Dear Millbridge Families,

Things are going absolutely wonderful at Millbridge Elementary School and we cannot thank you enough for your patience and support in the beginning of the school year. We would be remiss if we did not give a shout out to the real superstars, our students, who have done an INCREDIBLE job coming into school. Our back to school night was a huge success and we received positive feedback about condensing into one night. Our back to school pep rally was tons of fun talking about school rules and our four bear paws. We can't wait to celebrate our cubs.

If you have not yet filled out the questions and forms on parent portal, please do so. If you need any help, please contact the main office.

Thank you for your continued support and teamwork for the success of your child.

Best,

Stacy Murphy

Principal

In order to obtain a fast pass, you must be listed in Realtime as your child’s contact. Older siblings picking up must be in at least 6th grade to obtain a fast pass. Government ID/Student ID (for the siblings that are not 18 yet) must be provided when signing up. Fast Pass sign-up will take place in the cafeteria during parent pick-up times. To sign up for a fast pass, please see Ms. Williams at the back table in the cafeteria at the appropriate grade specified time. There will be a form that needs to be signed to register for a pass. Passes will take at least 1 week to process and will be given out at parent pickup when they are ready.

Registration is now open for our elementary Robotics programs at Millbridge. As in previous years, if more students register than spaces available, we will use a lottery system to assign students to Robotics teams. The registration forms will be open until September 24. Parents will receive email notification of their child's status by September 30.

If you are dropping your child off, please enter the parking lot closest to the cafeteria. This is the carpool line. Staff will direct you around and assist your child out of the car. It is extremely helpful to have your child in the back on the passenger side for exit. A staff member will open the car door when it is safe for exit. There will be staff members to assist in crossing and navigating the hallways to help find classrooms.

HERE is an important link from our counselors regarding some tips about promoting kindness.
