And the winner is — Sarah Stommen from the Junior class! To celebrate International Education Week, November 13–17, students at Manchester Junior/Senior High School had an opportunity to participate in a contest. Questions were asked during announcements and answers were collected in the office. The activity focused on information about our seven exchange students.

The goal of International Education Week is to build understanding and respect among differing cultures and enhance leadership in the global community. Sarah was the winner of a gift card to World Market! Congratulations!

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