**UNIQUE LEARNERS**
Our society, as exemplified by our own beloved City of Manchester, is a true melting pot. We are made up of all types from a myriad of cultures, origins, skills & abilities. Our public schools boast some of the best examples. Among our wide spectrum of individual students, there are some who exhibit an inexplicable, heightened ability in certain particular subjects, often math, or music, or the arts. This month’s Art on the Wall @ City Hall showcases the artwork of (4) four such exceptionally gifted students, 3 of whom are current students in our MSD SAU37, the 4th having recently relocated to the midwest, having certainly left his mark, both personally and artistically. Enjoy their wonderful artwork!
