Hello Millikan Family and Friends,

I wanted to write a quick e-mail to welcome you back to the 2005/06 school year. This is a special year for all of us since it is our 50^th Anniversary. Our theme for the year is “Go For The Gold.”

Millikan co-principal, Karen Brinkman, has accepted a new position in the District. During the September 6^th School Board meeting, Don Keller, was appointed to act as the new co-principal of Millikan High School. Mr. Keller’s past assignment was principal of Stanford Middle School. He will transition into his new position over the next two weeks. Welcome to Mr. Keller, you’re going to enjoy RAMHI.

On our first day of school this year we tried something new. We had an all school pep-rally in the football stadium. It was our attempt to set the tone for our 50^th Anniversary. The band played, the cheerleaders cheered, the football team captains spoke and the students enjoyed the rally.

This promises to be a great year and we are excited to get started. Best wishes for the school year and welcome back. Remember that we need your support so please join the PTSA. A team approach between the home and the school is the most effective way to serve our students.

Best wishes,

Jeff
