MANCHESTER – If your graduating senior is planning to enter military service or a military academy after graduation, we want to hear from you. We will be celebrating our 2024 Manchester School District high school graduates who are entering military service in a special ceremony later this month.

The ceremony is set for Wednesday, May 29, at 6 p.m. at the National Guard Armory at 1059 Canal Street in Manchester.

This event is an opportunity for these students to stand and be recognized for their commitment to serve their country. Families and friends are invited to join us for the event, which will include several speakers and a recognition for each graduate.

If your student is entering military service or joining a military academy, please send an email to atoland@mansd.org by Friday, May 17, to ensure we can celebrate them.
