Maple Avenue New Student Orientation Information

The Four Houses: Columbian, Excelsior, Hathorn, and Red Spring

  • To make the school more personal for our students we have four houses; Columbian, Excelsior, Hathorn and Red Spring.
  • Each house has a school counselor, house secretary and grade level team of teachers in the house hallway.  The same services and options are offered in all houses.
  • Once you are assigned a house you will move to the different grade levels within the house each consecutive year, creating a sense of familiarity and community. Lockers for each house are assigned by house and are generally near the house hallway.
  • A phone is available in the house offices for students to use as needed throughout the day.
