Mills University Studies High School is PROUD to present our first two teachers of the month for the 2024-25 school year. For September, our teacher is Ms. Prewett. Her nominating colleague said, "Mrs. Prewett has worked diligently to orchestrate clubs here at Mills. She consistently communicates expectations with staff, creates sign-up forms for students, and spends hours sorting through the data to ensure all students have a place to go (whether it is study hall or an actual club) on club days. This is a large feat for one person and over 500 students. However, Mrs. Prewett does it to ensure a smooth system is in place and to avoid or minimize chaos in our operation on club days. Furthermore, as things change, Mrs. Prewett has to use her planning time to ensure that needs are met and students are placed appropriately for clubs." For October, our teacher is Mr. Thompson. One of his colleagues stated that, "Mr. Thompson works hard to help all students learn and grow. He teaches in a way that connects to real-life problems, like saving the environment. This helps us become smart and caring people in the world." We are so thankful for these teachers making the impact that they do! Congratulations to the first two recipients of this award this year! #ElevatingExcellence #MillsUniversityStudiesHighSchool #TeacherOfTheMonth
