Superintendent reports Maplewood outcomes; board weighs paying for communications mailer
Summary
Superintendent shared Maplewood enrollment and academic highlights and presented a communications-class mailer with an estimated production and postage cost of about $2,200 and asked whether the board wanted to proceed or seek donor support.
During the superintendent's report the board received an update on Maplewood and discussed a student communications-class mailer. The superintendent said, "Maplewood had 10 Waterloo students at the end of the year with a 4.0," and reported Maplewood's enrollment figures for the 2026–27 school year.
The superintendent also presented cost estimates for a mailer created by the communications class: "To print those flyers, it would cost about $900," mailing prep about $260, and "postage would be approximately 1000 dollars, maybe $1,100 for a quantity of about 2,600, and the cost would be about $2,200." The board discussed possibly seeking a donor or sponsor and the superintendent said she would look into donor support and continuing the project, possibly as a quarterly newsletter.
Why it matters: The Maplewood enrollment and student achievement figures provide context for program planning; the board’s decision on a communications mailer affects outreach and budget allocation for parent/community engagement.
Next steps: Superintendent will seek potential donors or sponsors and return with a recommendation on whether to proceed and how to finance the mailer.
