Maxson Highlights 🌟

Dear Maxson Families and Friends,

As October comes to a close, we look back on a wonderful month filled with creativity, school spirit, and fun activities. From our Unity Day celebration to festive classroom projects, it’s been amazing to see our students learning, growing, and working together.

As we move into November, there’s so much to look forward to! This month brings new opportunities for learning, family involvement, and giving back to our community. It’s also a time to pause and reflect on all that we are grateful for — our students, families, and dedicated staff who make Maxson such a special and caring place to learn every day.

The Tzu Chi Mobile Clinic will be on campus starting Friday, November 14, offering medical, dental, and vision services for students and families. Please remember to return permission slips to the office, your students teacher, or Room 2 as soon as possible!

Thank you for your continued partnership in helping our students grow, thrive, and achieve their full potential.

📵 No Cell Phones at School 📵

Why No Cell Phones at School?

At Maxson, we want our students focused on learning, friendships, and fun—not screens. Cell phones can cause distractions in class, take away from valuable learning time, and sometimes lead to problems like lost or damaged devices.

By keeping school a cell phone–free zone, we help create a safe, focused, and supportive environment for every child. Thank you for partnering with us to put learning first! 💙✨
