History 

Millis Road Elementary opened in the fall of 1961. The first enrollment included 360 students, 12 teachers, a part-time librarian, and one principal. The intent of it being built was to relieve overcrowding in the Jamestown district. Even though the school originally had a capacity for 560 students, it at one time served a student body of 792. When the neighboring Pilot Elementary opened in the fall of 1996, the student body decreased to 330. The current enrollment is 456 students. A variety of organizational patterns have been tried at school, beginning with first through sixth grade, later third through fifth grade and the present pre-k through fifth grade. Millis Road is located in District 1 of the Guilford County School System. Our current District 1 Board of Education member is Ms. T. Dianne Bellamy Small. Millis Road is also represented on the Board of Education by At large member, Ms. Winston McGregor.
