It is with great sadness that The Manchester High School Alumni Association announces that the 143rd Annual Alumni Banquet scheduled for June 20th, 2020 has been cancelled. With the shut down of the schools for the remainder of the year and and the uncertainty of the COVID-19 situation, there is no other choice.

Every effort is being made to continue the process of gathering and reviewing scholarship applications, and the Alumni board will do everything in its power to make the awards, as they have for several years.

When there are further details to report on that process, they will be shared.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
