Millet students enjoyed traveling to Midland Center for the Performing Arts to see the musical, “Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus,” which is based on the book by Mo Willems. Our students enjoyed interacting with the actors by clapping and singing. They had excellent seats up close to the stage too. Everyone had fun enjoying the musical and represented Millet in a positive way by their good behavior!
Registration for SISD Applicant Bootcamp is open!
Midland Center for the Performing Arts, along with a very generous benefactor, made it possible for Millet’s students to attend the musical, “Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus.” We all had excellent seats right up front of the stage and thoroughly enjoyed the musical. All of the students were very well behaved and represented Millet in a very positive way!

March 20th is the first day of Spring, but is also World Frog Day...a day to bring awareness to and celebrate these water-loving creatures. There are over 6,000 species of frogs throughout the world, but here at Hartley we have seen/heard 6 different species. We just found our first one yesterday (Wood Frog) and will soon begin hearing the mating calls coming from the ponds, ditches and marsh. FYI Abraham Lincoln nicknamed his youngest son "Tad" because when he was born his head was so big it reminded him of the big head/body of a tadpole (baby frog).
