2 K and Counting

I can't believe that we've had over 2000 people view the blog.  Some people have even viewed it from India and Trinidad and Tobago.  I will do my best to keep updating with the great things happening at our school and even a couple posts on what the Ellis family is up to.  Thanks for viewing.

Orange and Black Forever

Check out the seventh grade winners from today's Orange and Black day.  What a great way to show support for Red Ribbon Week and our school.  Mr. Turbitt has gone above and beyond this year and has come up with some great ideas.  I know he really appreciates have Mrs. Specht here to help him.  If you come to MMS tomorrow don't be surprised if you can't see anyone...it's camouflage day.

Blackout Day...How Can Your Read the Post???

Today is Blackout to Drugs Day at Milton.  We had a ton of students dress in black to show their support.  Great job everyone.  Can you actually believe that Mrs. Doebler tried to tell me that Johnny Cash sang the song "Folsom Prism Blues."  C'mon Mrs. Doebler...it's "Folsom Prison Blues."  Can't wait to play my favorite Corey Hart song for tomorrow's theme!!!
Johnny Cash was the Man in Black
