GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Mitchell High School introduced me to most of closest friends in a good environment. Mitchell gave me the greatest coach to ever coach me, Joshua Browning. The only thing I would add or change is more school spirit.

we were very satisfied with Mitchell for a long time. however this year, they let their college prep staff go in the middle of prep season. They replaced her with someone who has little understanding of all of the requirements and rules for applying to various colleges which has made it a struggle....
