Pura Vida! 🇨🇷✨ Our 8th graders are wrapping up their Intersession adventure!
From hands-on community service and chocolate making in Mastatal 🍫, to in-water sea turtle monitoring and planting mangroves on the Osa Peninsula 🐢🌊, and discovering the mysterious stone spheres in the Central Valley 🪨—this trip has been a wonderful blend of conservation, culture, and connection to Costa Rica!
A huge thank you to all the EcoTeach Guides that were with us every step of the way! 🌿

During Real World Wednesday, Millennium students went to visit Baton! Baton is an innovative digital platform that leverages AI to eliminate waste in trucking, optimize freight networks, and lower carbon emissions. 🌍 Students had a great time getting hands-on experience with coding and learning how to use tech for a goal to better our world. Thank you so much to Baton for hosting us! 🚚💻

“History is knowledge, and knowledge is power.” 💡📖 We were honored to have Michelle Henry-Ellis speak with our Millennium students about the importance of knowing our history, understanding the Rule of Law, and the origins of Black History Month! A huge thank you for such an inspiring and empowering presentation. 📚

🛡️ Our Website is Safe! 🛡️
This week, 7th and 8th graders saved the day! Earlier this week, Millennium School faced a (simulated) network attack, and our STEM Quest teams stepped up to defend us. 💻
For their Quest culmination, led by Abigail, students put their skills to the test in a live simulation. From deciphering hidden messages in images (steganography) to reverse engineering and digital forensics, they used tech for good to fend off a virtual threat.
The event even featured a live news broadcast as the drama unfolded! 🎥🎙️ We are so impressed by the composure, collaboration, and coding skills our students displayed under pressure.
Great work, ethical hackers! 🙌🚀

Basketball season is officially in FULL SWING here at Millennium! 🏀 The gym was absolutely electric last night with both our JV and Varsity teams showing out. Huge props Millennium student-athletes for the hustle and the sportsmanship! Let’s keep this energy going for the season, Falcons! 🦅⚡️👏

📸✨ Student-Led Learning in Action!
Last week, Millennium students took the lead by planning Advisory-Led Expeditions 🧭. They visited cultural landmarks to explore their impact on our local community and why they matter. Student photographers captured the experience alongside their advisors and classmates 📷.
Thank you to 6th grader Kanishk, who documented their visit to Fisherman’s Wharf ⚓️, and 8th grader Bryant, who captured moments from the Japanese Tea Garden 🍵🌿, for their incredible shots! 👏💙
