Morris-Hardeman says that the biggest needs are currently larger backpacks for high school students, 3-hole folders without prongs, 3-ring binders that are either 1.5 to 2 inches and black dry erase markers.

The school district will also be hosting an open house at Manhattan High School on August 5th starting at 10 am.
