Anna Mac's first 3rd grader to complete Mrs. Barr's 40 Book Challenge. WayI to go Jonathon!!

MJHS Athletics were out in full force last week with boys’ basketball & cheerleading hosting their last home game and wrestling hosting a meet at Anna Mac. Way to represent, Demons!!

Thank you Jackie OHara and the Manhattan Fire Dept and Will County Sheriff Deputy Jeff Jerz for facilitating the Stop The Bleed training for Anna Mac staff today. Side note...Deputy Jerz is also an active shooter / first responder trainer and was exceptionally impressed with our method across the district for how we secure our doors during a time of crisis to protect our students. That was very encouraging to hear. Thank you everyone.

Anna Mac ended the week with mid trimester trivia and minute to win it activities. The Chicago Bulls won it all, earning a pizza party and mystery prize. Go BULLS!

Anna Mac was treated to an excellent Black History presentation by the Bright Star Company called Black History: Hero's, Solidiers, & Spies.

Families of 8th Grade Students: GRADUATION PICTURES WILL BE ON FEBRUARY 7 (2:45-6:25) A SIGN-UP FOR APPOINTMENTS WILL GO OUT LATE NEXT WEEK - STAY TUNED!

Anna Mac had some educators from France and England visit with us on Wednesday. Thank you Ms Lamont & Book Bag Tours for making our school a stop on their trip to the states.

More great work by our 4th grade STREAM classes. This activity involved coding and incorporating a variety of math concepts.

The artwork displayed at our fine arts nights shows the hard work of our 2nd graders and Mrs. Davis. From candles to lights, so much shining light!

Our 2nd graders and Mrs. Bloom shined so much light through the music and sounds of our fine arts nights this week!

It might be cold outside but it’s nice and cozy inside MJHS! It’s flannel season for our Manhattan Demons. Students and staff wore their favorite flannel today to celebrate our last in person learning day before winter break!

Mrs. Coffey’s class teamed up with Mrs. Pedziwater once again to put on a “winterful” ❄️❄️☃️ holiday music program today! The only way to spread holiday cheer, is singing loud for all to hear! 🎶 Thank you to all the students, staff, and families who make special events like this happen for our MJHS students!

Congrats to Drake Prasun in Ms. Lamont’s 5th grade class for already completing the 40 Book Challenge! Keep reading and inspiring others! Happy Holidays.
