Happy Holidays Millennium Parents!
'Tis the season to spread holiday cheer and we're hoping you can help us celebrate our teachers and staff who work hard year round to encourage and educate your children.
We have close to 200 staff members and would love to recognize them all with a choice of gift cards to a local store or restaurant. We would appreciate cards in $10 to $25 denominations so we can celebrate everyone equally.
If your family can donate, please sign up below for the store or restaurant you will get the gift card from. Please drop all gift cards off to the front office (attention: Karla Lopez) by Friday, December 13th at the end of the school day.
