It's that time, families! Time to hear from Jostens and order caps and gowns and other items for graduation! The seniors will meet on October 5th to hear from the Jostens representative and learn about all the things they can order for May. Then on October 9th they can place orders. If you have any questions, you can call the school and ask for the counseling center.

Baseball players and fans, please note the important upcoming dates that Coach Flowers has put out. We are looking forward to a successful year!

Students in Mr. Lewis's anatomy and physiology classes this week have been learning about the anatomical planes that are imaginary flat lines used to show the locations of body parts. Examples include transverse, sagittal, and distal planes. The gummy bears were a great way to demonstrate their knowledge of these planes!

These ladies are all long-time Mills University Studies High School staff, but they keep it fresh and relevant every day! From school counselor to test coordinator to classroom teachers - they all bring our school to the next level!

This week the seniors - class of 2027! - had their portraits made. Believe it or not, they've made it to their last year of high school! We can't wait to see how these photos turned out. If you have any questions about senior photos or other events, please call the school and ask for Ms. Hampton, the senior class sponsor.

Two of these teachers are brand new at Mills University Studies High School, and two of them have been here a while. Either way, we are so happy they are on our staff!

This week was a great first week at Mills University Studies High School! We held grade-level assemblies to discuss what students have been doing well and what the expectations are for this school year. Students got to learn about topics from cell phones to graduation requirements, and they had time for Q and A. We are so proud of the students and how they behaved this week and came to school ready to learn!

In Ms. Galloway's classes this week, her students go to know each other with a bingo game. Students had fun trying to find a classmate who had been to another country, who exercised at least three times a week, and who had two or more siblings.

Students in Coach Flowers' civics class spent this week discussing the importance and need for governments. Students got up and moving to chart their reasoning, and then they got to discuss what they had written.
