On May 23rd, the Mills Middle School teachers, staff and administration held a promotion ceremony at Mills University Studies High School for our 8th Grade Comets, -and what a send off!

We are so proud of these blazing comets who are destined to do great things knowing that they can and will do whatever they put their minds to! The best is yet to come!
