Celebrating Our Principals!
As we wrap up Principal Appreciation Month, we're celebrating the dedicated leaders who make a difference in our schools every day.
Through our Principal for a Day opportunity, community members and local leaders stepped into the role of principal, gaining a firsthand look at the leadership, collaboration, and care that go into supporting our students and school communities. Thank you to those that volunteered for this amazing opportunity.
Hear their reflections and see some of the moments that made this experience special as we recognize the incredible work of our principals on YouTube at youtu.be/yK5kpIdC7Z4 .
Thank you to our principals for all that you do to help our students and schools thrive!

Area One Families: Share Your Feedback on Middle School Opportunities.
Aiken County Public Schools is exploring potential changes to the middle school structure in the Aiken area, and we want to hear from you!
The District is considering a return to a traditional grades 6–8 middle school structure, with dedicated sixth-grade academies to help students transition successfully from elementary school. This change would also require adjustments to existing school attendance zones.
Additionally, we are exploring opportunities for specialized thematic programs at Area One middle schools, giving students the chance to pursue their interests through hands-on learning and career exploration.
No decisions have been made. As we consider these possibilities, feedback from our families is essential to understanding community priorities and helping inform our next steps.
We encourage all Area One parents and guardians to take a few minutes to complete our survey.
Share Your Feedback: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/r/LeRLS793Rt
Thank you for your continued partnership and for helping us explore opportunities that best support the students and families of Area One.

Let’s show our Millbrook Chorus some love!
If you know Mrs. Osteen, you know how much she loves this school. She is the first to cheer us on, the first to jump in when someone needs help, and one of the biggest advocates our students could ever ask for. No matter what the day brings, she shows up for our staff, our students, and our families with so much heart.
She believes in our people, pushes us to be our best, and celebrates our wins right alongside us. And those wins have been BIG! Two years in a row earning an EXCELLENT rating! 🎉 We are so proud of what our Millbrook family has accomplished, and we are thankful for the leadership that continues to help us grow. 💙
Mrs. Osteen, we hope you know that all the little things you do, the encouragement you give, the problems you help solve, the students you stand up for, and the passion you bring to Millbrook every day make a difference in ways you may never fully see. You give so much of yourself to this school, and we are so lucky to have you leading our Colts.
We appreciate you more than words can say, and we hope you feel just a little of the love you pour into all of us!
Help us celebrate our amazing Mrs. Osteen! She deserves all the love today and every day! 🐎
