Q: no apple tv icon on macbook air (mid 2011 production date)

I have gone to display and there is no option for apple tv icon.  The macbook air is production date 7/2011.  The apple tv works with my iphone5.  Any suggestions?  I don't have the apple tv icon at the top of my macbook air screen.

 

Thank you in advance

    Welcome to the Apple Community.

     

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).
