      The Mitchell Foundation for Academic Excellence was founded in late 1992 with a stated goal of providing positive leadership in education, encouraging innovative programs, and supporting creativity by teachers. The Foundation raises funds to help teachers and administrators provide students with educational experiences and programs not covered by tax dollars. The Foundation also partners with the Bay State Foundation in funding scholarships for graduating seniors.
     In the fall, the Foundation receives grant applications from teachers for equipment, books, software, and other items to enhance student's learning experience in the classroom. The Foundation reviews the applications and supports the most appropriate grants with the available funds. Since 1995 the Foundation has distributed over $21,000 for these grants. Additionally, over $20,000 has been awarded in scholarships.
     The Mitchell Foundation for Academic Excellence has a principle fund-raising event each year, a golf tournament held in June. The Foundation also accepts donations from memorials, individuals, and classes. Gifts greater than $250 are recognized on a permanent plaque hung in the Foyer of the Mitchell High School Gymnasium.
     To obtain further information or to donate to the Foundation, contact The Mitchell Foundation for Academic Excellence, P.O. Box 174, Mitchell NE 69357, or any of the board of directors.
