book, and then get to pick up free sports cards in the Superintendent's Office. The money goes back into the Library Fund - a true "quarter back" program. Cache pulled a Michael Jordan and Annabelle found a Caitlin Clark card. Close to 200 quarters have been donated since the start of the school year. #Elevate38
