As we embark on another exciting school year, I am enthusiastic and optimistic for the opportunities ahead. Our district is committed to providing a world class education for every student, and this year, we are proud to share some significant updates that will strengthen our community, support our mission, and our continuous focus on answering the question, “What’s Best for Every Student?’ in our daily work.

As partners in your children’s education, it is important to us that you have information about our schools and district readily available to you. In addition to our district and school websites, we offer the following ways to stay informed and engaged:

ParentSquare will continue to be our primary tool for communicating with you for school and district information. ParentSquare provides a simple and safe way for everyone to connect. You’ll be able to receive all school and classroom communication, view the school and district calendar, sign up to volunteer or participate in activities and communicate directly with your teachers and school principal. Additionally, ParentSquare gives parents/guardians the ability to contact other families in their classroom to build community. 

Newsletters will be sent by your school site Principal, via ParentSquare, every Friday, which will include a "Superintendent's Update", as well as your school news and updates.

Board Meetings are typically held once per month and can be attended in person or through Zoom. The Board meeting schedule, agendas and minutes can be found here. After each meeting we publish our "News, Notes, and Votes" report, and the video recording of the proceedings.

School staff emails and telephone contact information is available at each school’s website.

The active involvement of parents is a hallmark of what makes Mill Valley schools outstanding. We welcome parent participation in multiple venues. Together, we make our schools great!

Parent Partner Organizations: The following organizations are instrumental to the success of our schools, contributing significantly to the excellent educational opportunities available to Mill Valley children:

Volunteering: In addition to volunteering with our parent organization partners and traditional ways of volunteering in your child’s classroom, each site relies upon the involvement of parents for daily yard and meal supervision, helping to monitor students during morning school drop off and afternoon pick up, and myriad other ways. For more information about volunteering, please visit our website here or speak to your site Principal.

Safe Routes to School: With ongoing traffic congestion in Mill Valley, we are asking families to please consider walking or cycling to school when possible. Information about pedestrian and bicycle routes to each of our campuses is available at SR2S website here.
