After having 3 children come through Manchester, I will be sad to leave. What a great school with amazing staff. The teachers are nationally ranked. There are kids and programs from Center based Gifted to Special needs, Every child has a voice! Way to go Manchester!
The culture in the Bldg has been that CBG is favored. I had a child in CBG and now have a child in Honors/Comprehensive. I had hoped that with the new administration last year this would be stopped. There is still hope. The issues need to be brought to the light and discussed by students, parents, faculty and administration.
I for one did not like the CBG kids.They were very mean to the others kids that were not in there class.All the teachers gave them more favor then the rest of us.And the 8th grade math teacher is very very hard on all of his students.He thinks just because he goes to VCU means that we should pick it up in a snap and he yells alot and dosnt not let us act like the teens we are.Sorry but it does not work like that.
The teachers in the Center Based Gifted program are wonderful. My son is challenged and encouraged to meet and excede his academic goals. He is also able to participate in many clubs and activites The diversity of our school is great. Adults and children of many backgrounds get to meet and experience one anothers cultures. The administration, teachers and support staff are dedicated to giving our children the best education in a safe enivronment. The PTA is also Terrific (join your schools PTA they NEED YOU!). We will miss Majestic Pride.
The Center Based Gifted Program is top-notch. I like that my daughter is challenged academically while still being able to participate in all the other activities and events of a regular public middle school. The administrators, teachers, and staff provide the leadership and support to make Manchester Middle School a place where students learn and grow.
They sponsor a great Center Based Gifted program.
The great teachers and the wonderful staff. The school really supperts its children.
