Please join us for our
Middle School Information Nigh
on Thursday 10/1 from 6-7:30 pm
for Mills College Children's School & Aurora School
This year, Mills and Aurora are partnering together to put on our annual Middle School Information Night. Though this event benefits graduating 5th grade families, the admissions timeline seems to be getting earlier each year and this event has become essential to 4th grade families as they begin the process of thinking about life after MCCS. We also highly encourage 3rd grade families to attend, and anyone else who wants to learn more about middle schools.
Theresa Lozac'h of Beyond Quality Educational Consultants (www.theresalozach.com) will give a talk about how to
determine the right fit for your child, conduct a search and narrow down your choices. She will also include a segment about choosing schools for a child with learning differences, so even if you've come to this talk before, you may this new perspective to be helpful. Afterward there will be a Q&A.
Childcare/pizza will be provided in the SAC room so that parents can attend this event without their children.
Please sign up here by 9/30.
