Millcreek This Week

We seek your cooperation in maintaining a safe and secure environment at our school events and facilities. Recently, there have been incidents involving the operation of motorized scooters and bikes on district property, particularly at Hanlon Field at McDowell High School. Students have been riding on the turf and courts and navigating through spectators during events. These activities pose safety risks and increase the potential for injuries to students, families, and guests. While students are permitted to ride motorized scooters or bikes to school events, they are required to turn off and walk their devices once on district property. As indicated by posted signage, the operation of motorized scooters and bikes on school grounds is not allowed at any time. We kindly ask parents and guardians to review these expectations with their children prior to attending events. Our intention is to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants and spectators. For students who do not adhere to these posted rules, disciplinary measures may be taken. Thank you for your understanding and support in helping us maintain a safe school community.

As part of the upcoming renovations to the McDowell Athletic Complex (MAC), a new paver plaza is being planned for the stadium entrance. The Gus Anderson Legacy Plaza will feature engraved pavers that are now available to purchase and customize! All purchases support the renovations, which include necessary updates to the track, bleachers, addition of visitor bathrooms, turf drainage and more.

Leave your mark on the MAC and purchase a paver in honor of an alumni, your graduating class, or yourself! Purchase a paver or make a general donation here: Sponsorships & Naming Rights Opportunities

Did you know? Many of the pages on our new website have "subpages" that break out additional information related to a specific section or page. On a desktop, if you "hover" over a section title, a drop down menu will appear with more options. For pages that have subpages with more information, you will see an arrow (>) next to the page name in the dropdown menu. When you hover over the page name, a second drop down menu will appear with the subpage options.

Please note that a drop down menu does not appear for the Families section. This is due to the large number of resources in this section, so it instead will redirect to an alphabetized index of pages.
