Staff Highlight

Mrs. Janet Boniface, Junior and High School Art Teacher, graduated from Western Michigan University with a Fine Arts degree before returning to earn her teaching certification. Drawn to Maple Valley’s small-town, family-like atmosphere, she loves helping students discover how creativity can be a relaxing form of self-expression. Outside of teaching, she enjoys cooking and spending time in her garden during the summer. Her advice to students is, “Be true to yourself. Don’t be what someone else wants you to be.”
