ONLINE SUMMER FORMS

SUMMER FORMS WILL BE AVAILABLE VIA THE PARENT PORTAL MID-JULY

All permissions and acknowledgment forms are done through the secure parent portal, accessible when a parent is logged into Millbrook's website. Please note these steps to complete these important summer forms:
  1. Please login into the Millbrook website via the Login link at the top of the webpage. Click on the forms link in BLUE at the top of your landing page.
  2. All forms that need to be completed will be displayed. If you have more than one child at Millbrook, you will need to complete a form for each child.
  3. There are forms that need to be signed by at least one parent and the student including the Computer Use and Library Use forms. Although two parent signature boxes might be displayed, only one parent must sign. The student must log in with his/her own username and password in order to sign these forms and complete the submission process.
  4. In addition, all parents should review the contact information we have on file. It is important that we have correct address, phone, and email information for each parent. When logged in, click on the down arrow next to your name in the top navigation bar, then click "Profile." Please review your profile and make any changes, if necessary, by clicking on the pencil icon next to the information you need to edit.
  5. Parents should also download important information on the right side of this screen. This includes general lists of what to bring for boarding students, computer specifications, and more. All of these downloads will be available here and on your Parent Resource Board throughout the year.

Following is the required summer reading for students who will be attending Millbrook for the 2023-2024 school year; this list should be read according to the form students will be entering for the upcoming school year. This reading is assessed at the very beginning of the school year, and so it is important that your child completes it.
