Mitchell Free Food Distribution

All Mitchell and Scarlett families are welcome to pick up free food at Mitchell School on Saturday, October 7 at 9:30 AM.  If you have registered before, you will not need to register again.  If you have not previously registered, it is a short process.

 

This is available to all Mitchell and Scarlett families on the first Saturday of each month. Thank you to Community Action Network and Food Gatherers for their partnership in bringing this service to our community.

Mitchell PTO Fun Run

The fun run is coming up on Friday, October 6! This is a PTO sponsored event that promotes wellness and exercise while raising funds for our school. The PTO is still looking for parent volunteers to help with the fun run! You can find contact information HERE.

Mitchell School Picture Day

Picture day is scheduled for Thursday, October 5th here at school. An informational flyer and order form came home in backpacks this week. You can also order pictures online by visiting mylifetouch.com with ID LM457098Y0. 

Parent Teacher Conferences – Coming Soon!

Mitchell parent-teacher conferences are coming soon! If you have not yet set a time with your child's teacher, please reach out to him or her this week. Conference nights are scheduled for October 16, October 19 and October 26. 

Parking at Mitchell

There are some parking spots available in front of Mitchell School.  Additional parking is available in the Scarlett parking lot behind Mitchell School. Please DO NOT park in the front circle drive - ever. Parked cars create a traffic flow problem that can cause unsafe situations.

 

If you need to enter the building, please park in a parking space in one of our lots. Cars will line up on Lorraine as an entrance line into Mitchell and should not be parked on Lorraine. If you'd like to park, you can park in the Scarlett lot in the back or in the front Mitchell lot. Please know that I'm working to get a second call box on the back door so we can buzz parents in securely through the back door, as well as the front door. Thank you for your help! 

Mighty Mustangs Math

The Mighty Mustangs Math program is an after school math intervention program focused on developing mathematical skills in students. This program runs in the fall for students in 3rd through 5th grade. Parents of students who demonstrate and need and could benefit from this intervention will be contacted.

Late Morning Arrivals

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.

 

Thank you for help,
Matt
