While students are off for Election Day, our teachers dig deep into collaboration and professional learning. This team of science educators met at Jonathan Law this morning for their work session. @MilfordSuper
We are pleased to present the November 2021 installment of the MILFORD SUPER NEWS! This month we are featuring INTENTIONAL PLAY -- aka 'Purposeful Play.' Wait 'til you see the magnificent work that is going on with our youngest of learners!

Last night's event was so good -- we feel the need to share a few more pics. They were rock stars! Enjoy.
Students at JFK performed in front of an audience for the very first time last night at their 'Music Night' - one of many being held across the district at each of our schools. As you can see, it was wonderful to celebrate our kids - and enjoy the stylings of Hot Cross Buns!
The Milford Foodservice team has just issued the following letter about food supply shortages and what that might mean for our school cafeterias. Please take a moment to read it. Thank you!

A huge THANK YOU goes to the Parsons Perks team for their beautiful donation of $1,000 to the United Way of Milford during our pledge campaign. Their gift is made from the profits generated from their coffee & snacks stand at Parsons. Incredible - and thank you! @MilfordSuper
Wow! Take a look at the colleges, universities and programs our Class of 2021 grads are attending this fall. Truly outstanding!

To the innocent observer, you might see kids playing with blocks. Actually, these CPM students are engaged in Purposeful Play. The assignment? "What do you need to build a strong structure?" The words 'foundation' and 'sturdy' came into play. Amazing. @MilfordSuper @MrsWhitCPM
Congratulations to Dena Kelly who has been named the new asst. principal at Foran High School. Ms. Kelly comes to us from Bunnell High School where she taught English/Journalism and was very active in all school/student activities. Welcome to Foran! @MilfordSuper @MrBLionPride
Guess what? The Milford Super News video series is back -- and to kick things off, we're going to take a look at the world of SCIENCE in our schools. Click on the link to watch! @MilfordSuper

HQI – High Quality Instruction -- LIVE @ East Shore today. Student A describes a shape to Student B, who draws the shape on graph paper. Communication is key here, driving home the concept of precise language, for students AND teachers. @MilfordSuper @MrsCEastShore
What would your 'Dream School' look like? What would it include? Students at East Shore Middle School were tasked to come up with the perfect design. This one includes a food court and stores, as well as classroom areas and more. Very cool! @MilfordSuper @MrsCEastShore
East Shore students become 'detectives' as they learn how to find clues in book jackets to determine the genre of the work: mystery, science fiction, fantasy, realistic fiction -- or something else. Great work, ESMS!
@MilfordSuper @MrsCEastShore
Stoichiometry? These students at Jonathan Law know all about it! [Btw - it means the relationship between relative quantities of substances taking part in a reaction or forming a compound]. Thanks Rm. 212! @MilfordSuper @MarkoJLHS @hoggs2255 @jlawadvocate
What's your hypothesis? How would you go about proving it? These young scientists at Meadowside took a moment out of their lab session to have some fun with Dr. Cutaia today. Want to hear more about science in MPS? Stay tuned ... @MilfordSuper @MeadowsideMPS
Orchard Hills Elementary got a visit from 'Flappy' today to celebrate School Spirit Friday! Even though it was pouring rain - the smiles on our students and families were brighter than sunshine! Happy Friday everyone!
These budding scientists at Meadowside learned how to classify 'matter' and then record their findings in their Science notebooks. [And, discovered there were many ways to classify groups of pasta: shape, color, and type, among others!]. Great job! @MilfordSuper @MeadowsideMPS
Mr. Kalafus enthusiastically gives a lesson on how to play the ukelele.
Great work going on here at West Shore Middle School. Thanks for the visit!
