Mill Valley Weekly
Thursday, September 10th, 2020
Hello Mill Valley Families,
It's been a great week! We have now visited every classroom at Mill Valley to read Lucy's Mask. This is a book where Lucy wears different masks to be different characters such as a detective or explorer. The best part of the book is when Lucy learns that she is a super hero by saving the world by wearing her mask to keep others from getting sick. We also discussed all the ways students can be safe at Mill Valley in order for us to stay open.
Don't forget - tomorrow is Patriot Day. Please wear red, white and blue.
Sincerely,
Robin Schrot, Principal
Allyce Harris, Associate Principal
Thinking Students...Changing the World!
Important Information
Please note that we continue to update our Parent FAQ document with relevant information. We encourage you to take some time to read it thoroughly. Please don't hesitate to contact Mrs. Schrot, robin.schrot@muskegonorway.org or Mrs. Harris, allyce.harris@muskegonorway.org with additional questions.
We need your help!
Reminders...
- Please do not arrive early for morning drop off. Drop off begins at 8:55am and we do not have adult supervision outside before the bell rings. If you arrive before that time, students should remain in the vehicle until staff are present.
- We are asking for those picking up, to not arrive until 3:25pm. Please keep in mind, our students are still in class until that time. Back up onto Hilllendale has been occurring due to parents/guardians arriving early (between 3:00-3:20). Reminder, parent pick up goes until 3:55pm. HINT: There is no line at this time. :)
- In order to get as many cars into the parking lot, please pull up as closely as possible to the car in front of you.
New to Mill Valley Elementary
Meet Mrs. Setzke - Interventionist
Hi All! My name is Mary Beth Setzke. I live in the town of Waukesha with my husband Dave, and our four year old Australian Shepard, Leo. We have two boys, Christopher and Jonathan, who are still in school working on their PhD. I retired from teaching first grade this past June at McKinley Elementary in Wauwatosa.
I love to ride my road bike, camp, travel, and read! I just could not stand to be away from kids, so I’ve decided to join you all on a part time basis as an interventionist aide. I’m looking forward to meeting and working with you all at Mill Valley!
