This week, Manchester Township Middle School (MTMS) is welcoming students warmly, complete with high-fives and good vibes during Buddy Day!
Towards the end of each school year, 5th-grade students from Manchester's elementary schools visit MTMS to learn more about the school they will attend in the fall. Today, Ridgeway Elementary School (RES) visited MTMS. The RES 5th graders were welcomed at the door by MTMS Impact Club students and then greeted by MTMS Principal McLaughlin, who worked together with her team to share information about school culture, times, scheduling, sports, and extracurricular opportunities, including drama club, Impact Club, Mustang Mentors, Engineering Team, and more.
Students were then treated to chorus presentations, band presentations, and informational sports presentations before meeting MTMS 6th Grade Impact Club members for school tours. The tours were an opportunity for 5th grade students to get a feel for how MTMS looks and feels during a school day, ask 6th Grade Impact Club members questions, while also receiving tips, tricks, and encouraging words.
An orientation and tours for incoming 6th-grade students and their parents will be held this summer on Wednesday, August 20th. Details will be forthcoming soon!
