This scrapbook was presented to Kathleen Mitchell from the various employees of the district at the time of her retirement.
Mitchell (1870-1940) served in the Fulton County School System for forty-two years . Born in Athens, she attended the State Normal School and began her career with Fulton County in 1897.

In her role as Primary Supervisor, she promoted manual training and beautification of school grounds as part of learning, as well as emphasized the role of education in communities.
