A message about student-led protests

Dr. Vargas emailed a letter to families and staff in the school district outlining expectations for any anticipated student-led protests in Manchester as part of a national call for awareness of gun violence in schools.

In his message, Dr. Vargas states that while the school district is not sponsoring or organizing these events, we recognize schools have a role in managing procedures and safety.

At this time, the superintendent is not aware of definite plans by our students to organize a walk-out.

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.
