Attention Parents! Spring has arrived! This means another fun filled, action packed Field Day at Mitchell Road Elementary.
K5-2nd Grade Field Day - Tuesday, May 14th from 9am to 11am.
3rd-5th Grade Field Day - Wednesday, May 15th from 9am to 11am.
The PE Department is in search of volunteers to help run the games and activity stations on one or both of the days. If you are interested in helping, please email Coach Koontz (email: ekoontz@greenville.k12.sc.us) indicating which day or days you would be willing to help. She is asking volunteers to arrive at 8:30 am and meet in the gym to receive your station assignment. The goal every year is to have multiple people at each station, so everyone can take turns leaving to watch their own child for a few minutes. Thank you in advance for taking time out of your busy schedule to help us on these special days. We could not do it without the help of our volunteers!
