Maple Avenue School

We made the choice when purchasing a home to be in the Maple Ave district. Our son started in Pre-K last year and is in Kindergarten this year. We have had such a positive time. Each teacher has shown him understanding, caring and have started him on a great path for his schooling.

We have a wonderful playground and a vibrant, energetic after school program. It's our neighborhood school.

I have had two children attend school at Maple and feel that it is a positive school. I have felt very welcome by teachers and very included in my child's education. I especially recommend the Pre-School program. It is wonderful.

I also feel that Maple Avenue School is an excellent school. Not only are the teachers amazing but the parents are also great! My son has excelled and thrived and I am so pleased to be sending my second son there this year as well. The teachers I have come in contact with are wonderful and caring. Every Monday morning they have a special Morning Program where the whole school gathers to celebrate achievements, school pride, birthdays for the week, and much more and parents are invited to Morning Program as well! I could go on and on but we'll leave it at this - a home away from home for children to thrive!

Maple Avenue School has been wonderful for my 3 children. In the 2 years they have been in the public school system, they have exceeded most of the NYState standards and have scored at or above 90% of national averages on state tests. I normally do not participate in surveys, etc, but after reading someone's comment about not enough parent participation, I had to comment. I have volunteered in 2 different classes. Parents are not only encouraged to help but they are necessary. School is not just about parties and cookies and donations. It is a huge part of these kids' lives and occupies most of their time and energy Sept-June. It is vital to be a part of it. Maple welcomes all parents to be a part of their school and depends on them.

teachers dont include the parent in holiday activitys such as participation...they consider partipation means giving money.
