Patrons who want a say in how the Mitchell School District approaches the 2021-22 school year in terms of pandemic safety protocols will get their chance soon.
Administrators with the district will be posting preliminary return-to-school protocols on the school district website and invite the public to review and send comments on returning to school as the pandemic appears to continue to wane.
“This is not for the board to vote on at this time. This is our first blush at this, and we’re going to put it on the website and invite public input,” Superintendent Joe Graves said during Monday night s regular Mitchell Board of Education meeting. “We’ll use the same format as last year, but the information is quite different. There is no mask mandate and a few other things have been removed.”

After a school year of Mitchell Technical College offices being up to 30 degrees colder than other rooms around the campus, the Mitchell Board of Education Monday approved the purchase of an air-handling unit that is expected to remedy the problem.
The board approved the action by unanimous vote at the Mitchell Career & Technical Education Academy during the latest regular meeting of the board.
Joe Graves, superintendent for the Mitchell School District, said school officials determined the source of the problem was an air unit in the kitchen area. The district let out bids for the project, and received one bid from Johnson Controls in the amount of $133,175, which he recommended the board accept.
