“Boom!! Gospel EXPLOSION starts now!” This message is a recent example of the texts students receive on Friday or Saturday night alerting students of the school-sanctioned activities. The Student Activities Association (SAA) holds multiple events for both boarders and day students during the weekend. Some of the most popular ones include: a hypnotist, Beatnik (a student talent show), dances, massage night, and van runs to ice cream and the movies. Starting at 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, the activities offer a great forum for social interaction in a central location. It is common for day students to drive to campus and participate in these activities.
Personally, as a result of athletic games, I am on campus for most of the weekend. I always look forward to the range of activities offered at Milton. My favorite in the past four years was when SAA brought the rap group “The Deans List” to campus. Basically, there was a free rap contest in King Theatre for the whole school. I don’t think there are many other places you can find this experience in high school. Students eagerly await the text and email alerting them to what new cool thing is coming to Milton this weekend.
Hi, and thanks for visiting us! We’re the leaders of Milton’s Orange and Blue Key (OBK) Society. OBK is the group of about 160 students who give tours to students and families visiting our campus. We work closely with the admission office to make sure you get a good sense of what it’s like to be a student at Milton. We hope that you’ll visit us in person, and until then, enjoy this “insider’s” view of the School we love.
