Good morning, Mooresville.

The Aspen Institute named Mitchell Community College as one of 200 institutions eligible to compete for a $1 million prize for community college excellence on Tuesday — the selection was based on strong student outcomes in retention, completion, transfer, and bachelor's attainment. The college enrolls about 5,000 students per semester and operates campuses in Statesville and Mooresville.

The Statesville ABC Board distributed $100,000 through its Education Grant Program to 11 local agencies on Tuesday to support substance abuse prevention and education efforts — including tutoring, recovery, and family support services.

Board officials said the funds helped expand critical programs that build healthier choices in our community.

Odessa Holmes, a kind phlebotomist who has served at Iredell Health for nearly 50 years, will retire later this month — her work includes starting the mobile car draw program — and she will travel with her husband and spend more time with family.
