OCTOBER BOE MEETING - STUDENT RECOGNITIONS!
Each month, the Board of Education recognizes students from every school at their meeting. This month the Board of Education celebrated the following students and their achievements with the community:
Manchester Township Elementary School
Manchester Township Elementary School’s (MTES) first grader Elijah is a kind and well-mannered young man who is not only hard working in school but also a role model to those around him. During recess, he is always looking out for his friends and other students' safety. He is always willing to take another student to the nurse without hesitation, and most importantly, he shows kindness to everyone he encounters. We are so proud of Elijah and the example he sets to all students at MTES!
Ridgeway Elementary School
Ridgeway Elementary School is celebrating two students this month!
Kindergartener Abigail is always participating in group discussions and activities; she has a wealth of knowledge that drives our discussions outside of the box. Whenever a student needs help with anything, she is eager to assist without being asked. She is an amazing student who has adapted to kindergarten and classroom & school effortlessly!
Edgar is a remarkable fifth-grader who embodies the qualities of a great student and leader. Recently selected as a Safety, he has demonstrated exceptional leadership, a strong sense of community, and a commitment to responsibility. Edgar consistently helps others, earning the respect of his peers and teachers alike, making him a role model in his school. His ability to inspire and support those around him truly sets him apart as a young leader.
Whiting Elementary School
Whiting Elementary School’s (WES) bus safeties are student leaders in the area of transportation. They assist kindergarten students with safely getting off the bus upon arrival and on the bus for departure. They help model and teach other students about bus safety. Their assistance aids our bus drivers in safely transporting students to and from school. Thank you, fifth graders: Easton, Emily, Joseph, Ava, Addie, Josh, Rylie, Evie, Billy, and Daniel!
Regional Day School
Congratulations to Chris who is Regional Day School’s student of the month! Chris is always making sure his teachers and friends are okay and have everything they need. Chris is such a gentleman and is always holding the door for everyone. He always brightens up everyone's day with his amazing singing and hilarious jokes. Chris has made significant improvements with his behavior in school and continues to be flexible within the classroom. He is such a smart young man!
Manchester Township Middle School
MTMS is so proud to recognize Daphne Jones as the Student of the Month. Daphne is a talented, hard-working 7th grader who is a member of the drama club and chorus. Daphne was asked to lend her incredible talents this summer in a concert on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights. The concert featured Broadway performers from New York City who have performed in Anastasia, Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Aladdin, and more. Daphne’s powerful performance of “Poor, Unfortunate Souls” from The Little Mermaid was well received by a large audience. Also, Daphne recently performed in Amateur Night at the Apollo Theater, NYC, and placed first. Congratulations Daphne!
Manchester Township Middle School – Athletes of the Month
We are extremely proud to have Kaleb Kura and Madison Peck represent Manchester Township Middle School (MTMS) as our student-athletes for the month of October. Kaleb and Madison are both a great representation of what it means to be a student-athlete. They are both 8th-grade leaders of our cross country teams, work just as hard in the classroom as they do in the athletic arena, and serve as excellent examples to our younger students and fellow student-athletes.
Manchester Township High School
…would like to recognize the students who volunteered their time in order to serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in our community. A big thank you goes out to… Marisiya Goins, Bella Raimondi, Samantha Bouza, Mateo Solis, Kiara Davila, and Sephira Lewis.
Manchester Township High School Athletes of the Month
Senior Emma Edwards has helped lead our team to an 8-5 record, qualifying for the Shore Conference Tournament and an early season upset over #3 Wall Township. With 5 goals and a team-leading 9 assists she is a playmaker who has become the backbone of our team at center midfield.
Senior Goalkeeper Noah Cundiff has been keeping the Hawks in every game on the way to a 7-6 record. He has 90 saves, 8th in the Conference, and has had 4 shutouts on the season. Emma and Noah represent us well on and off the field by modeling a strong academic and athletic work ethic, displaying good sportsmanship, and being solid team players.
Congratulations everyone!
