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.
