Mill Valley Weekly

Hello Mill Valley Families,

It's hard to believe the summer is winding down. I hope that you have had some time to create family memories. One of the things I did this summer was to get Carter's senior pictures taken. The photographer we chose took us to the Old Muskego Settlement Center where we had an opportunity to take a picture together next to the original Mill Valley one room school house. I was so excited to get to do this, however, Carter did not share my same enthusiasm.

I am excited for our doors to be open this fall. We have been working hard to put many safety plans into place.

Sincerely,

Robin Schrot, Principal
