On Friday, November 7th MMS held its first Student P.E.A.C.E Award Recognition breakfast. Six middle school students were nominated by their grade level teachers for showing their commitment to the principals of P.E.A.C.E. (Purpose, Ethics, Acceptance, Community & Evolution) Congratulations to Emma Bunga, Kiera Dennis, Eloise Irwin, Axel Asplund, Wyatt Gosselin and Alison Perez-Gomez. These students are excellent representatives of Millbrook Middle School who will continue to spread positivity and P.E.A.C.E. throughout our educational community; Go Blazers! Thank you to the Millbrook PTO for sponsoring this event!
National Junior Honor Society
It is NEVER too soon to start thinking about the National Junior Honor Society! Every year MMS inducts 8th graders who are on the path of academic excellence and also demonstrate the other four pillars of the NJHS: Leadership, Service, Character, and Citizenship. The journey to be part of NJHS starts well before students get to 8th grade. If you are a student looking for a service opportunity, Millbrook Listens is looking for volunteers for upcoming events. Please email christopher.wilson114@gmail.com if you are interested.
Millbrook Giving Tree Dropoff
Reminder: All gifts are to be dropped off to District Office @ MMS, wrapped with the hand included by Thursday, December 11, 2025
The Millbrook Giving Tree is a meaningful tradition that our district takes part in each holiday season. This initiative brings our school community together to support local families in need by providing gifts that help make the holidays a little brighter. Each year, families and staff have the opportunity to select an item from the Giving Tree and lend a helping hand to others in our community.
6th Grade Hits the Streets of Millbrook
The sixth grade team took their annual walking field trip to the village of Millbrook. During this trip, students have the opportunity to interact with the community and see the many historical sites of our community. The Millbrook Historical Society awaited our students at the many placards that tell the history of Millbrook. An incredible time was had by all as our young historians interacted first hand with our past, our present and started to think about the future of our community.

Health Tip of the Month
What a Veteran's Day @ MMS
Annual Veterans Day Breakfast Assembly
Millbrook Middle School
One of the finest traditions we have at Millbrook Middle School is honoring our Veterans! Our local Veterans sat down with our 8th grade students and spoke about their experiences serving our country. After speaking in small groups and enjoying breakfast, our Veterans were welcomed into a jam packed auditorium of cheering middle schoolers. Mr. Carbone led the festivities by reminding students of the many freedoms that they enjoy daily, thanks to the service of our troops on stage and abroad. Students from all grades then took turns coming up to the microphone and asking questions of our panel of Veterans. As always, we thank them for their service and for taking the time out to continue to educate our students on the value of service locally and globally.
