We will be holding an enrollment night at the Arbor Meadows Clubhouse for all families who have not yet enrolled for Kindergarten or Young 5's for the 2017-18 school year. Mrs. Sanmiguel will be on hand to answer questions and help with enrollment. If you know of someone with a Kindergarten age student, please tell them to come! More information can be found HERE.

Returning Mitchell Students - Registration for 2017-18 Starts Now!

The Ann Arbor School District is preparing for the 2017-18 school year.  We will be using InfoSnap, an online student pre- ​registration​ validation system, to confirm your student's enrollment for the upcoming school year. The system is a secure process, which allows the district to verify all student demographic, emergency and medical contact information for your child prior to the start of the new school year. The system will also allow you to electronically sign the annual permission forms for school district policies.

 

This week you should have received an email communication in email from backtoschool@a2schools.org with instructions on how to access the system for your student. The email will contain a link/instructions and a secure "snapcode" that links directly to your student's information. Please check your inbox or SPAM folder for a message from backtoschool@a2schools.org.
