Talking School Design with a Kindergartner

Earlier this month, a kindergartner named Finn created what he thought could be a new version of Maple Hills, complete with redesigned rooms, invisibility, sail boats and a mix of other new spaces he wanted to include. The plans caught the attention of the district’s Director of Capital Projects, Tom Mullins, who went to the classroom to see them in person.

Moments like this are a good reminder of how much creativity students bring to their learning, and why creating space for those ideas matters.

Meet Principal JoEllen Tapper

Hi, Eagle families! One thing I love about being a principal is walking around the building and visiting classrooms. My absolute favorite is when I get to read a story to the students! A few fun facts about me: I particularly enjoy the children’s book called “The Book With No Pictures.” I would love to live on a sailboat and sail around the oceans to see whales, dolphins and all sea creatures! When I was in high school, I played the piccolo in the marching band.
