Our Community Service Projects
Community service is an essential part of a Maple Elementary School education. Click on the titles below to see the many ways our students help in our community.
Coins for Caring
Kids Heart Challenge is sponsored by the American Heart Association and raises money to help kids with special hearts. The Kids Heart Challenge (formerly known as "Jump Rope for Heart") has been a part of Maple for many years. In the Spring, on May 29, 2020, students will participate in the Kids Heart Challenge. They can ask for donations from family and friends to donate to the Kids Heart Challenge Association.
This year Maple has teamed up with TCSD schools throughout the city of Tulare to support Friends of Tulare Animal Services. Friends of Tulare Animal Services is an organization dedicated to supporting Tulare Animal Services by improving the welfare and well-being of animals in our community. They provide assistance in the form of promoting adoption and fostering programs, organizing events, raising awareness about responsible pet ownership, supporting spay/neuter initiatives, and transportation. Join us in supporting such an amazing organization by purchasing your 23-24 UFG shirt that we wear every Wednesday to show that we are United For Good!
Canned Food Drive
Maple, together with schools across the district, collect toys and canned food for those who in need of a little extra help during the holiday season. Students can bring in canned foods or non-perishable items to be collected and donated within our community in the Fall and Winter.
Tulare Police Department - Toys for Tots
During the month of December, students and staff can drop off new, unwrapped toys in the office. The office has a bin for collection and the Tulare Police Department picks up all donations. These toy donations go to needy families in the area for Christmas gifts.
