Mitchell High FFA had 14 members attend the 2023 National FFA Convention and Expo in Indianapolis, Indiana in November. The students attending were able to attend a variety of workshops, view exhibits, and learn more about agriculture. During the trip, they also toured the Lousiville Slugger facility and museum and the Kentucky Derby golf course and museum. The trip was a great leadership and learning experience for the FFA students and they enjoyed the opportunity to attend this trip with their FFA Advisor and MHS CTE Instructor Mr. Chad Huggins.

As part of National Career Development Month, Mrs. Boone invited Anthea Biddix to speak to her Early Childhood Education classes. Anthea is the Mitchell County Preschool Coordinator. Anthea discussed the process of evaluation for preschool students and her role in providing those services in Mitchell County. The students were able to learn what she does on a daily basis and what services are provided for preschool students. This was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn about a career related to Early Childhood Education.
