Superintendent Rusty Ragon, accompanied by Assistant Principal Vince Perillo, Athletic Director Gina Burlison, and site Superintendent Jeff Dvork, recently conducted a tour of the new MJHS building. During the tour, they had the pleasure of meeting Chad Stoner, a Manhattan local who is contributing to the project as a skilled carpenter/foreman. Chad's personal story is truly inspiring as he resides in the area and is now fulfilling a successful career in construction right here in Manhattan. This tour was a reflection of the dedicated efforts of everyone involved in making this project a reality. We're thrilled about the new MJHS and all the possibilities it holds!







Our 2nd graders enjoyed a visit from the Manhattan Fire Department for Fire Safety Month. Exploring the truck and ambulance is always a highlight. Today's visit was even more exciting because one of the firefighters attended Wilson Creek when it opened!

Congratulations to September's Students of the Month at MJHS. These students were selected by staff members for displaying preparedness, our asset of the month! We are thankful for all our students that show Demon P.R.I.D.E.!


Earlier this week, MJHS held its first Small Group House Meeting, pairing up students from grades 6-8 with a staff advisor! During our first meeting, students worked on figuring out how we are all connected as people! Great work, Demons!
