Manton Elementary School

Manton Elementary is a school where student learning thrives and children feel good about the place they call their school. We believe that this is because of the incredible students that attend our school, the awesome staff who believe that relationships with students are key to optimal learning and more importantly the incredible support of our families. Manton Schools PTO could not fund wonderful learning opportunities and the fun things we do here without your monetary support. Please know that no amount is too small. Your ongoing backing and support are both truly appreciated. Your donations will help pay for: Playground upgrades and equipment Field Trips Rewards for educational programs (March is Reading Month and Fun, Educational Assemblies Book vending machine Teachers’ needs not otherwise met through School Funding Annual donation to Outdoor Education Books for students’ home libraries Kindergarten welcome shirts Teacher/Staff Appreciation Donation to families in need All donations can be turned into the elementary office or you can donate online: https://app.99pledges.com/fund/RangersHaveFun Fundraiser ends April 19th

Elementary Call-out on Sunday, August 16: Good evening Manton Elementary families! I wanted to call with a few updates and reminders. We sent home our COVID-19 screener checklist and agreement. Please remember to have your child bring the signed agreement on the first day of school. The checklist stays home so that you can use it each morning! We will be sending home a packet later this week, and you should receive this packet a few days before the first day of school. In this packet, you will find your child's teacher's Seesaw information. Use this information to sign-up for your child's Seesaw page. We will be using Seesaw to send updates and messages throughout the year as well as your teacher's virtual Open House. You will also find your child's emergency contact sheet. Please update this form and have your child bring it on the first day of school so we can update your information in our system. Another important document is your child's backpack tag. If you feel your child will have a hard time finding their classroom, then please use one of the tags, fill it out, and attach it to your child's backpack zipper. Please remember to visit our school's website or Facebook page for questions regarding our reopening plan and other important information. Thank you, and have a great night!
