EAGLE PRIDE
ACADEMICS
MODEL UN
A huge thanks to the Milton Model UN team for giving up their long weekend to represent Milton High School at the
Georgia Tech Model UN Conference. Our delegates were, as always, well prepared, professional, and well spoken. Congratulations to
Isabella Banich for bringing home the
BEST PRESS CORPS award for Milton. Finally, a firm handshake to
Ryan Barr for his committee award as "
Most likely to take over the world."
MILTON WITH 10 NATIONAL MERIT SEMIFINALISTS
We are extremely proud to announce Milton's latest National Merit Semifinalists. They are:
- Pranav Athimuthu
- Anna Bukowski
- Maxwell Guo
- Niraj Jinan
- Erin Joyce
- Soham Kar
- Rithwik Koppaka
- Kayleigh Monahan
- Mira Mutnick
- David Schertz
Announced by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, this is the first round of competition for students seeking the distinction of being named a National Merit Scholar and receiving the scholarship money associated with it. Scholarship winners will be announced in the spring. The students were identified through exceptionally high scores on the PSAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which they took as juniors. As semifinalists, the students now must fulfill several requirements in order to advance to the finalist round. They must have a record of high academic performance, be endorsed and recommended by their school leadership, and earn SAT scores that confirm their earlier qualifying test performance. The National Merit Scholarship Corporation conducts the annual National Merit Scholarship and National Achievement Scholarship programs.
Congratulations to our National Merit Semifinalists!
PERFORMING ARTS
MARCHING BAND
Congratulations once again to the Milton Marching Band! In addition to earning the rating of "Superior" at Saturday's Carrollton High School "Legacy of Champions" competition, the band received honors for 1st in class (and division) colorguard, percussion and overall band. Furthermore, the band received the "Don Hall Outstanding Music Award" for the highest music performance caption score of the day. At the end of the awards ceremony (and for the second time this season), the band was named "Grand Champions" with the highest overall score out of the eighteen competing groups. Congratulations, Eagles!
ATHLETICS
CROSS COUNTRY
Milton Victorious at Richmond Hill Invitational
Eagles Sweep the Races at Hill on Wheels/Fishy Meet outside Savannah Richmond Hill, GA.
Milton 's Cross Country teams were extremely successful this past weekend at the Hill on Wheels/Fishy Invitational, hosted by Richmond Hill High School at Sterling Creek Park in suburban Savannah. Due to Hurricane Michael, The Eagles were forced to change their annual overnight meet trip from Albany to Richmond Hill at the last-minute but that did not deter Milton from delivering a overwhelming performance capturing and sweeping all four races that were contested.
Next up for the Milton Cross Country teams is the GHSA Area/Regional Meet at Boiling Park in Canton, GA on Saturday morning, October 20 in a meet that will determine the GHSA state meet qualifiers from our Area & region. The GHSA State meet for the 7A classification is Saturday, November 3 at Carrollton ES in Carrollton, GA.
VOLLEYBALL
Congratulations to the Varsity Girls Volleyball team on being Region 5 AAAAAAA Champions. They play an amazing 5 set match Thursday night to beat the number one seed South Forsyth for the title. The night before they beat the number two seed Lambert in five sets in the semis. They are on to State next weekend, October 20 and we will be hosting the games.

Milton Theatre's Annual Fundraiser runs until October 16! Theatre families are selling $20 raffle tickets for a chance to win one of three (3) CASH prize drawings of $5,000, $3,000 and $1,000. This will be the largest fundraising effort for MASK (Milton Actor's Support Krew), and will be of tremendous help in meeting the 2018-2019 costs of the program such as annual expenses, cirque equipment and theatre technical equipment.
