Mitchell Elementary is proud to be a Golden Area School nestled between North Table Mountain and the City of Golden. Our school community provides an environment in which all of our 450 students can learn and succeed.

We believe every student has the right to instruction that meets their needs, and therefore have strong shared agreements:
Write More, Give Feedback, Grow Minds, Seek Balance, Make Connections, Visible Learning and Better Together. Our instructional day includes workshop models for learning, restorative practices, movement, and learning progressions.

Our points of pride span the gamut from academic to social emotional to a great place to work and teach. We expect every student will make at least a year's growth in a year's time in all aspects of learning. Mitchell is a designated Healthy School, has strong SEL (Social Emotional Learning) programming, and has a highly involved PTA and volunteer basis made up of parents, Colorado School of Mines work-study students, and more.

Most recently, Mitchell was awarded the John Irwin School of Excellence Award which speaks to the strong commitment of our staff for student learning and success. We value the over 11 languages spoken at Mitchell and around 1/5 of our students are designated Gifted & Talented, for example.

Mitchell is all about community partnerships, teacher collaboration, visible learning, connections and growth.
