A message from our principal

Nick Duffy

Welcome to Maple Grove Elementary!

I am so excited to welcome our students, families, and staff to the newest school in the Cedar Rapids Community School District. Maple Grove encompasses the former Truman and Jackson attendance areas. Our new building is the result of thoughtful planning and intentional design using brain research and information on how the environment benefits learning.

We are dedicated to providing a safe, collaborative, supportive, and caring environment in which all learners can thrive and grow.

Our Mission
At Maple Grove Elementary, we educate, elevate, and empower every learner!

Our Vision
Work Together; Grow Together!

Our instructional philosophy at Maple Grove Elementary is rooted in research and best practices. We are committed to serving every learner and supporting their total development as we strive to enact a guaranteed and viable curriculum that is grounded in student mastery and responsiveness to individual student needs.

As you walk through our halls and see our classrooms, you will see collaborative learning, smiling faces, and hear the joy of learning. We will work together every day to ensure that we have a school that you are proud to send your child to. It takes all of us to create the school we desire. I look forward to your involvement in our PTA, as a volunteer, or by being in tune with your child’s teacher to help support your child in their development.

I look forward to partnering with you as we make Maple Grove the place to be!
