A truly special warmth filled the air at Milam Elementary on Friday evening, May 2nd, as the school community came together for a delightful picnic under the early autumn sky. From 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, the school grounds transformed into a haven of connection, thanks to the thoughtful planning of the Milam PTO. The sound of children's laughter mixed with friendly chatter as parents, students, and staff shared smiles and enjoyed simply being together in the relaxed, joyful atmosphere.
The evening buzzed with heartwarming moments, from brave students taking the mic for karaoke tunes to the shared fun of simple games enjoyed side-by-side. Principal Ms. Hernandez moved through the gathering, her presence adding to the feeling of a unified family. This picnic beautifully illustrated that Milam is far more than bricks and mortar; it's a place where hearts connect, support flourishes, and a genuine sense of belonging makes everyone feel truly at home.
