Late After School Pick-Up

We are noticing some students are not being picked up on time from school. As a reminder, the bell rings at 3:59. It is not okay for students to be left unattended at school. Please plan to arrive in the school pick-up line by 3:59. We will do our very best to move the line of cars through the pick up line as quickly and safely as possible. Thank you for your help. 

Handicap Parking Spaces – Mitchell

Dear Mitchell Families,

If you pick your child up at the end of the day, I'm asking that you please do not block access to the handicap parking spaces. It's important that these spaces remain accessible for people to enter and exit without others blocking the spaces. If you have questions about this, please contact me at school.

 

Thank you for your help!

Science Olympiad Team Forming

We are looking for some more Science Olympiad coaches. Science Olympiad is for 2-5th grade students, but we need coaches before we can form teams. Check out the links for the events! You can do this! You do not need to be an expert. YOU, the coach, set the practice schedule day and time. Contact Cathleen Haglund at haglundcathleen@gmail.com

Girls On The Run Team

GIRLS ON THE RUN is need of coaches. You do not need to be a runner! We just need coaches to supervise and motivate the girls on their journey! The commitment depends on the number of coaches. It's about a 10-week program from March through May and practices are 2x a week-- less per coaches if we have more coaches.  Please contact Jan Duncan, the media specialist. duncanj@aaps.k12.mi.us

We are noticing many students who are arriving late to school. As a reminder, the bell rings at 8:56. Please make sure children are dropped off for school on time. Late student arrivals cause disruptions to classrooms when kids and teachers have already begun their day of learning. Please do your very best to have your children to school on time.
