Manchester Proud

We began as an ad-hoc gathering of local business and education leaders, wanting to better understand Manchester’s public schools and how we might partner with others to create opportunities for their improvement. Today, Manchester Proud has become a community movement, united by our pride in Manchester and our shared commitment to the success of every student, and therefore, our entire community. Our community-based approach brings together families, students, educators, and community members to shape and drive a collaborative, strategic planning process. Together, we will define priorities for student and family success and build in the accountability needed for effective implementation. Manchester Proud has no affiliations, political or otherwise. We are empowered by our fundamental belief in the strength of working together, equitably, inclusively, and collaboratively. Our sole agenda is to build a stronger Manchester through the excellence of our public schools, and we believe that NOW is the time to act!
