Virtual Spirit Week! -- Week of March 30th - April 3rd

Mann Teacher Parade

A Mann Staff Parade will take place this Wednesday, April 1st  beginning at 3:00 p.m. Thank you to Amy Mariani for bringing this great idea to our school so we can connect with our students by driving down their streets.

We will begin at the corner of Kenilworth and Division by the playground. Staff members in their cars will make their way up and down the North/South streets of Mann students. Our route will begin on the west side of Mann's boundaries and move across to the East side. We will do our best to drive down as many streets as we can.

While this is a parade, it only will include staff in their cars, and please keep safety at the forefront. We ask that you stay inside your houses or stand right out front as a family, but keeping six feet away from others; not congregating with neighbors. We did get permission from the Village of Oak Park and are looking forward to our Mann Staff Parade to wave to our students who we miss dearly.
