To enroll your child in a public school, we will need a copy of their Birth Certificate and immunization record (or a notarized medical or non-medical exempt form.) Please bring these documents to registration night or email them to marss@isd2135.org.

If you turned your documents in when your child completed the Early Childhood Screening, you do not need to provide them again if the screening was completed at Maple River. 

No, we would not need them again if your child was screened through Maple River Schools. If your child received their Early Childhood Screening elsewhere, we would need to have copies either submitted in the form or emailed to marss@isd2135.org. 

As of now, everything is on schedule, but with construction and moving, things can get off track. So make sure you read all communications from the school. We will try to communicate all changes via email. Please ensure we have your correct email address. Follow us on Facebook too, as we will also post updates!

Some children are not ready for kindergarten, and that's okay! If you are unsure if your child is ready we have a few suggestions:

1. Talk with your child's preschool teacher. They will have some great insight for you regarding your child's skill level. 
2. Check out the "Is your child ready for Kindergarten" graphic on this page. The desired skills for an incoming kindergartner are listed there. 
3. If you are still not sure, you can always register your child for Kindergarten and wait until this summer to make your final decision. 

Besides you, your child's kindergarten teacher is one of the most influential people in your child's education. We currently have four wonderful Kindergarten teachers, Mrs. Sindelir, Ms. Drees, Ms. Drewek, and Mrs. Kastenschmidt. 

We partner with Palmer Bus Services for our district's transportation needs. Debbie and Karen do everything they can to make your child's trip to and from school safe! During the back-to-school conferences, Palmer Bus Service will be there to greet you and provide your child with a badge they can attach to their backpack. This badge helps our staff and Palmer's staff know which bus your child should be on. We will also have extra staff available the first week to help guide all of our students, especially our new kindergartners, to the correct bus. We will also have additional staff ride the buses the first week!

This summer, a transportation survey will be sent to collect information needed to create the bus routes. Please make sure you complete it. 

As a parent, you are an essential piece to your child's education, and we want to support you in that role as best as we can. We have a few technological supports that may help you to do this. 

Maple River Schools Website- There, you can find learning links, staff directory, district news, calendars, Campus Portal, Registration, and Online Payments.

Facebook- District announcements and happenings will be posted here. 

Campus Portal- Campus Portal will be an excellent resource for you. If you register for Kindergarten, an email will be sent in late summer with a link that will allow you to sign up for the Parent Portal. This access will allow you to view lunch account information, attendance, and grades. 

Online Payments- is another resource. Here you can register for activities, add lunch money, and pay additional fees throughout your child's school career. We will be transitioning out of this and moving all payments to the parent portal this year. 

Contact our school nurse's office at dvolsen@isd2135.org and they will provide you with a form to complete.
