During the first quarter of the 2001-2002 school year, Manhattan High School students participated in the Little Apple Job Shadowing program.

Job Shadowing is an educational activity dedicated to giving students an up-close look at the world of work. Job shadowing gives students a chance to "shadow" a workplace mentor throughout a day on the job. This shows students how the skills learned in school relate to the workplace.

Manhattan High School would like to congratulate the following students for participating in this opportunity. MHS would also like to thank the Manhattan area businesses that participated in this positive activity. The time and energy invested in our youth helps students prepare for their future career goals.
