Thank you MPE for a very successful Walk/Bike to School Day; and your commitment to safe walking/biking routes to school while keeping kids active. Special thanks to all the volunteers, leads and chalk artists that made this event possible.

K - Meyer (2), Salva (1), Pagach (2)

1st - Bernier (2), Kellogg (1), Schindler(1)

A huge thank you to our Mills Park community! I hope those who came to the Fun Run enjoyed the day and those who couldn't join us got to hear about it from their students. We couldn't have asked for a better day, and it seemed like everyone had a great time.

We didn't quite hit our fundraising goal, but with the continued generosity of our families and sponsors, we came very close. The kids don't get to see Mrs. Pauls get slimed, but we will be able to support our school and run all of the amazing programs we had planned.

Speaking of amazing programs, we hope that you will join us Oct 13th for the joint Movie Night and Bookfair Kickoff. As always, we look forward to seeing you and your family.

We are looking for volunteers to fill the following roles. If you have any interest or are slightly curious, email president@millsparkpta.com or fill out this Google Form which contains a few more details. We promise it is a lot of fun to get involved at MPE!

Advocacy Committee Chair (and General Volunteers) - Our Advocacy Committee is in charge of our wellness events at MPE. Each of these events usually has a specific coordinator and we have general Advocacy Committee Volunteers but we need a Committee Chair to keep everyone organized and promote our motto of Healthy Body, Healthy Minds, Healthy Planet.
Yearbook Committee - We have multiple available roles who will all work under our new Yearbook Coordinator, Jahima, from gathering and uploading photos to editing pages in the yearbook to taking pictures and documenting our student clubs and competitions.
Sunshine Committee - Is hospitality and arts and crafts more up your alley? Join our Sunshine Committee and help us celebrate staff birthdays, stock our teachers' lounge with treats and more
