School Reviews
5 10/10/2025
The teachers are of quality material. The only problem with Mapleton is that there is no industry in that school district. There are a few select tax payers in the school district that say and do whatever they can to not support any property tax increase for the schools. Most of them own lots of land. Some very good people have come from Mapleton. I would not think for a minute not to suggest to people to please raise your children there, unless your child has a special talent, then they need to attend the school that offers to support that talent.
