“Confidence is sometimes rooted in the unpleasant, harsh aspects of life and not in warmth and safety.”

Students: Please remember to bring headphones or earbuds with you every day in your backpack, as they are required for testing. Of course, you should also have your ipad and ensure it is fully charged.

Attention 8th Graders: The deadline for Stinson Beach Field trip forms and Graduation Dance Party forms and donations has been extended to Wednesday, April 25^th. Please turn them in to your Panther Time teacher.

Spring is here and May Day is just around the corner!
For May Day, MVMS partners with organizations that support respected elders & seniors in our community. How can you help? Throughout the week you can donate any gently used vases at the front office.  Your vase will be repurposed into a beautiful and memorable gift to seniors in our community. You can also come next Monday, April 30th at lunch and help arrange gorgeous bouquets with us, with flowers donated from Whole Foods, Trader Joes, and perhaps even from your garden! Stay tuned as we highlight how you can get involved this year in May Day and join in this wonderful, longstanding community service event!

The Mill Valley Parade Committee is seeking student essays – 500 words or less – on any topic that has to do with Memorial Day (family history of military involvement, service to the country, Memorial Day memories, etc.).

Two to three essays will be selected and these students will get to read their essays at the start of the parade, and then ride on a special opening vehicle in the front of the parade.  It is a big honor!!

Please submit essays to Ms. Miller at nmiller@mvschools.org by May 18, 2018.
