Hello Manual Families,
It was an incredible College and Career Readiness Week this week with students visiting the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, CSU-Pueblo and the University of Denver. Our students also engaged with many other university and scholarship representatives and heard from professionals in the workforce in the fields of medicine, law, activism and numerous vocational jobs. It was a great week of learning and growing for our students.
Shout Outs and Celebrations:
Manual’s Boys Soccer Team made it to the State Playoffs again this year but fell to Middle Park 2 – 0 in the first round of the playoffs on Friday night.
85% of our students took the PSAT/SAT Practice Test #1 on Wednesday and worked incredibly hard on that test.
Over 100 Manual students made Honor Roll after Quarter 1, each having a GPA of over 3.3. Congrats T-Bolts.

Preparing for Inclement Weather: As we get into the winter be reminded that, on snowy days, DPS may call a two-hour delayed start or cancel school. As soon as I know the decision by DPS I will communicate to staff via email and to parents via email and text. Please see the inclement weather schedule on page two of this document.
