Welcome!

Welcome to LaRue Miller Elementary's second year! 2009-2010 promises to be a extraordinary educational journey for our learners and their families. We will travel the world (yes, all seven continents) in 180 school days! Our campus design team has created an interesting theme for learners and their leaders to share throughout the course of our various studies this year. We are ready to set sail, fly high, and soar to new possibilities as we maximize foundations for future leaders!

We are here to serve you! Because communication and collaboration are critical to building trust, please keep the home-school connection open at all times. If you do not receive necessary feedback from a teacher or any staff member, please feel free to call me personally @ 972-775-4497 or email me @ beth_van_amburgh@midlothian-isd.net (I have a tricky last name, thus a long email address!)

On behalf of the entire staff of LME leaders, welcome to our growing campus. We encourage you to involve yourself in a myriad of ways in our daily campus life. You are always welcome to visit, eat lunch, attend campus functions, and volunteer. Because a safe learning environment is critical to student success, please know our front office staff and I follow district guidelines and policies regarding all visitors (details and necessary forms are found in your first-day folders). Please help us by doing your part; we promise to follow-through with our part as well.

You are greatly encouraged to join and support our active Parent-Teacher-Organization (PTO). Check out their website linked to our home page for more detailed information. Join as a family today!

Your involvement in helping us obtain our goals is a valuable asset indeed. As Mrs. Miller herself reminds us, "Our goal is simple . . to help you achieve yours!"

Principal, LaRue Miller Elementary
