The key to any organization’s success lies in the quality of its staff. At Maplewood, a large part of our staff is comprised of college students. Our “Senior” staff is comprised of teachers, school administrators, coaches, and parents (many of whom have spent several years as an integral part of the Maplewood team).
All prospective staff members begin with filling out an application and undergoing a personal interview with the directors. If the candidate appears to have the background and skills pertinent to the Maplewood situation, then their work references are checked completing the screening process. Next, in the weeks prior to our opening day, we conduct an extensive staff orientation so that our team completely understands the Maplewood Experience.
In addition to our fine staff, each summer we host “Teachers in Residence!” These professionals come to Maplewood and add their own insights and experiences to help your children learn about themselves and the world around them.
