Today, we celebrated one of the largest fifth-grade class in Mills River history! 🦅✨

When we look at this group of students, "resilient" doesn't even begin to cover it. In their six years at they:
- persevered through kindergarten during a global pandemic 💻
- learned to read and make friends behind masks 😷
- navigated the disruptions of a historic hurricane, unexpected ice storms, and so much more.

They proved that when the world gets unpredictable, character and relationships are what truly matter.

Next stop: Middle School! As they officially transition from Falcons to Raiders ⚔️, we know they are ready for whatever comes next.

Never forget where you started, and never forget the family you made here. We love you, Class of 2026! 💙❤

Our library has 175 books overdue — and they want to come home to MRS by Friday the 15th!

If you have a book under your bed, in your backpack, or hiding behind/under furniture, please bring it back so the books can have a party on the shelf. 🎉

Teachers will be sending home notices with students that have missing books. Please email Mrs. McVey at [email protected] if the book is permanently hiding and you need to know the replacement cost.
