Todays teacher spotlight goes out to Mr. Ezell. Mr. Ezell is our permanent guest teacher and has been serving in a first grade classroom since September. Not only does he love the kids and shows it with his actions on a daily basis, but the kids love him back. Old Mill is so lucky to have him!


It was so good to have students back at school today! We started our day off strong with reviewing our CREATE expectations, practicing mindfulness and Mrs. Watson's class started a humility project! #koalascreate

In Mrs. Gentry's class students were challenged to be engineers and design a container that would keep ice from melting outside on a hot day. The designs were tested and then we discussed why some containers worked better than others. #koalascreate









Happy Thanksgiving, Old Mill families! We hope everyone has a wonderful break!
