Buster

Buster enjoyed the Milford School so much that he managed to stay there two semesters after his graduation. He used his blending techniques that he learned at Milford to hide from public view when Jessie suggested he do so. ("Public Relations")

In a flashback, a young Buster is seen wearing a polo from the Milford School. ("Good Grief") Buster is frightened that Lindsay may have sent Maeby to Milford when she calls Openings "the most prestigious school". ("S.O.B.s")

George Michael

George Michael at the Milford School, in "Public Relations"

George Michael was never a student at the Milford School, but Michael Bluth was pushing to get him in. He was rejected due to the Bluth family's poor publicity, notably a recent fight between Lucille and Lindsay at a Klimpy's. Michael hired Jessie to clean up the family's image in the hopes of getting George Michael accepted, but he eventually told his father that he was not interested in attending, so Michael dropped his pursuit.

Annyong

Lucille sends Annyong to the Milford school to teach him a lesson, which she later forgot what that lesson was. ("Afternoon Delight")
