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!

Students can participate from 10th-12th grade in bi-monthly workshops, Delta College tours and career readiness activities. This will be the 16th cohort of students that will participate in the program.
In recognition of World Water Day, Millet students delivered water to each classroom. World Water Day is observed on March 22 every year to educate about the importance of water to the whole world and to raise awareness about the importance of clean drinking water.
