Millis athletics is switching from NFHS to HUDL starting February 4th. Watch girls and boys basketball along with other sports in the fall and spring by installing the HUDL app on Apple or Android. In addition, the app can be found on SMART TVs like Roku, Amazon Fire Stick and more. No subscriptions needed for the rest of the 24-25 school year. Many schools have gone to HUDL (might require subscription for their home contests), but some might still use NFHS, so please check both.

Click on the link below for more information.

Go Mohawks!

Please use the link above to view their work. On each slide, you will also have the opportunity to leave "fan mail" for any artist. Please consider taking a moment to send a positive note to keep these students excited to continue their artistic journeys.
