Maplewood Core Values

1. Our Core Values Maplewood - Our Core Values Children who are taught the fundamental concepts of discovery, community, teamwork, and fitness can enjoy a more creative and fulfilling childhood. By teaching these fundamentals to children, we help them mature and grow to become more successful, compassionate and confident in life. Children, given the opportunity to explore and learn these fundamentals in a relaxed and secure, fun-filled environment where they feel free to be themselves, become more self-aware, self-assured adults. By providing opportunities for children to explore the world and activities that surround them, we help to reinforce the process of learning and self-discovery every day. Maplewood - The Concepts We Live By DISCOVERY: a perpetual exercise in imagination and exploration, of the world, and of oneself. We promise to provide campers and students the chance to discover themselves by creating programming that inspires them to question the “what” and the “why” of everyday life, which helps them to understand how creativity and self-awareness play a role within their own maturity, and how they are an interactive part of the world around them. COMMUNITY: an environment that promotes acceptance, respect, empathy and responsibility among its residents. We strive to create a place where parents, children, and employees are welcomed and treated as family. Children enriched and challenged by the diversity of their surroundings, will be guided with compassion, enjoying the comforts of our safe and nurturing environment.

2. TEAMWORK: an understanding of active collaboration and partnership. Our mission is to teach the fundamentals of a team. Our goal: impart a sense of togetherness and hard work, teaching children how to work for the betterment of the individual and the team. FITNESS: the concept of play is a crucial part of the Maplewood experience, as we believe it creates happy and healthy children. Children are constantly provided with the opportunities they need to stay in shape and learn about how to care for their bodies. Teaching children the fundamentals of fitness is now key to creating life-long happiness.
