MSD114 instructional leaders spent the day in Eureka Squared Mathematics LEAD training. They're equipped and ready to lead our K-8 staff and students through our new resources for math instruction!
Incoming Kindergarten students had some special visitors yesterday!
Many thanks to Aidan Casey, former Manhattan 114 student, for serving our district through his Eagle Scout project. Aidan built a custom shelf to store instruments for Mrs. Miller-Amato's music classroom at Wilson Creek. Congratulations and thank you, Aidan!
