Every day matters in Mapleton! Good attendance plays a crucial role in a student’s educational journey, serving as a key predictor of academic achievement and social development. In Mapleton, it's our goal to have students attend school at least 95% of the time – missing no more than nine days a year for any reason.

Happy Better World Day 2024!
Students at Trailside Academy participated in a school-wide project, putting together a walking mindfulness labyrinth for their community to enjoy for EL Education's Better World Day!
Better World Day is a student-led yearly event where students collaborate to help make a better world for humans all over the planet.
With each grade level represented, students painted rocks with positive messages and affirmations, with the hope of bringing people peace, strength, and joy.
EL (Expeditionary Learning) Education recognizes students as leaders of the present and future who will continue to grow as strong thinkers and active contributors to build a better world.
Happy Better World Day!
