[edit] Charity Fundraiser hosted by "Friends with F.A.I.T.H"
The school held a charity fundraiser on April 25th, 2007 in the memory of Constable Davis Ahlowalia, a police officer who was killed in a tragic car accident along with two former Maple High School students. Nearly $5000 were raised, and as such, vice principal Mr. Foti, along with two other teachers, volunteered to have their heads shaven. All of the money raised was donated to Friends of the Poor, a charity organization that Constable Davis Ahlowalia was part of. On Wednesday, April 23, 2008 Friends with F.A.I.T.H. held another charity event at the school. This year they raised funds for Alzheimer's Research. All proceeds from this fundraiser were donated to the Alzheimer’s Association of Canada. This 2nd Annual Variety Night consisted of an exceptional show put on by the students of Maple High School along with a guest speaker.
[edit] Dramatic Productions
In 2007 "Blood Wedding" was a production put on by the schools drama department. The cast and crew competed in the Sears Ontario Drama Festival and moved on to perform at the regional level at the Hart House Theatre. They did not qualify for the next level however. The production won an award for "Cast Ensemble".
In 2008, the drama department decided to put on two shows, Leo and Mmmbeth, a completely student run production. Both competed in the Sears Ontario Drama Festival. Mmmbeth, did not move on but won numerous awards at the district level. Leo moved on to the final round and had a chance to showcase its production in Perth, Ontario.
