Maple Families,

Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I’m so excited to join the Maple Elementary community and serve as your principal. It is truly an honor to be part of a school with such a strong sense of family and tradition.

This year marks my tenth year as a principal, and I’m especially grateful to be returning to North Olmsted—a place I once called home. I’m looking forward to connecting with all of you and getting to know both our returning families and those who are new to Maple.

At Maple, we believe that learning is a team effort between students, staff, and families. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where every child feels safe, cared for, and supported—so they can thrive both in and out of the classroom.

Every day, we encourage our students to live by three simple expectations: Be safe, Be kind, and Be ready to learn. These values help guide our work and create a school culture where everyone belongs.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions or just want to say hello. I’m looking forward to an amazing school year together!

Sincerely,
Mrs. Lynne Stark
Principal, Maple Elementary School
