President's Message

Mills High School PTO - Communicate, Connect, Collect, Celebrate

Dear Viking Families,

Welcome (or welcome back) to the Mills Family! I am honored to serve as your 2022-2023 Mills Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) President alongside an amazing PTO Board of dedicated parents/guardians and educators. Our plan is to continue working together to ensure that learning and connection take place safely and successfully again this year. Our mission is to communicate and keep our Mills Community informed, connect parents/guardians with other parents/guardians, teachers, and administration, collect funds to support the Mills Annual Fund and PTO programs, and celebrate our students, teachers, staff, and administrators.

Who We Are

We are a dedicated group of parent/guardian volunteers, teachers, and staff who work directly with Principal Duszynski, the school administration, and other family organizations to support the needs of our school.

What We Do

Your $50 membership and generous donation of time allow our PTO to:

• Provide volunteers & services to teachers, staff and students of Mills High School.

• Curate & send family e-news coverage of important dates, events, activities, and relevant news to Mills.

• Educate & inform parents/guardians and the community on discussion topics, i.e. colleges and mental health.

• Spearhead the Annual Fund campaign to provide much needed supplemental funding, which elevates and enriches the exceptional educational experience for which Mills is known. More information will be coming your way in September regarding our campaign dates and Mills Mania event!

Our Partners

In addition to working with the School Administration, we work closely with ALL family organizations at Mills in order to best serve our community. All our organizations support one another and are reliant on membership fees or donations in order to fund events, equipments, materials, etc.
