Millwood School exists to provide the best possible education for its students. To do this, Millwood School enforces a very simple, but very profound, policy:
No one has the right to keep a teacher from teaching, or a student from learning. Anyone who chooses to do that will lose the privilege of being in class.
At Millwood School we do enforce this policy, and it creates the wonderful learning environment which all the students and teachers enjoy.
Millwood School follows a code for self-discipline, which is called the Millwood Big Ten. Students promise to follow the Big Ten by signing a copy of the document at the beginning of the school year. If a student strives to keep the promise, he/she will be successful at Millwood.
MILLWOOD SCHOOL’S BIG TEN - Code for Self-Discipline.
As a student at Millwood School, I will be a positive role model by:
- Striving for excellence in scholarship, leadership, and sportsmanship.
- Taking pride in my personal appearance.
- Striving for acceptable, healthful, and positive behaviors.
- Listening while others speak.
- Taking pride in Millwood School.
- Sharing.
- Doing my best to bring honor to Millwood School.
- Always showing respect for people and property.
- Being responsible.
- Using good manners, being kind, courteous and considerate of others.
The Big Ten is stated in positive terms because we believe that all students are capable of achieving self-discipline in these terms. The entire student body is given instruction about and fully understands all Millwood School policies. For more information on our Discipline Code, please refer to your
