Looking ahead to November, MTMS will hold our annual Veterans Day commemoration on Friday, November 6th. We invite families to submit the names of their loved ones who are veterans or are active-duty service members to be acknowledged at our school program. Additionally, we invite local veterans and current service members who are close to the MTMS family to join us for donuts beginning at 7:45am followed by our school-wide assembly.

Please click here to share the name of any veteran you would like us to acknowledge and/or a veteran who will be attending.

Spelling bee season is right around the corner. The first qualifying rounds take place in ELA classes in November. Students, you can begin studying now with the word lists posted to your ELA teacher's Canvas page.

Relay for Life’s annual Thrift for a Cure Community Sale will be Saturday November 14th at Mill Valley. All proceeds go to the American Cancer Society. Come out and shop some incredible items and enjoy the bake sale and coffee truck while you’re here. You can donate gently used items to the sale throughout the month of October. Bagged/boxed items can be brought to the front office of Mill Valley during normal school hours. Thank you for supporting our fight against cancer!

We're closing out October with Red Ribbon Spirit Week. There will be prizes each day for best dressed students AND staff. Students, start planning your fits now!

On October 8th, 15 MTMS students attended our fall community service project. In one hour, we turned 600+ plastic shopping bags into two sleeping mats for the homeless! The plastic bags were woven together to create plastic ‘yarn’ that will keep some homeless people warmer in the wintertime. Thanks to all who participated, and please be on the lookout for more community service projects in the future!

This week, the Voyagers participated in a Day of Service. They sorted donations at The Starfish Project, packed over 6,000 hygiene products at Giving the Basics, and put together 280 food boxes for senior citizens at Harvesters. It was a great experience to give back to the community!

MT's first Staff vs. Students volleyball competition was held on Thursday! While the staff put forth a valiant effort, MT's 7th & 8th grade volleyball players pulled off the win! Thank you to Adam Benlon who served as our referee, all the staff and student volunteers for being good sports, and Ms. Cassell for her exceptional organizing skills! The students were an amazing audience with their ear-splitting enthusiasm!
