Young 5's at Mitchell!

Beginning this fall, Mitchell School will be offering a Young 5's program. The Young 5's program is meant to be the "gift of time" for students turning 5 between May 1, 2016 and December 1, 2016. Information about this exciting program can be found HERE

Election Day - Tuesday, March 8

While some schools within AAPS are polling locations and will host community voters during the Presidential Primary next Tuesday, I want you to know that Mitchell School is NOT a polling location. We will do school as normal.

Free food is available for Mitchell families Saturday, March 5 from 9:30-11:00. All Mitchell families who need food are invited to come to Mitchell school for a free food giveaway.

Mitchell Fifth Grade Takes First Place At Academic Games State Tournament!

Mitchell students Alexis Cutler, Anthony Foulkes, Joel Lee,  Austin Kish, Allen Foulkes, Ted Lee, Braden Vibber, and Jevon Wilson joined approximately 600 students from all over Michigan for the Academic Games State Tournament over the past 3 days. Our students did a terrific job representing Mitchell, demonstrating terrific sportsmanship while competing in Equations, On-Sets (set theory), On-Words (a spelling and phonetics word game), Presidents (history and Presidential trivia) and Propaganda (recognizing different forms of persuasion). 

In addition, the 5th grade team, the Mitchell Terminators, won first in their division in On-Words!

Please join our Academic Games coach Vivian Lin in congratulating them all on a job well done at the Academic Games Awards Ceremony at Huron High School at 10 AM on Saturday March 19th in the auditorium.

A heartfelt "Thank You!" to Dr. Lin for her support and guidance again this year!
