Teacher Appreciation Week is this week! Thank a teacher for all that they do!

We’re excited to share that Milton Elementary School has been selected by @cliforg as a 2026–2027 Year of the Book Grant recipient! This program brings up to $25,000 in new books, author and illustrator visits, engaging literacy programming, and special events to our school community. It’s going to be an amazing year of reading, creativity and connection, and we can’t wait to get started!

We gathered today to recognize our amazing April Students of the Month!
These students were picked for consistently demonstrating:
❤️ Kindness: Lifting others up every single day.
🌱 Growth Mindset: Embracing challenges and learning from mistakes.
💪 Perseverance: Pushing through even when things get tough.
🛡️ Safety: Looking out for themselves and their peers.
A huge shoutout to the riders and driver of Bus 9! Thank you for showing us what a safe and respectful commute looks like. Keep up that great teamwork!
We took a moment to celebrate our incredible nurse, Olivia Porter! Thank you, Nurse Olivia, for your endless care, patience, and for keeping our community healthy and happy.
We also said goodbye to our wonderful UVM Student Teachers. Congratulations to all of you!




Our Afternoon Preschoolers took a dive into the world of sustainability with a visit from the Casella Resource Rover! As part of our unit on Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling, our preschool students got an up-close look at how we can keep our planet green. 🌎♻️🌎




As part of National Poetry Month, our 2nd grade students got a special visit from the one and only Ted Scheu (rhymes with “shy”)—the Poetry Guy! Ted helped our young writers find their voices, teaching them that poetry is all about laughing, observing the world, and "juggling" words to share big truths.
We are so grateful to the PTA for their continued support in bringing these enriching experiences to our classrooms! 🏫





For May, we’re celebrating the incredible educators who make an impact beyond the classroom - reading specialists, MLL coordinators, teacher coaches, math interventionists, SLPs, Work-Based learning, and Library Media Specialists.
Do you know someone who goes above and beyond every day to support students and learning? Take a moment to nominate them!

A huge thank you to the Milton High School Interact Club and the Milton/Colchester Rotary for visiting our 1st and 2nd-grade classrooms today. Our students loved hearing new stories and seeing that reading is a lifelong adventure.
It was a wonderful morning of mentorship, community, and, of course, great books!
