Snow Day Information

Every Student, Every Day

As we transition from summer to the 2024-2025 school year, we want to remind our Neshaminy families that every student's attendance, every day, is crucial to their academic success. We need your support to instill the habit of regular school attendance. It's important to understand that students who miss school frequently are at risk of lower academic achievement, failure, and even dropping out. Click on the links below to read letters to Neshaminy families about the importance of regular attendance and specific information on Neshaminy attendance policies.

Food4Troops

Please help Mr. Weldie collect items for our deployed soldiers through Food4Troops. 

• We collect various items that are needed by our deployed soldiers and ship those items all over the world to whatever outpost they may be assigned to. 

• During past campaigns, some care boxes have even arrived by parachute and have been flown to aircraft carriers.

• This past Fall, I collected extra Halloween candy at Maple Point and, with assistance from my WIN students, shipped boxes to our soldiers stationed in S. Korea (Mr. Weldie was deployed there as a young Army MP), and also on a ship.

• We are transitioning now from candy to the list of various items requested most often by our soldiers (see below).

• The cost to ship each priority mail box has risen to $19.15. The postage is usually greater than the value of the items in the box. This is a true community effort.

• If you'd like to help, please send in anything you can from the list.

• Financial help is welcome too, as in the past years we have shipped up to 30 boxes (which would cost about $600 this year).  Feel free to participate in any way you're able to or would like to; everything is welcome. Thank you!

Canvas is our new online learning management system. Information and instructions for students and parents can be found here.

From the SWPBIS Committee

We are excited to announce that Maple Point Middle School has kicked off their SWPBIS program this school year.  SWPBIS stands for School Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports.  The philosophy behind this program includes reducing problem behavior, increasing student engagement, improving academic performance and improving family involvement within the school district.  We are looking for donations to reward positive behavior in students and staff.  The SWPBIS program can only achieve its goals with the generosity from members of our community.  Without these donations, creating the SWPBIS program would not be possible.

Since the start of the SWPBIS program, we have relied on the generosity of individuals like you.  We ask you to consider a donation to our program.  Any contribution is welcome, as students are constantly being rewarded for their MP3 behavior.  (Examples of gift cards: Five Below, ITunes, Chick-Fil-A, Amazon, etc...)  Checks made out to Maple Point and cash are also welcome.  We hope that you will support our efforts.  Any donations can be brought to school with your child and delivered to the main office during the school day.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.
