Good afternoon. I sent out a message yesterday evening but I wanted to share a portion of the message here on our website and Facebook pages in the event of a school closing due to inclement weather. In the event we need to close schools due to inclement weather, we will do our best to contact you as early as possible. We will always try to contact you the day/night before but if not, then we will notify you before 6:00am. The methods of communication will include; text messaging, email notification, posting an announcement on Manhattan 114 Webpage and Facebook, and notification on the Emergency Closing Center which includes announcements on radio such as WJOL and the local television stations.

We mixed extra holiday spirit into our school pride assembly today. We celebrated our family of the month, enjoyed music from our 2nd graders, sang along to holiday classics, and both staff and students made attempts at the Ms. Book's possible shot. Have a wonderful break, Wilson Creek!

Incredible day of dodgeball at THE MAC. Our last season as a 3rd, 4th, & 5th grade bunch. Congrats to 3rd-Zaleski; 4th-Gilbert; & 5th-Kijewski for winning the grade level championships. Our 18th Annual Holiday Tourney Grand Champion this year goes to 5th-Bucz. They absolutely came out of nowhere and went on a very impressive win streak.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Season. Great day Anna Mac!
