New Facility

The new Mitchell Community Schools Auxiliary Gymnasium is a 42,500 square foot facility that houses multiple activities across all MCS athletics programs. The new fieldhouse building, which the students have already begun referring to as “The Hive,” includes a weight-room, a dedicated wrestling room with padded walls and floors, three basketball courts with multi-purpose wood-flooring which can be separated with drop-down nets, a multi-sport floor area with netting available for indoor golf and basketball practices, an indoor track on the second level, and concessions. During school days, the building is used for PE classes for both middle and high school, and in the evenings for athletics practices and events. This multi-purpose and multi-sport facility is not only unique to the district, but to the State of Indiana as well.
