Seeing Them For Ourselves

Dr. Avard has joined a few of his fellow board members in personally touring the schools of our district.

To date, he has visited all 23 kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school, as well as the Manchester School of Technology and the new location of MCTV.

These tours have been educational and enlightening for all those involved.  There is no better way to learn about the needs and accomplishments of our schools and students than to visit with the teachers, aids, administration and students in the classroom setting.

Dr. Avard looks forward to repeating these tours and developing further initiatives to stay in contact with the residents, students and leaders of Manchester.
