What a wonderful school. The moment you walk in this school you feel at home. The students are very friendly and have been so gracious to my 7th and 8th grade children. We are at Millcreek because of their academics and band program. The teachers have such high goals for their students, which we appreciate at this age. We have appreciated getting to know Mr. Tanner and the friendly office staff. They are very welcoming and concerned about our children. We so appreciate this school! Thank you
