Afterschool Art Show
On Monday, April 29th students with the Afterschool Program were able to display their artistic abilities as well as their "creative visions" as they presented an Art Show which consisted of the theme, "We Salute Our Troops and Veterans." Manchester Local Schools is "student- centered." This representation clearly defines the effort that is put into their artwork, flower-boxes, and various art projects. This would not be possible without the help of Ms. Caroline Grooms, Mrs. Nicole Pollitt (Site Directors of Basis), Mrs. Crystal Roberts (Art Teacher), Mr. Tony Sparks ( Agricultural Science Teacher), Lisa Morrison and Jenny Lockhart ( for preparing a spaghetti dinner), and Shannon Stewart for her devoted time to the Afterschool Program, plus all the Afterschool Staff and parents of the Manchester Community. The exhibit will be on display until Friday, May 10, 2013 in the Manchester Elementary Cafetorium.
