A Message from the Security Manager
I wanted to take this opportunity to send out a big thank you to all of our parents. From the parents of the Daisies and Brownies, to the parents driving students on field trips, to all of our parents who exercise great patience during arrivals or dismissals. 2019 has been such a great year and I know 2020 can be another safe and stellar year at Park Maitland if we all work together. It is because of your efforts and willingness to work with faculty, staff, and other parents that makes Park Maitland such a safe and special place.

As we move into the holiday season we want to make sure that we are all safe and have joyous times with our friends and families. Let’s continue to practice the safe habits we demonstrate here at Park Maitland as we travel during the holidays. Please don’t text or engage in any activities that will distract you while driving. Ensuring the safety of you and your family is the greatest gift you can give us here at Park Maitland. 

Have a great holiday break! 

If you have any questions please feel free to email me at:  jjohnson@parkmaitland.org  or call (407) 647-3038 x248.

Thanks you in advance for your cooperation, and lets all work together to ensure the safety of the students, parents, faculty and staff of the Park Maitland School! 
 
Sincerely,
Jesse Johnson
THANK YOU to all who participated in our Toys for Tots toy drive. Students collected over 1500 toys and earned a dress down day to take place on January 9th! Students at our holiday assembly were full of cheer as we celebrated the amazing 'spirit of giving' our students showed during this fundraising event.
Congratulations to our Spelling Bee finalists. These students will have the honor of representing their grade during the school Spelling Bee on January 16, 2020!
