Memorial books
One way the Mapleton Elementary School expands its library collection is through donations of books presented in memory of a loved one. The school has books that can be purchased in memory of someone, or families can purchase a book of their own choosing. For more information on this service, please contact the school at 764-1589 and leave a message for school librarian Lisa Dean.
