Inclement Weather Information (Link)
There may be occasions when attending school due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances may not be advisable. Student safety and learning is always the top priority for Millard Public Schools. With that in mind, Millard Public Schools will utilize a few options including:
- cancelling school
- late starts
- eLearning days
The district will communicate with staff and families when we may need to utilize one of these options.
Late start days will begin exactly 2 hours later than the normal school start time.
During an eLearning day, students stay home. An eLearning day allows for the scope and sequence of the coursework to stay on track, minimizing disruptions to the learning process by leveraging technology, digital tools, and other educational resources.
JDRF - Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation
Today your child will be given a packet outlining the instructions for participation in the JDRF Fundraiser. Fundraising is totally optional and students have been instructed to have the conversation with their family regarding the possibility of participating this year. On October 25th, we will conclude the JDRF Fundraising with an all-school walk. Each student will participate in the walk to promote awareness while also practicing healthy lifestyle habits.
PTA Reminder
Don't forget to sign up for the "Trunk or Treat" event!
