Mrs. Reese My favorite things from this year at school were using our new curriculum in Math 8, creating our new yearbook (I can’t wait for you all to see it), seeing all of the wonderful art pieces that my Clay Club artists designed.

Personally, all of the holidays with my husband and sons was awesome. I especially loved going to Utah during spring break and driving my Polaris RZR.

Lianna My favorite thing this year was definitely being in yearbook. I made a few friends and I got to learn about what actually went into a yearbook.

Emily D. My favorite thing this year is being in yearbook and being in clay club. The people here are so amazing and the teachers make school fun especially Mrs. Michalak! I have builded so many relationships with new people and people who I thought that I would never talk to.

Jaxsen My favorite thing about this year was all the new music. So far my favorite song is Maze by Juice Wrld.

Camden My favorite thing that happened this year at Miller was the chance to meet all my current friends. It was such a great past 2 years here at Miller and I’m so glad I came here. Everyone here has been so kind to me and I’ve had so many experiences that I never thought I’d

have. I’m gonna miss all my 7th grade friends and seeing them go on the last day is really gonna hurt me and them but I know they’re gonna replace me and have the same experiences I’ve had.

Marshall The carnival was fun. Some friends let me shoot poop off of water bottles for free. I raced a friend with balloons and we tied. I went outside to buy some Kona Ice. Then I had fun watching people suffer to the horrible taste of the bean boozled jelly beans. As evil as I am, it’s nice to see people smile. Especially people I care about. Hopefully the dance will be funner! 0_0
