Exciting News:

Mills Park Elementary PTA has been selected to receive $2500 in funding to run a National PTA Healthy Minds program, sponsored by the New York Life Foundation and The Allstate Foundation.

This competitive funding will support our PTA’s efforts to bring together students, families and OUR community to participate in educational activities that are engaging, inspiring and fun.

Over the coming months, we will share more information about plans for this program.

Our volunteers have been incredible this year. Thank you for your involvement in our Mills Park community. We have had such great turnout for Boosterthon, Movie Night, Walk-to-School, Campus Beautification and the Book Fair. And let's not forget about our awesome room parents! Now we are starting to plan future events and are reaching out to our MPE parents again. We need fresh ideas, new energy and any time you are willing to put in.

Our advocacy committee has some fresh ideas that need to be ironed out and put into action - these ideas revolve around SEL, a school-wide book swap and overcoming language barriers in our community. We are also bringing back Health & Wellness week to the school in January. Finally, although it doesn't take place until April, the planning for Spring Carnival will start soon. Take a look at our Google form and sign up: https://forms.gle/HWs9XfMHtAQriAZu8.

Thank you to our amazing MPE community!
