"Your only duty is to do the best you can."

Lace up your feet – the month-long Green Sneaker Challenge is coming to Mill Valley Middle School.  This contest is to encourage all students to walk, bike, and carpool to school.  We have incredible treats and prizes this year. Come to the welcome table in from of the school on March 16 to receive a Green Sneaker Card.  The Green Sneaker Card will be stamped once a week for four weeks at our welcome table every Wednesday morning.  The goal is for each student to collect four stamps to be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a GoPro Camera, movie tickets, and other cool prizes.
