An invitation to participate in Jeans Day, December 8, for a good cause

By
Dear Principals of Manchester School District,

The 5th graders at Parker-Varney School are working toward the common goal of making the lives of the homeless veterans at the Liberty House a little bit brighter.  We are trying to raise money and collect supplies to donate to this charity.  We are going to be putting our skills together to sell candy cane grams and contact local businesses and community members to donate to this cause.  We will be presenting them with these donations and a holiday concert at a luncheon at MST on December 18 at noon.
We have been granted permission for Superintendent Livingston to hold a jeans day, where participating teachers would make a donation of $5.00. All money collected would be donated to the Liberty House to help the homeless veterans of Manchester.  December 7 is the Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day so we are asking for Monday, December 8 to be the designated jeans day.  All money raised by your school should be sent to Parker-Varney by Friday, December 12.  If you write a check please make it payable to the Liberty House.

We appreciate you consideration for the request and look forward to hearing back from you to let us know if you will be participating in this event.  Thank you for your help!

Sincerely,
Ayesha Khan
Carlee O’Neil

WANTED: Community professionals to participate in Career Day

On Wednesday, March 29, 2017, Manchester High School West is hosting a school-wide Career Day. The structure will be different from similar events that often follow a "career fair"-type format in which professionals representing various fields set up displays and wait to be approached by interested students. At West, every teacher will be matched with a guest speaker related to his or her subject area. For example, in the math department, one teacher may host an accountant while other math teachers host a stockbroker or a carpenter. Students will follow their regular schedules and be introduced to a different career field with each class change. Speakers are asked to give a hands-on or interactive presentation to the classes they meet. West is offering full-day and half-day sessions for interested professionals. Lunch will be provided in all sessions. Full day. 7:15 am - 3:00 pm Morning only, 7:l5 am - 11:30 am Afternoon only, 11:00 am - 3:00 pm Members of the com...
