Miller Families,
We are moving right along through the second half of the school year! Middle of Year (MOY) data is now available, and we encourage you to ask your child about their progress and goals. This month is packed with important milestones, including National School Counselor Week and Spring Picture Day. We are also officially beginning transition meetings, which include visiting our local elementary schools, and our 8th graders are looking forward to their visit to DHS!
We invite you to join us for a special presentation on how our schools address bullying to ensure a safe and supportive environment for everyone. Additionally, please remember to complete the annual Family-School Relationship Survey. This survey measures your perceptions of school climate, safety, and sense of belonging. We use your feedback to improve our school environment continually. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns, and...
Thank you for your continued partnership in making Miller a wonderful place to learn and grow!
Go Angels!
Vernadette Norman
Proud Principal, Miller Middle School
