The Maplewood Richmond Heights Early Childhood Center will get additional capacity and a 7 percent tuition increase.
The Maplewood Richmond Heights Board of Education on Thursday approved the addition of a new preschool classroom and an increase in rates for two district programs. The new classroom would be staffed by one full-time teacher and two part-time aides at a cost of $89,875. The classroom is expected to serve 20 students and to generate $89,915 in revenue, representing a $40 profit for the district. The existing half-day classroom at the MRH Early Childhood Center (ECC) will be converted to a full-day classroom, and the seed-to-table classroom will become the half-day classroom, Principal Cyndi Hebenstreit said. “What I’m hoping is that by adding another classroom, we’re going to have fewer families that are brand new to us coming into …

The Maplewood Richmond Heights theater department's spring play, "Crimes of the Heart," is a serious drama that will place actors within feet of the audience.
The Maplewood Richmond Heights theater department’s spring play this year will offer theater in the round, something new for MRH. Actually, in this case, it will be theater in three quarters: The audience for the production of Crimes of the Heart will sit on the stage alongside the set. Ninety-six chairs will be placed along the sides and the front of the stage. Theater teacher Holly Potthoff describes the play as “juicy.” The students produced Harvey in the fall, which is much lighter. “I have some talented young ladies,” Potthoff said, “and I thought, 'We did Harvey in the fall, and it was pretty fluff.' You know—big cast, just a comedy—everybody loves Harvey. But I knew I wanted to do something a little more challenging, something to …

The schedule for bidding proposed projects at the Maplewood Richmond Heights Early Childhood Center and MRH High School has been pushed back. Representatives of construction company S.M. Wilson updated the MRH Board of Education on the status of bids for renovation work at the early childhood center at its meeting Thursday night. Funding for the project will come from Proposition Y, a $9 million bond issue that voters approved in April. The company put the initial package for the project, which included approximately 75 percent of the proposed work at the center, out for bids last month. The company had intended to present the board with bids this week on Monday, but project manager Dave Schlueter said the company didn’t get the number of …
