Voices of Our School

Our school is defined by the people who invest in it every day: students, families, faculty, community leaders and a network of alumni.

Tovah Wiersum Year 3

"One of my favorite things about West Millbrook is that we are an IB school. I really enjoy going to an IB school because we are able to learn about different countries and cultures."

 

Student

Maria Ces

"Every time you walk in the school you see students learning in classes and collaborative spaces and you can see they are enjoying what they are doing."

Teacher

Christine Youth, M.Ed, NBCT

"I have proudly been a Wildcat for 20 years and counting! One of my children’s experiences in the IB MYP inspired her to continue in the IB Programme in high school."

Teacher

Libby Taylor

"My son has thrived during his time at West Millbrook both socially and academically. It's a place where a diverse group of students can all find their place be it athletics, fine arts, academics, leadership, or special interest."

Parent

Mike Collins

"I love being back at my old (now new) middle school as an assistant principal. I wish my middle school years were as unique and exciting as the IB experience at West Millbrook!"
