Mitchell County Schools EC Program would like to thank Subs with SuitCASEs for visiting our RISE and LIFE classrooms. A great time was had by all!
Subs with SuitCASEs (Creative Approaches to Substitute Education) is a unique collaboration that places professional teaching artists in local classrooms, supporting students and teachers.
Lessons provide students with engaging curriculum-related art activities that explore school topics through visual art, storytelling, music, drama, poetry and more. Penland Community Collaborations staff work as teaching artists during these rounds, along with professional artists from our area.
The past few weeks students in our EC classrooms, in all of our schools,have had the amazing opportunity to have Subs with SuitCASEs artists, Sam Maren (storytelling and music) and Michelle Lord (visual art) visit and present multi sensory lessons.
A special thank you to RISE Disaster Relief & Recovery and Mission Christmas for providing new Nike shoes to our students! Gouge Primary and Mitchell High School students received their shoes today. Greenlee Primary, Mitchell Elementary, Mitchell Middle and Mayland Early College will receive their shoes after spring break.
One more day until Spring Break begins! We hope everyone has a safe Spring Break next week and will see you on Monday, April 21.

Mitchell County Schools was made aware this evening of an arrest in the community of a non-Mitchell County Schools employee, who works for another area educational organization. Mitchell County Schools can confirm that this matter does not involve any students, per Mitchell County Sheriff Street.
There is information that is being shared on social media and in the community about an incident at one of our schools today. Discipline issues and threats are thoroughly investigated by school administrators and, if necessary, law enforcement according to school and district policy. As always, if there were immediate or credible threats made, parents would be notified. We care about the safety of all students.
If you haven't checked out the Student Art Show at the TRAC Gallery in Spruce Pine, this is the final week of the show. Thank you to our art teachers, Penland, and TRAC for the opportunities in art they provide our students. We love looking at the work of our talented students!
