History

Mitchell High School opened in 1978 as the result of consolidation of all high schools in Mitchell County. It was built in the small unincorporated community of Ledger between the only two municipalities of Mitchell County, Spruce Pine, North Carolina and Bakersville, North Carolina. For some students in the more remote areas of the county such as Pigeonroost and Poplar, a school bus ride of over an hour is not uncommon.

In 2014, the Mitchell High School Show Choir won the state title.[ citation needed ]

Mitchell High School is accredited by both the North Carolina State Department of Public Instruction and Southern Association of Schools.
