This Week at McMillin – Nov. 29th-Dec. 3rd

Dear McMillin Families,

I hope this message finds you safe and well after our week away from campus.  Can you believe we only have three weeks until the end of Quarter Two?  Time is flying and I am so thankful for this wonderful community of students, families, and staff!  Let’s finish healthy and strong!  School resumes tomorrow, Monday, November 29th and it is a regular day for students.

COVID Reminders

Cold and flu season is upon us!  This is something we are used to, but COVID has made it a bit more complicated.  As we are coming off of a week apart, please keep your child home if your child is experiencing any symptoms or if someone in the household is awaiting test results.  Masking and hand-washing continue to be important.  Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community healthy.

Mrs. Orr

This Week at McMillin – November 15th-19th

Dear McMillin Families,

Federal Survey and Housing Questionnaire

The Federal Survey cards are a normal process we go through each year.  These yellow forms were sent home around 11/5/21.  If you haven’t already, please fill out this form and send it back to school with your child’s teacher.
The housing questionnaire that came home this week is a new form that was just required of us as a school.  The purpose is to make sure our students have housing and to identify those who might not – helping with additional support if necessary.  Thank you for your help in getting both forms completed by 11/19.

COVID Reminders

Just a reminder that if there is someone COVID positive in the home, please be sure to keep your student out of school and contact us as soon as possible.  As we head into cold and flu season, we realize that these symptoms are similar to COVID-19.  If your child has any symptoms, they will need to provide a negative PCR to return to campus.  Thank you for your understanding.

No School – November 22-26

Just a reminder that there will be no school from Monday, November 22nd through Friday, November 26th.
