The purpose of the Jefferson and Walentas scholarships is to build leaders, scholars, and citizens for the benefit of the university and the world. Nominees already embody these three characteristics. The mission of the Jefferson Scholars Foundation is to benefit the University of Virginia by identifying, attracting, and nurturing individuals of extraordinary intellectual range and depth who possess the highest concomitant qualities of leadership, scholarship, and citizenship.

Millwood's Nominees for the Jefferson Scholars are Ellis Aktalay and Luc Ryan.
Millwood's Nominee for the Walentas Scholar is Romy Brake.

Since our founding in 1989, we have been successful in fulfilling the mission of Millwood School through dedication and hard work. From three trailers at Sunday Park to the current 79-acre campus, we have come a long way. People have believed in our mission and what we are trying to achieve, and we are blessed with the continued support of a large circle of family and friends. We do not have small goals. We have remained focused on the big picture of creating a school program and campus that fosters an extraordinary education. We are very proud of our graduates; the scholars, leaders, and athletes who have gone on to college with their Millwood lessons serving them extremely well. We are positioned to take the next step in achieving our five-year strategic plan!

This step is to:
- Construct a new Middle and Upper School academic building
- Further develop the site
- Create an additional athletic field

Students and staff from Millwood School joined Keep Chesterfield Beautiful (KCB) Adopt-A-Spot program in February 2024. Since joining the program, volunteers have picked up 34 bags of litter along Village Square Parkway. Thanks to the Millwood School community for making a difference in their neighborhood and being environmental stewards of Chesterfield County!
