Manchester Elementary has released its First Nine Weeks honor roll, naming students from first through sixth grades who achieved All A’s or All A’s and B’s for the opening marking period. The People's Defender published the full lists on November 8, 2025, making the recognition available to families across Adams County and preserving an official local record of student academic performance.
The published lists break out honors by grade and by category. The First Grade All A’s list in the posting includes Adalind Akers, Emily Campbell, Casen Gullett, Elizabeth McGowan, Kolby O’Hearn, Emory Polley, Kelly Collins, Skylar Dray, Wyatt Fox, Layla Perkins, Addalynn Scott, Paisley Stewart, Callie Combs, Dominic Doyen, and Wyatt Patton. The First Grade All A’s and B’s roster includes Jaidelyn Bayless, Sophia Wilson, and Jaxen McCoy among other students. The People's Defender posting continues with full honor roll lists for second through sixth grades.
Publicizing honor rolls serves multiple local purposes. For parents and caregivers it provides verification of student progress and a tangible way to celebrate achievement. For teachers and school administrators it offers community visibility for classroom outcomes and can motivate ongoing academic efforts. For the broader public it creates transparency around school recognition practices and gives neighbors a snapshot of early year academic performance at a neighborhood elementary school.
The timing of the release, covering the first nine weeks of the academic year, establishes an early benchmark that families can use when planning support and enrichment for students. While honor rolls are not the sole indicator of educational quality, they are a routine measure of classroom achievement and can influence parent engagement, after school participation, and conversations about instructional priorities within the district.
This local reporting also underscores the role of community journalism in amplifying school communications. By posting the honor roll on a community news platform, Manchester Elementary and the People's Defender extend recognition beyond classroom walls, allowing relatives and community members who may not have direct contact with the school to acknowledge student efforts.
Residents seeking the complete lists for all grades are directed to the People's Defender posting dated November 8, 2025, which contains the full names and breakdowns for first through sixth grade honor rolls. As the year progresses, the school and community will have additional opportunities to track academic trends and to support students through subsequent reporting periods.
