 "Blessed in the man who helps his neighbor in trouble, just as he would wish to be helped in like circumstances."

Attention all Students: The library will be closed after lunch today - including after school.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
Congratulations Mill Valley Middle School for having one of the highest percentage of students walking, biking, rolling or carpooling school in all of Marin County! The rainy season is here so it's a good time to talk with your friends and parents about forming carpools. You don't have to get your new shoes soaked to stay green. Student council is making a video to promote and encourage more carpooling to school. Send your selflies or groupies of you and your friends carpooling to school if you want to be in the video. Send pictures to Ms. Thebaut at nthebaut@mvschools.org by Friday, December 17th.
