Other Important News

The Mitchell Parent Spotlight is quickly becoming the most popular page on the FoM website. Have you seen who has been in the spotlight?

Everything Friends of Mitchell does for our school is contingent on donations from Mitchell families. In the past year FoM has donated iPads, Google Chromebooks, teacher supplies, Hubbard Street Dance, Winter Wonderland, Creative Dramatics, plants and supplies for the Mitchell Garden, Girls on the Run, sports uniforms and books to classrooms and the media center. Please consider a recurring donation or a one time donation to Friends of Mitchell.

Huge thank you to Andy Kaplan (pre-k parent) and Bill Dahms (kindergarten parent) for organizing the 2nd Annual Mitchell Chili Cook-Off.  Everyone had a great time, ate some great chili and the event raised $325.00 for Friends of Mitchell!
