Towards a Literate
Culture...
Literacy is part of our school's culture -- both inside
and outside the classroom. It is more than just reading
and writing. Being literate enables one to effectively
communicate in society, it enables a full participation in
life.
At Maple HS we strive to make our students globally
literate by giving them, the tools to succeed in the
various demands of our global culture. We empower
students to become successful writers and readers, we build numeracy skills, we foster science, art and technological
literacy. We see the need to make our students media
literate in this media driven world. It is the literate
student who succeeds. The literate student effectively
solves problem both in and outside the classroom.
