Tomorrow , Tuesday, April 15th, begins four days of ATLAS state testing at Mills University Studies High School. It is imperative that students be at school and on time!
Testing will begin each day at 8:30. Tuesday and Wednesday will be testing for all 9th and 10th graders for reading and writing. On Thursday, all students in geometry and Algebra I will test. Friday will be the biology test for students in that course.
Please help us ensure students are at school, on time, well-rested, and ready to go. We offer breakfast daily and hope students will take advantage of that option. Chromebooks need to be charged and brains need to be ready!
We can do this! Let's show up and show out!!!
The end of the school year is approaching, and all the special events are beginning to happen! Today, the seniors walked their elementary schools and were celebrated for reaching this milestone. Just look at these big smiles!

The MILLS UNIVERSITY STUDIES HIGH basketball team is making the rounds this week for some well-deserved recognition! On Tuesday, the boys' team and coaches were recognized at the PCSSD Board of Education meeting. Then, on Wednesday, the boys' and girls' teams visited the Arkansas Capitol. Senator Jamie Scott recognized the teams on the Senate floor for their hard work and accomplishments this season. Let's go, Comets!!
Ms. Foote's 10th grade English classes have been demonstrating what they know about point of view this week using their white board paddles. After reading a sample text, the students had to determine if it was first or third person point of view and whether it was limited or omniscient. Yes, this is part of prepping for ATLAS testing, but it is also just great instruction! #ElevatingExcellence
