Welcome back to the Maplewood Middle School year. For those of you who are new this year, we are so glad you have joined our Comet family. Maplewood has maintained a reputation for providing excellent education in our community. The hard work and dedication of our teachers and staff along with the involvement of dedicated parents have contributed to Maplewood’s successful academic record. We have a very active PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) at Maplewood. Our activities are designed to enhance the educational experience of our students and to provide support to our faculty and staff. The contribution of your time and talents is what makes our PTO successful. There is no better way to show your child the importance of education than by being actively involved in your school.
