HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

What an awesome week we had at Mill Springs Academy! We welcomed another new student, this time in CommArts, our wrestlers have wrapped up their season (read about that awesomeness below), there was a Parent U event, an open house, baseball playoffs, and of course today's Valentine's Day festivities. Lower School even had a student dress as Cupid! So much fun.

 

Today is the Official Day of Love – If no one else tells you, I will – I love you, I am sending you some love today. I hope you won’t share love just on this day though, every day should be the Official Day of Love. Love is something that does you no good if you keep it, it is meant to be shared; besides it really isn’t even love until you do share it, right? Have a terrific weekend - there is even the possibility of a rain-free weekend. See you Tuesday!
