FALL FESTIVAL

Every fall, Millwood School hosts a day full of fun and activities which include bounce houses, face painting, and a hay ride around campus!

Grandparents' Day & Coffee

We welcome our grandparents on to our campus to share a variety of topics that have cultural and social impacts on our students. This is a time for families to get to know one another from all generations.

house GAMES

On the final day of school, Millwood's “Houses” compete in athletic feats to determine the victor and are recognized as champions at the start of the school year.

INTERNATIONAL WEEK

Several countries are studied and explored to improve students' cultural awareness, respect for different languages, traditions, and cultures. Parents, who are either native to these countries or have lived there for extended periods are invited to share their experiences with the students, and provide memorable lessons complete with authentic costumes, food, and artifacts.

MILLWOOD DAY

Our very own "Day of Giving and Belonging." For 24 hours we celebrate our students, teachers, alumni, families and friends. We ask the whole Millwood family to share their love for Millwood via social media posts and donations.
