Welcome to Maplehurst Middle School
Home of the Huskies
We are excited to welcome all huskies at Maplehurst Middle School. This document provides important information concerning our values, beliefs and corresponding expectations that will continue to support our school in becoming everything we envision for our community. Our Guiding Principles inform all members of the Husky community of our shared obligations and responsibilities and reflect the guidelines of Policy 703 (Positive Learning Environment), Policy 322 (Inclusion), and the Education Act.
Maplehurst is a welcoming environment for all community members that values inclusion of diverse peoples and ideas, reconciliation, and renewal of the relationship with Indigenous peoples and worldviews, equity among all people, plurilingualism, and pluriculturalism. We value excellence and diversity in learning, wellness, and community. Every decision we make will be based on our values.
Our Husky community will support each other to envision the impact we have on the world. This is an endless cycle of continuous improvement.
Our official mascot is the Husky and it was chosen by our student body as it represents strength, hard work, intelligence and the willingness to function as a pack or team. Our school colours are grey with accent colours of gold and
light blue.
At Maplehurst Middle School, we support each other in the development of positive life skills and habits as we strive to realize our impact on ourselves and our community. The development of self-awareness is an individual challenge and we encourage Huskies to personalize their journey through Maplehurst Middle to their passions, talents, and abilities. We will all participate to inspire, guide, and support each other as we acquire new skills, increase our level of wellness, and develop responsibility. Our Husky community will celebrate each other as we envision the impact we have on the world.
Our official Husky mascot is named Maple. The Husky was chosen by our student body in 2019 when our values were identified by our community. The Husky represents strength, hard work, intelligence, and the willingness to function as a pack or team. Our school colours are grey with accent colours of gold and light blue and these colours are proudly displayed throughout the school. The new grade 5 and 6 Huskies will be involved in naming our second mascot this fall.
Our school community is looking forward to welcoming grade 5 this year, making Maplehurst Middle a grade 5 – 8 school with approximately 750 students and 80 staff. Maplehurst offers many unique learning opportunities within our innovative learning spaces. Our school has a library learning commons, music rooms, a cafetorium with a stage area for student talent, science labs, art rooms, technology and culinary labs, a triple gymnasium, multipurpose rooms, student leadership spaces, student support areas, and 30 modern classroom spaces. We made the move into our amazing facility in January 2020.
