Welcome to the new Manual. We are three schools under one roof right now. There are: 7th /8th grade Preparatory Academy, 9th Grade Success Academy, and grades 10-12! We are changing our school in stages. There will be more changes to come. We have a great staff who love the students and understands what it will take to improve student achievement for each student. We want you to know that we appreciate your support.

We all know that education is the key to success. Our goal is that your children will graduate from Manual. I know that many of you are very busy so we will give you many different ways to become involved. Your most important support is that your children are at school every day and on time. A progress report will be mailed home, to your attention, each month. The first school bell rings at 7:40 each morning and school ends at 3:25. We will be holding everyone accountable. We will provide a lot of support to students. Seniors who are on track to graduate will be dismissed at 2:25. They must be and stay on track to graduate! If we all do a little, we will accomplish a lot! I can be reached at either (309) 672-6605 or sharon.kherat@psd150.org.
