We hope all of our fifth grade students and families can attend this event! The Mitchell PTO will be serving light refreshments after the ceremony. Thank you to Mr. Krigbaum, Mr. Popkey and Ms. Padgen for organizing this event. 

Mitchell Modular Addition – Update

As we prepare for the 2018-19 school year, interest from the community in our exceptional schooling program continues to be high. Going forward, we are planning to add another modular to the existing site for the fall. This modular will accommodate our growth and will provide us with more high-quality teaching and learning spaces. I want you to know the modular addition is on track and construction will begin shortly after school is out for summer vacation. I will keep you posted as to the progress of this construction over the summer months. If you have any questions, please call me at school at 997.1216. 

Student Medication

Dear Parents,

 

If your child has medication that is kept at school, please make plans to stop by the office and pick-up the medication by Thursday, June 21. The office will close for the summer on Friday, June 22. Thank you for your help!

Summer Book Give-Away

Our summer book giveaway is fast approaching.  During the last week of school your child will have the opportunity to select new books to add to your home library.  Please check your child's backpack and set time aside daily to enjoy the books at home over the summer. The at home reading practice this summer is really important to prevent students from regressing over the summer months. 

Mitchell PTO Volunteer Appreciation!

THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS! Anyone and everyone who volunteered at Mitchell School this year is invited to attend a THANK YOU RECEPTION on Wednesday, June 6th in the Community Room from 3:00-4:00. If you have served pizza at movie night, helped in a classroom, set up for an event, assisted at International Night, etc.... please join us so we can show our appreciation.

The last day of school is Friday, June 15 and students will be dismissed at 11:39 AM. This is a half-day for all Ann Arbor Public Schools students. Please plan to arrive at 11:39 to pick up your child. Additionally, year-end report cards will be sent home on this day. Please make sure to look over the report card with your child and celebrate the growth they have made as learners!
