We invite Mitchell families to wear traditional clothing from any country, culture, heritage or a team jersey. Please no Halloween costume attire.

Additionally, Mitchell students will be creating some items in Art class based on their heritage. Please discuss your child's unique heritage with him/her in the coming weeks. It will be amazing to see the multitude of backgrounds of Mitchell School families displayed during International Night.
