Millbrook is proud to offer the Environmental Connections magnet theme. This specialized Environmental Connections program is built on nature-based learning. It leverages children's innate interest in nature to instill scientific inquiry, critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
With daily instruction across all content areas delivered through Millbrook's Big Ideas of Environental Connections, this program offers authentic, hands-on opportunities to investigate and connect with local and global issues outside the school's walls.
