 Thank You!
    Thank you to everyone that attended conferences this week, it was great seeing the halls of BFA filled with members of our community again. Thank you for working with us to support the students and their success.  It is a great way to check in with teachers and to meet the people that come into contact with your student every day.  If you were unable to make this week's conferences, please know that you can always contact your student's teacher if you have any questions or concerns.  

    Thank you to all the teachers and staff for working late into the night on Wednesday and Thursday to work and support our community.  

                                                                                                Sincerely,
                                                                                                Polly Rico, Principal

Senior Update


Attention Seniors and Families:

We’re off to a great start to your senior year! Here’s a recap of what we currently have in the works regarding graduation:

  • September - October. Cap and Gown Forms were handed out at the September Senior Class Meeting and have been submitted to Balfour. If you missed the October due date, I have ordered extra sizes that will be available. Payment will be due in June when you pick up your cap and gown ($25, check made payable to Balfour).

  • November. The Diploma Name Google Form was sent out to seniors for completion by the end of November so that I may place the order for diplomas. Here is a link to the form: Diploma Name Form

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at 802-527-6400 or email me at tcallan@maplerun.org.


Sincerely, Theresa Callan, Graduation Coordinator
