ONE IN A MILLION Each Millwood person is unique . . . special. . . “one in a million.” These 640 special people attend a small independent school with .30 teachers and -3d classrooms. And even though the Average Daily Attendance has decreased the last few years, we have been expanding. No bond issue has ever been denied and new constructions have included a band building, junior high complex and football stadium. MI IS may seem like a small school, but d operates on a budget of over $1,000,(XM). Yet within this million-dollar enterprise, each and every student receives individual attention . . . each and every student is “one in a million.” Table of Contents Opening....................................

One in a Million A class with only four other students? Office suspension? Tutoring program? Eighth grade proficiency test? MHS is “one in a million” in several ways. Could you imagine vourself in a class with only four other stu- dents? Or two others? Yet small classes, seldom exceed- ing 25, are common at our school. We were the first in the state to adopt minimal com- petency standards as a requirement. We also have a ‘ killer” proficiency test in English that all eighth grad- ers take. All these tests must lx? doing some good because one of us scored in the top 10% of all black students taking the PSAT test. We also like to keep our students in school. When a disciplinary problem arises, instead of being sent home, they lock you up in a room with a bunch of other “bad” kids and make you do school work all day. Also we have the new Tutoring Program which uses members of the National Honor Society. These students spare an hour out of their busy schedules to help others. Because of the high aca- demic standards, more than 80% of each graduating class go to college and one third receive some scholarship assistance. Gazing into the library display case is Marc Patmon. 2
