January 8 - 12, 2018

Bears,

The weather outside was frightful!  A nor'easter brought us snow, ice, and a few late Christmas presents - two snow days and a four-day weekend.  Sorry, no refunds or returns on these gifts; they are ours for the keeping.  I hope everyone took advantage of the extra time off as warmly and safely as possible.

I'd like to take and moment and thank Millville Public School's custodial crews for getting the sidewalks, parking lots, and buildings ready for school after the storm.  While the students and most of the staff members were avoiding the mess, our custodians were going into it.  In particular, I'd like to thank Frank Lowers, Glenn Hunter, and Ben Pierce for their hard work in getting Bacon back into school shape.  Not only from the storm, but also from a situation that occurred last weekend just prior to our return from the holiday break.  Gentlemen, thank you for your dedication to our school and students!

We were only back in school for two days, but it was a good two days.  On Tuesday, we welcomed back our music teacher, Mrs. Rohaly.  She, her husband, and her baby are doing fine, and it's great to have her back.

That's it for this week - short week, short update.  Be sure to check the upcoming dates.  All are invited to Millville Public School's 2nd strategic planning meeting on Jan 16th.  See below for more info, and we hope to see you there.  You can sign up by clicking here.  You do not, however, need to sign up to attend.
