We have had another outstanding year at Millwood School. We have continued to build on our tradition of excellence through the collective hard work of our parents, teachers, and students. Our 2003 - 2004 school year held many successes and we are proud of the numerous accomplishments of our students.

Our PTA had another wonderful year with numerous activities and programs for our students and teachers. We appreciate the support our PTA gives us, both through its volunteers and financial assistance which work together to help us enjoy so many successful programs for our students and teachers here at Millwood. Our PTA sponsored its second annual Reading Rodeo fundraiser in which 348 students read over 200,000 pages and raised $6100.00. These funds were combined with money from our fall fundraiser and used to buy supplemental reading materials for teachers to use in their classrooms.

Our School Improvement Council met each month this year providing input on several issues including our Title One Federal Programs and our School Improvement Plan.

Our faculty and staff continue to provide excellent instruction and learning opportunities each day in the classroom. In order to improve instruction we assessed students using the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) test. An analysis of these tests allowed us to cluster students based on achievement for small group instruction.

As in previous years, our character education activities included a character development "word of the week" which was discussed on the morning TV show each day with the student body and emphasized by teachers in classroom activities.

Positive reinforcement for good choices and respectful behavior was provided to students through our "Terrific Kids," "Magnificent Mustangs," and "Citizens of the Month" programs that rewarded students for appropriate interaction with their teachers and classmates.

We are always glad to have visitors and volunteers at Millwood School. We need the involvement of parents and community members. The education of children is always best achieved through teamwork. We need you on our team. Perhaps you might consider serving as a volunteer or one of our Millwood Mentors and tutor some of our students. We hope to see you soon helping us at Millwood School.
