I would say I have enjoyed my time at MHS. The administration isn't great and don't seem to put students first but amazing teachers make up for it. The facilities are also really nice for a small school.

I love the community at Mitchell high school. I am on the Mitchell high school dance team and we get lots of support from the town and our school. We are a small town school and we all pretty much know each other pretty well. We see each other a lot in school and out of school, our town is so small that we end up seeing each other out in the town. Something I would like to see change is to make dance an actual sport so we could letter for it and give us the funds we need. Right now we are a club and do all of our own fundraising.

I hate it here. Half the kids are doing drugs of some kind, but the school is too worried about students being on their phones for even a second in the school day.
