Green Acres food drive benefits New Horizons for Manchester shelter and food pantry


A van from New Horizons for New Hampshire picked up more than a dozen large boxes full of food and personal care items donated by Green Acres Elementary School. In honor of their 100th day of school the kindergarten classes at Green Acres challenged all of the other classrooms to donate at least 100 items toward a food drive this month.

This is the second year of the school-wide effort to support New Horizons, an idea started by Mrs.Stone's kindergarten class last year. All together, the school contributed 1,373 items today.

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
