Text Box: About MMS

About 650 students attend  B.R. Miller Middle School in grades 6, 7 and 8. Formerly the high school building, our mascot is the Bobkit and our school colors are red and green. Miller is named after the highly regarded and longtime MHS principal.

The Objects of Builders Club explain it best:

· To provide opportunities for working together in service to school and community.

· To develop leadership potential

· To foster the development of strong moral character.

· To encourage loyalty to school, community, and nation.

Welcome to the BRAND NEW Miller Middle School Builders Club page. Some of this page will be under construction as the Noon club works to build this new youth group. But we promise that you will find things of interest , so visit often.

How do students benefit?

 

Middle school years bridge the gap between childhood and young adulthood. It is a crossroads in life. Young people need and want new and exciting challenges that direct their personal development toward the fulfillment of a happy and productive life. Builders Club helps to build strong leaders for tomorrow...today.

Builders Club provides a way to form sound personal values based on experiences in meaningful community-service activities. The members learn by doing. They learn organization, teamwork, and leadership. But the most important lesson they can learn is that individuals working together can and will make a difference to the world around them.

 

Who sponsors a Builders Club?

 

Builders Club is sponsored by Kiwanis International, a nonreligious, nonpolitical, worldwide organization of business professional men and women dedicated to community service. Kiwanis members recognize that young people today want to take an active role in solving problems and meeting needs of the world around them--whether that world is as small as a classroom or as large as a city.

 

One important way Kiwanis clubs serve their local communities is by sponsoring and supporting service organizations for young people. The Kiwanis club organizes the Builders Club by enlisting interest from school administration, and then underwrites costs and provides adult guidance in concert with school personnel. Key Clubs (high school) and Circle K  clubs (college) often get involved with the Builders Club, providing excellent role models. Sponsorship by Kiwanis, Key Club, and Circle K is a winning combination because the ideals of voluntary service are shown by example.
