Synopsis:
Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton, BIG FISH centers on Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman who lives life to its fullest… and then some!
Edward’s incredible, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him – most of all, his devoted wife Sandra. But their son Will, about to have a child of his own, is determined to find the truth behind his father’s epic tales. Overflowing with heart, humor and spectacular stagecraft, BIG FISH reminds us why we love going to the theatre – for an experience that’s richer, funnier and BIGGER than life itself.
Upcoming Grade 7: Career Day
Manor Middle is looking forward to hosting our Career Day on Friday, April 4, 2025. Our purpose is to expose students to as many careers and trades as possible. We want to help students explore different careers and connect their interests to exciting possibilities after high school.
On this day, our 8th grade students will have the opportunity to set up their own educational day of job shadowing in a field of interest.
Our 7th grade students will participate in a day of learning in the building with a Manufacturing Career Fair in partnership with MANTEC. We would also like to have community members join us for an additional career fair opportunity and speaker series. If you or a family member, friend, neighbor or colleague would like to participate, please take a moment to fill out this Google Form.
Once we have an idea of how many community participants we have, we will be able to better plan our day and provide participants with additional information in advance of the event. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Dr. Murray (shirley.murray@pennmanor.net) or Mrs. Detter (patricia.detter@pennmanor.net) directly.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration.

Manor Grade 8 Career Shadowing Day: April 4, 2025
As students progress through their middle school years, one of our key focuses is helping them explore their future careers. This process includes activities like completing online aptitude and interest assessments (such as Xello) to assist in understanding career paths and making informed decisions about their futures.
We are excited to offer all 8th grade students at Manor Middle the opportunity to participate in Career Shadowing, which will take place on Friday, April 4, 2025. This experience allows students to spend at least 5 hours shadowing a professional in a career they are interested in. It's a great chance for students to explore different fields and gain hands-on insights into potential future careers.
Please access the flyer for additional information HERE. We will also provide a paper copy to eighth grade students next week with additional copies in the office as needed.
