Mill Valley Weekly
Thursday, May 14th, 2026
Hello Mill Valley Families,
We are proud to share the results of our parent satisfaction survey which came in at a 4.61 out of 5!
Mill Valley Elementary is dedicated to upholding our district mission of Every Student Learning,
Growing...Succeeding. Your input on the survey gives us an opportunity to reflect upon our
areas of strength and areas in which we can grow.
Here are some areas you said were working well (highest rated statements):
I am happy to have a child enrolled in this school. (4.72)
This school is kept clean and well-maintained. (4.69)
This school provides a safe setting for my child's education (4.68)
School office staff are welcoming and helpful (4.67)
The teachers, staff, and administration at this school genuinely care about my child (4.63)
I am informed about significant dates, activities, and events at this school (4.63)
Next are some areas that survey results showed the most growth (Last year results → this year results):
My child is learning, growing and succeeding at this school. (4.49 → 4.56)
I feel comfortable communicating with school administration. (4.54 → 4.61)
In the next few weeks, the staff will take a closer look at the survey results and identify areas for improvement. We value all of our families and will continue to grow in our service and dedication to you.
In Partnership,
Allyce Harris

Summer Learning Academy (SLA)
2026 Summer Learning Academy Update (May 2026)
Please read on for important information about the 2026 MNS Summer Learning Academy, including All-Sport Academy, Fab Lab, June Swim Lessons, Muskego Power, Volleyball, Cooking Stories, Kitchen Quest, and Micro-Entrepreneur.
If you requested classes during the priority registration window:
Families who made requests for 2026 MNS Summer Learning Academy programs during the priority registration window can now view their child's schedule in Campus Parent. Please see the linked instructions HERE to access schedules.
A reminder that course requests were not time-stamped, and any classes with more requests than available spots were filled by lottery. Alternate course selections were then used to complete student schedules. Given the high volume of course requests, we tried to place as many students as possible in their first choices.
Due to low enrollment numbers, Elementary Music was removed as a course option. Those students who registered for Elementary Music were placed in alternate courses.
Due to high demand for the Introduction to Cheerleading course, an additional section was opened during Session 2. Although we still are not able to honor all requests due to capacity limitations, we were able to adjust many student schedules to provide this exciting new opportunity during Session 2.
Scheduling for Cooking Through Stories and Kitchen Quest is still being finalized at this time. Communication will be forthcoming when complete.
Transportation
If your student is scheduled for classes at the Bay Lane location, but you have not yet identified a transportation option (including dismissal plan such as parent pick-up, walking, etc.) please do so on the following form. This is critical information for us to report accurate, reliable numbers to Dairyland so they can reserve the correct number of buses per shuttle location. In addition, this info is needed for us to plan staffing to coordinate supervision for parent drop-off/pickup, bike riders, and walkers.
Withdrawal from SLA
If summer plans have changed and your student will no longer be attending SLA, please email john.mcewing@muskegonorway.org. Many classes are at capacity, and withdrawing your student will open up an opportunity for those on the waitlist. Thank you!
Late Registration/Wait List requests:
Beginning now, families who did not register during the priority registration window may request to be placed on the waitlist for classes. Many classes are now filled and others have limited availability. Click HERE for the SLA Catalog. Please use one of the following Google forms:
