Thank you to all of our students and staff for helping grow our Poppy Field for Memorial Day weekend!
Increase in students on social media: There has been an increase of students interacting through iCloud and facetime as well as google meet and google chat with people from other Milford schools or in some cases communicating with people not associated with Milford Public Schools. This is a reminder that a school issued device should only be used for school related things. If your child is communicating on other devices please check the device’s safety setting, supervise their interactions, and remind students to not send personal information through chats/texts.
