Odyssey of the Mind - World Finals!

4/28/2025 10:50 am

This year Mills Park has 4 teams going to Michigan to represent our school in the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals tournament!

The students have worked incredibly hard since last October and are very excited to take their performances to the next level.

The coaches of the 4 teams are working together to gather funds to help pay for the trip. They have set up a GoFundMe, and all the proceeds will be split evenly between the teams to help pay for tournament registration ($3750 per team) and shipping/transport costs for all their props and backdrops. Also, if your child hasn't done Odyssey and you are interested in getting more information so they can be part of all this fun, please reach out to the Odyssey coordinator (Lin - mpeom@millsparkpta.com).

Mr. Rood is planning for Field Day and needs your help! Our Field Day this year will be Thursday May 15th (Grades K-2, ECS, Pre-K) and Friday May 16th (Grades 3rd - 5th). Please visit the link below to sign up to volunteer your time to help on field day or if you're not able to attend you can help donate cups, bottled water, or gift cards for materials. Please make sure you pay close attention to your child's classroom teacher name, as each time is different grade levels and 1st, and 4th grade a split up at two different sessions. Feel free to sign up for one session, two sessions, or all day on both days! Your time and help are greatly appreciated to help make Field Day (the student's favorite day of the school year) successful!
