Dear Maryvale Community, At approximately 1:25PM, we were notified by the Cheektowaga Police that they were searching for a suspect in the neighborhoods west of Union Road near the main campus. Out of an abundance of caution, we initiated a lockout of the Intermediate, Middle, and High Schools. A lockout means that all school operations run as normal inside the buildings, but no one is allowed in or out. The lockout was lifted at approximately, 1:50PM upon advice received from the Cheektowaga Police, Joseph D’Angelo Superintendent

Just a reminder that the Family Tech Talk is tonight at 7:00. See the flyers for details.

We would like to give a very appreciative "Thank you" to our Director of Buildings and Grounds, Charlie Milne and our entire Buildings and Grounds staff for their tireless work in the aftermath of the Blizzard. If you saw the state of the main and Primary campuses, you would understand what these folks did to clear the snow and to first make our properties passable and then ultimately useable. We appreciate you and your dedication to the kids and our district!
