NEWS FROM DR. COOPER
Dear Families,
I have a few reminders about the traffic pattern for morning drop-off. Please use the right lane along the curb to drop students off. Students should not be dropped off from the left lane for safety reasons. We have had some close calls this week with students being dropped off in the left lane and running through traffic in the right lane. The left lane is the exit lane to be used once your student has been dropped off. In order to keep our students safe, we ask that all traffic follow these guidelines. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
Have a great weekend,
Dr. Tara Cooper

SCHOOL ENGAGEMENT SURVEY
Millard families,
Your opinion matters. Millard Public Schools seeks to have engaged stakeholders to meet its mission. Strategy 1.2 (2018) calls for a survey to determine engagement of all stakeholders (students, families, staff, and community). Please take 10 minutes to provide us with your candid input. Your answers will be anonymous. If you have students in multiple buildings, you will receive a different link from each school. The survey window will remain open through November 17th.

SQUARE 1 ART
Dear Families,
Don't forget to order your child's artwork. The Square 1 Art package was given to you at Parent Teacher Conferences. Now is the time to order keepsakes and gifts featuring your child's art online, if you like! Simply search for your child's art using Art Search, and enter state, school name, and your student's name. Your student's art and code will appear, and you may order!
Order by: 11/17/2023
Thank you for supporting our school!
