Dive on in!

The water is just fine here in the Mitchell Volunteer Pool!  January is chock full of fun volunteer opportunities.  We're showing The Secret Life of Pets at the movie night on Friday, January 20.  It's a blast to enjoy a family movie with our extended Mitchell fam!  There's always lots of food to sell and serve and kids to corral, so please join us to keep things running smoothly that night!

On January 27 after school PTO will be setting up for Mitchell's next Scholastic Book Fair!  The Book Fair  runs Monday, January 30 through Wednesday, February 1.  Take as many shifts as you can!  Book Fair time is my favorite time, it's a fun way to get to know students and what they're interested in.  It's also a way to earn books for the school, and of course, get kids and families excited about reading!  Volunteer for the Book Fair at http://tinyurl.com/JanSBF
Of course, we are still recruiting for the Science Olympiad!  We need parent volunteers and students from second through fifth grades to compete.  Please see Michell Foulkes if you have any questions about this exciting competition!
You can also head to the Mitchell PTO's next meeting on Tuesday, January17th at 6 pm in the school library.  We'll be discussing updates on these activities and more, like the upcoming and sure-to-be-rad International Night.  Actually, the next planning meeting for the International Night is coming up after school on January 12.  We'd LOVE to have your thoughts on this event, all are welcome!
