CONGRATULATIONS TO THE COMETS BASKETBALL TEAM – 2021 D1 CHAMPIONS!!

Students are offered meals to take home to help with the days they are not in school. 

The 5 days’ worth of food consist of individual items and bulk items such as a loaf of bread, lunch meat, and milk. Please advise us if special meal accommodations are required for allergens or other special dietary needs. Meals are available for parents to pick up on Friday’s between 12:00-1:00 in the north building.  Students may pick up after school in the cafeteria on Tuesday and Fridays. Parents and students may sign up for these meals by emailing Mrs. Brunelle at tbrunelle@maplerun.org or by calling her at 527-6404. This will put you on a weekly list.  If you are unable to pick it up, please call to suspend your order for that week.  If other pick-up arrangements need to be discussed, please call her.  We understand that people sometimes forget to sign up or situations change so we will have some extras made up just in the grab and go cooler in the cafeteria.
