“Success in life has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It’s what you do for others.”

Students please remember that Dress Code states that students are to dress appropriately for the school environment. Pajama pants, off the shoulder shirts, short shorts, very short skirts or dresses, or any clothing worn by any student that exposes undergarments or midriffs are not allowed. Students not within the dress code will be sent to the office to change, and disciplinary action will be taken according to school policy, which could impact participation in end of year activities.

Track Team members: Please turn in your track uniform to ASAP! If you have already turned it in, see Ms. Palmer to get your deposit check back.

Writers!!!! Written compositions are now being accepted for the Memorial Day Writing Contest! Four finalists will get to read their pieces at the opening ceremony of the Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade and will also ride on the Stage Coach in the Parade! Submissions should be under 500 words in length and reflect on Memorial Day – your family’s personal attachment to the holiday, the history of it, or remembering those who have served our country. You may use any genre – poetry, essay, short story, whatever you choose. Please submit writing to nmiller@mvschools.org by Wednesday, May 17th.

Students, remember to bring your headphones to school with you every day and ensure your ipad is fully charged so that you can participate in testing over the next few weeks.
