The Mitchell Board of Education is set to convene on Monday to finalize the budget for the upcoming school year. A key focus of the meeting will be the pricing of school meals, which has become a significant concern for many families. With rising food costs and the impact of inflation, the board aims to ensure that meal prices remain affordable while maintaining quality.

In addition to meal pricing, the board will also discuss the after-school KERNELS program, which provides students with enriching activities beyond the classroom. The program has received positive feedback from parents and educators alike, and its future funding and structure will be a vital topic of conversation.

As the board prepares to make these important decisions, community members are encouraged to attend the meeting and voice their opinions. The outcomes of these discussions will have a direct impact on students and families in the district, making it a pivotal moment for the school community.
