Hello from Mayland Early College. Tomorrow college classes resume. If you cannot get to campus then you can work on the courses online. If you do not have access to the internet then please call your instructor and the college liaison to leave a message. High school will not resume until Mitchell County Schools deem it safe. Our building will be open this week if students want to come by and work on assignments but in no way is it required. Students in college classes have my permission to drop classes depending on the class expectations. Some instructors are waiving assignments, some are providing extensions, and some are requiring everything to be completed by Nov 12. Thus if you are in a stressful situation please email me so we can discuss your options. My primary concern is your physical and mental wellbeing. Hopefully we can get back on track soon. If you wish to participate in the Halloween event please email one of the teachers and fill out the Google form sent last week. Thank you and have a great week.

Next week, September 23-27, is School Bus Ridership Week across school districts in North Carolina. The funding that we get for transportation is dependent on the number of students who ride a school bus during this week. Even if your child rides the bus occasionally, we ask that they please ride at least one day next week.

Fifteen Mayland Early College students volunteered at the Empty Bowls Project on August 17th. This was a great opportunity for the students to be involved with quality service programs and learn lifelong lessons on giving back to the community. The students shared they really enjoyed the experience and look forward to serving in other ways this coming school year.

We are excited about the upcoming school year and the changes and opportunities that it will bring for our students. As usual, kindergarten will have a staggered entry based on last name to help them become acclimated to school. Also, we will have a staggered entry based on grade level for Mitchell Elementary and Mitchell Middle this year. We hope this will be better for students to become familiar with the building and parents to become familiar with drop-off/pick-up procedures. Mitchell High School and Mayland Early College will have a regular schedule for all students beginning the first day of school. The document below outlines the schedule for the first week for each school.

Good afternoon from Mayland Early College High School. This is a brief reminder that textbooks from spring and summer courses must be returned by next Tuesday to ensure that students get the needed textbooks for the fall semester. School staff members are working diligently to ensure all textbooks are ready. If books are not returned promptly then our supply is limited. Thank you and enjoy the remainder of your summer break.
