Good Evening Greenlee Families! We wanted to inform you that Mr. Rodney Smith has resigned as principal of Greenlee Primary to accept a position in another county. We are happy to announce that Mrs. Adrienne Snyder has been named interim principal of Greenlee Primary for the 2024-25 school year.

Free Breakfast & Lunch for 2024-25 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. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CzDySFquyMGgmLCd_Q1mIu4HquVYViExFVqrQLLZVvE/edit?usp=sharing
