OWNER BACKGROUND Mapleton Public Schools (“MPS”) covers 25 square-miles and serves suburban, rural, and light industrial communities in the north Denver/Thornton area. The District serves more than 8,000 preschool through 12th grade students each day in 15 schools, including one online school. Most school sites are more than 40 years old, and in need of extensive renovation. MPS is committed to raising expectations, providing choices for learning and removing obstacles for all students so that we can guarantee that each student is empowered to "achieve his or her dreams and contribute to his or her community, country and world. Mapleton’s aging facilities continue to pose challenges for a full small-by-design implementation. Addressing our facility needs and providing the safe and secure buildings our students and community deserve requires additional resources. To continue to uphold our mission and provide for the needs of Mapleton’s children, we will be submitting an application for BEST Grant funds in hope of be awarded between $4-$15 million dollars. In addition Mapleton will ask voters to approval a bond and mill levy increase in November 2016 to support new construction, improve, equip and provide improvements to District facilities.
