Dear families,
With Halloween just around the corner, I wanted to once again take a moment to remind students, families, and staff about the need to be thoughtful and inclusive if selecting a costume to be worn at school. The choice of costume should always be respectful of the diverse cultural and lived experiences of all the members of our school communities and should align with the district’s stated commitment to inclusion, anti-racism, and equity.
Please note that the cross-country races scheduled for Thursday, October 24, 2024, have been moved to the Albion Sports Complex, as the original venue (Golden Ears Park) is no longer safe to use due to the heavy rainfall over the past weekend. All race times remain the same.
Dear families,
I hope you’ve had a restful and enjoyable summer, filled with time to recharge and make cherished memories. We were thrilled this week to welcome back our returning families and extend a special greeting to those joining our school community for the first time. (more…)

On July 11, 2024, we shared with families that the school district would be changing the child care operator at six of its existing sites – Edith McDermott Elementary, Eric Langton Elementary, Glenwood Elementary, Maple Ridge Elementary, Fairview Elementary, and Maple Ridge Secondary.
Since then, we have heard from many families currently accessing these child care services.
Dear families,
As the 2023/24 school year ends for most of our schools, I am also concluding my first 100 days as the new Superintendent of Schools for the Maple Ridge – Pitt Meadows School District. The goal of my first 100 days was to prioritize learning the culture and context of this district. Our annual District Highlights magazine does a wonderful job of capturing some of this culture through the stories of our schools. I invite you to explore these stories here: https://bit.ly/3VHRLui
