Prospective Families
Welcome to the Joseph P. Manning Elementary School!
We begin each day with a morning pledge in front of the building, setting our intentions to do our best and work together before entering school for the day.
Our instructional focus is on higher order thinking skills with an inclusion program that supports success for all of our children. Our small size allows us to develop meaningful relationships with students so that we can individualize our instructional strategies and students’ social development. We are supported by an active Parent Council and powerful partnerships with the Responsive Classroom, Playworks, and the Faulkner Hospital, among others. Students are offered science, library, art, physical education, and music each week.
School hours: 9:30 to 4:10 PM
