Joppa-Maple Grove Beta Club partnered with Educators Rising to host a food drive for our local food pantry at Joppa Missionary Baptist Church. Students brought in nonperishable and toiletry items to restock the food pantry. Several Elementary Beta Members got to count cans and determine the winner today. Congratulations to Maple Grove 6th Grade and JHS juniors for bringing in the most items! We filled 3 cars with the many donations from our community. Thank you for your continuous support of both our schools and our community.

Hello Families,
I wanted to clarify a few things for today's Christmas Concert.
1. The concert is in the gym at JHS. (The Maple Grove School building is not open.)
2. PLEASE remain seated until all classes have been dismissed to their classrooms. I will let you know when you can go get them from their classes.
3. Students will be heading back to classrooms after the program. You will be able to sign them out from their classrooms. (Please do not take them from the gym.)
4. Santa will be in the gym lobby after the program if you would like to take your child(ren) to see him. (You will get your child from the classroom for this.)
We look forward to seeing you here.
Thank you,
Ms. Wear
