END OF YEAR EVENT SCHEDULES
A printable version of the schedule below is available by clicking here.
TOP DOG "CLAP-OUT" MAY 28th
In a effort to keep the parade moving and not block traffic on Cochran's Crossing Drive, we ask that you please follow the recommended times above to join the parade. Please enter the school drive from the north on Cochran's Crossing Drive and exit south (turn right) onto Cochran's Crossing Drive when leaving the school. This will eliminate crossing traffic.

A NOTE FROM MRS. KLAPESKY, MITCHELL INTERMEDIATE PRINCIPAL
Dear Future Mitchell Mustang Parents,
Here is one last video I wanted to send. We have turned our 4th Grade Parent Orientation into a You Tube video. I hope it gives you even more of an idea of what your child can look forward to in a few months. In addition, some families were having trouble with the link to order their child's Think Up! Math Book. The district actually had to recreate the account. The new link is attached. As a reminder, if you order the EPI School Supply Pack, the Think Up! Math Book is included.
