Welcome Back Mountain Lion Families,

I hope you all had a restful and fun summer. The Mills PTA is so excited to welcome back our returning students and families and give a warm hello to all our new families. This is a wonderful community, and we're thrilled you're part of it!

The PTA has been busy planning a great year filled with fun events and opportunities to support our community. But we can't do it without you! Joining the PTA is a great way to meet other parents, get involved in the school, and make a real difference. Whether you have a lot of time or no time at all, we have a place for you.

I can't wait to see all the amazing things we'll accomplish together this year. Let's make it the best one yet for our Mountain Lion community!

Sincerely,

Laura Kappel

Leadership opportunities in the Mills PTA

We have a few vacancies on the Mills PTA Executive board: Vice President of Fundraising and the following committee chair positions: Programs, Art in Education and Ways and Means. If you are interested in serving on our board this year or have any questions, please email Laura Kappel at president.millspta@gmail.com.

Feed the Faculty!

The first week of school is always a mix of excitement—and exhaustion! Our incredible teachers put in long hours welcoming students, organizing classrooms, and laying the foundation for a great year ahead.

We're inviting families to sign up to provide a meal or gift card for a teacher/staff member during the first week of school.

You’re welcome to sign up for one or multiple staff members!

Important: Please plan to drop off the food or gift card at Mills in the front office on the date indicated, and be sure to clearly label it with the staff member’s name.

Questions or want to get more involved? Contact Laura at staffapp.millspta@gmail.com.
