Summer reading send-off


Many elementary school students will be receiving books as they leave for the summer, thanks to the generosity of Hugh Poza of GALE Cengage Learning in Bedford. Mr. Poza, who has worked as an education sales consultant for several years, had accumulated more than 2,000 student books and close to 1,000 instructional texts and materials that were designated as giveaways to schools. He chose to make the donation to the Manchester School District, where he felt the books would serve students best.


Reading teachers from several schools spent the morning at the district office sorting the books into grade levels and boxing them up to be distributed to schools and students across the city.

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...
