Miller Elementary offers many opportunities for students to be involved in many special activities throughout the school year.
After School Program
The After School Program is an opportunity for 2nd-5th grade students to get a little extra help with school work. This year we are focusing on math. Students will work every Thursday after school for approximately 1 hour. A teacher will work with a small group either in the computer lab, use manipulatives in a lesson, or reteach a concept with which students struggle.
The After School Program starts on November 1st. We will meet on Thursdays from 3:10-4:15. Parents who are picking up students should meet at the front entrance at 4:15 pm. The only time we will not meet is if there is no school on that day.
Buddy Classes
An intermediate grade class (3rd, 4th, 5th) and a primary grade (Kindergarten, 1st, 2nd) have students "buddy" up for the school year to do "Buddy" projects related to curriculum.
Lunch with the Principal
Each month Mrs. Ellsworth invites students who have a birthday that month to eat lunch with her in her office.
M.E.S.A.
(Miller Elementary Student Association)
The goal of MESA is to provide leadership development that emphasizes school unity, making good choices and taking action on kids' ideas. Our primary focus is to promote a school with a respectful atmosphere that prepares students for becoming leaders.
Miller Elementary School enhances the quality of education by involving students in activities and programs outside the classroom that build citizenship and encourage self-esteem. Students in grades 2-5 are eligible to represent their class.
MESA members are required to:
Attend weekly meetings during their lunch-recess time.
Talk to classmates about activities and ideas that they’re interested in.
Work together to plan and participate in special activities throughout the year such as:
Red Ribbon Week, Spirit Week and others.
Possibly assist with activities outside of the school day (such as Mardi Gras).
If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Quartemont or Mrs. Dowson, MESA Advisors at 374-7026
Miller Mail
This is our very own Inner-school mail system. 3rd-5th graders are official postal workers (collectors, facers/cancellers, sorters and delivers) Students from every grade send letters to friends and family at Miller each week.
P.R.I.M.E.
Personal Reading is Mighty Exciting! Miller Elementary's wonderful P.T.O. provides books for every student and teachers provide an activity that encourages reading. Thank you P.T.O.!!
Safety Patrol
The fifth grade students on Safety Patrol are doing a great job. They have been trying different posts throughout the school.
Connor and Darby have been selected as captains for 1st semester. The Safety Patrol members have been doing a great job modeling respect and responsibility. Keep up the good work!
