The Owners
Maple Tree Day School is owned and operated jointly by Dave and Julia Hagen,
I Julia, run all day to day operations, programming, staffing and enrollment. I am normally found at the front desk when not assisting or directing in classrooms. Dave, my husband, handles all program accounting and finances.
Together, we have made South St. Paul our home for 20+ years and have raised 3 'almost adults'.
Maple Tree Day School is not on;y a business but a deep personal commitment to ensuring a most personal experience. We recognize the importance of running our school with integrity, professionalism, and transparency. Families deserve this, our students deserve this.
Directors Notes:
I’m so proud of My ‘Maple Tree’. We are just like that Little Engine that could. I started this ambitious venture 7 years ago and I am continually amazed at what a little ingenuity and a whole lotta heart can accomplish. Maple Tree Day School is a thriving, vibrant school. I love that District Educators seek us out for their own children. 25 % of our clientele are Teachers themselves!! I tell myself on those days when the play dough gets all mixed up and listening ears are turned off that if these Educators who I love and admire so much are consistently bringing their kids to us…well on those days I take a deep a breath and say…We must be doing something right!!!
