T-Mobile Hotspots
Mitchell County Schools partnered with T-Mobile to bring the T-Mobile Project 10 Million to our students. We received a limited number of FREE hotspots for students who need connectivity at home. If you are the parent/guardian of a Mitchell High or Mayland Early College student and are in need of a hotspot, please print, sign and return the agreement linked below. OR visit the school for a printed copy. We will send the hotspot home with your child once the agreement has been signed and returned to the Help Desk. We will be reaching out to middle school students in the near future.
