Thank you so much for joining us last week for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week.  Our parents really stepped up in a big way to give thanks to the Mills Park team.  Between the food, snacks, supplies, and lunch coverage, the teachers surely felt the love.  Thank you again for making this a truly fantastic community.

This it - the end of our Health & Wellness month is near! This short week involves our 4th bingo sheet themed Safety. 

Classroom BINGO contest ends Saturday

Submit any and all BINGO sheets by Saturday's fair (this includes Parent and Teacher sheets). The sheets will be tallied and the winning classroom will be announced Monday morning. Remember you will receive points for the number of boxes completed not only the number of BINGOs completed. The prize is a 45-minute session at Balance Martial Arts on Sunday, March 4th at 4pm. The winning classroom - teacher included - will have a karate lesson mixed in with fun and games. 

Here's a quick recap with helpful links:
