Red Hawk Update
Manchester High School: March 23, 2022
From The Principal
Dear MHS Red Hawk Community,
This newsletter is full of updates including photos of our state champion hockey players and our track athletes who placed at Nationals! We are also eager to see the first musical in three years back in Bailey Auditorium this week. Be our guest this week at Beauty and the Beast on Thursday, Friday or Saturday at 7:00 pm!
And of course, remember that the third quarter closes next Friday, April 1. Please take a close look at grades and assignments in Home Access and get those papers and projects done and tests or quizzes made up. Please reach out to your child's teacher or school counselor with any questions about quarter three progress.
Have a good week!
