Mitchell County Schools

2022 Family Engagement Month
The month of November is celebrated as Parent Engagement Month to recognize the contributions of parents across the nation and to encourage schools to raise awareness of the important role parents play in a child’s education. Click on the title above to read the Proclamation signed by Governor Brian Kemp and an appreciation letter from Mr. Richard Woods, State School Superintendent. Mitchell County School System wants to celebrate our parents. Parents are the first educators and therefore determine the level of achievement of every child.
