Exciting News: 

The walls to our new addition are going up! It's an exciting time to be at Mitchell School. If you have a moment, stop by and check out the progress! Please know that safety continues to be our number one priority. Children are not allowed near the construction site. 

Early Student Pick-Up

It's important for students to stay in school until the end of the day. It is disruptive to the learning of the child and the classroom to have kids being picked up early. Of course, if a child needs to be picked up early for an appointment that is fine. Please limit early pick up to important appointments only. Thank you. 

Mitchell PTO Fun Run

The 3rd Annual Mitchell School Fun Run will be held on May 13th during the day here at school! Information packets have come home via backpack mail. The Fun Run is a great way to celebrate and encourage physical activity while raising money for our school. The PTO is looking for more parent volunteers to help make this a great day. Please consider volunteering! You can sign up HERE

Mitchell Free Food Distribution

Free food is available for Mitchell families on Saturday, May 7 beginning at 9:30 AM. 

All Mitchell families who need food are invited to this event. If you can benefit from a 

free food distribution, please come!
