Mitchell's Message Board
Mitchell did not make Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) on the New Mexico Standards Based Assessment as required by the No Child Left Behind Act. Our students scored 53% in math and 58% in reading. According to the No Child Left Behind Act, by the 2013-14 school year, 100% of our students must score proficiency in Math and Reading. Each year the target number increases. The 2009-2010 target is 57% for math and 67% for reading. Just know that the Mitchell staff will continue to strive for improvement for all our students. Your encouragement and support sustains our work. As teachers and parents we are in this together. I think we make an unbeatable team!

ParentLink Information
APS has implemented ParentLink, the new district-wide communication system this school year. Parents will receive a phone call or e-mail every time their child is late or absent. As soon as teachers take attendance, the system begins to call or e-mail the parents to notify them of their child’s absence or tardies, whether excused or unexcused. Please continue to call the school to report your child’s absence or tardy. ParentLink will also be used to notify you of upcoming events, school delays or closings, if your child has a negative account in the cafeteria, and in the event of an emergency. Please remember to notify the office if you have a change of contact information.
New Requirements for Parent Volunteers!
Any parent or adult volunteer who will be with children without an APS employee present (i.e.: driving on a field trip, tutoring, etc.) must obtain a background check and fingerprinting. This must be done through APS and the cost is $29.95 to be paid by money order or cashier's check. Get a volunteer form from our office prior to going to APS. Approval notification will be obtained within 48 hours. Thanks for your support!
Anyone coming on campus MUST SIGN IN AT THE OFFICE AND RECEIVE A VISITOR'S BADGE TO BE WORN WHILE ON CAMPUS!!
Please park on in the designated parking lots. We must keep the circle drives clear during the day for any possible emergency and clear during pick-up and drop-off times for the safety of our children!!
