Unity Day 2025 at Manson Middle & High School was a huge success yesterday! 🧡
Thanks to our 33 incredible Manson Hope Squaders, students came together to celebrate kindness, inclusion, and hope.
Lunch activities included a rubber duck hunt, ping pong hoop challenge, bracelet making, and an interactive “Notes of Hope” poster.
During Strong Time, Hope Squad leaders guided powerful conversations about bullying prevention and shared tools and resources for how to stand up and support one another.
What an amazing day filled with learning, laughter, and connection. Let’s keep spreading kindness, Manson! 💙🛟

Recently, Manson teacher Lauren Griffith had a chance to catch up with Trojan alumni Bethzy and Lexi from the class of 2025, who are currently enjoying their first semester at Washington State University.
Earlier this month, a handful of recent grads met up with our Gear Up group during their campus tour of WSU. It was a great moment to reconnect, share college experiences, and inspire future Cougs!

🔥 Fire Prevention Week at Manson Elementary!
Fire Prevention Week started today with hands-on fire safety lessons for our K–5 students! Volunteer Firefighter Wayne led the training, teaching students how to call 911, why it’s important to know their home address, and how to safely get out of their house if there’s a fire.
One of the most exciting moments was seeing our very own Manson High School Junior Firefighters, Mac and Austin, suit up in full turnout gear — including their oxygen tanks! 🚒 Students learned that while a firefighter in full gear might sound like Darth Vader, they can be easily identified by their yellow helmets and flashlights.
We are so grateful for our partnership with Manson Fire and their dedication to helping our students learn these lifesaving skills. 💙🔥

Our 5th graders had a blast during their recent Apple Tree music activity! 🎵
Split into three instrument groups, students practiced keeping a steady beat, played 8th note patterns on xylophones, and worked on proper mallet grip and drum techniques — all while collaborating with partners. A fun and rhythmic way to review a variety of instruments!
