LWHS/MM Protectthe Pack -FamiliesOctober Update, 10/27/25

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Can you believe that we are nearing the end of October and 1st quarter already? You can definitely feel the fall crisp weather in the air. A shout out to Lincoln O'Brien and Jake Timm for being our DJ's in the house for our Homecoming and upcoming Middle School Neon Dance! We truly appreciate rockin' it for our students. Looking into the next few months, we are gearing up to kick off winter sports and our traditional Veterans Day Assembly is coming up. More information will be shared closer to the events.


Take care,

Michelle Johnson, Little Wolf High/Manawa Middle Principal

LWHS/MM's homeroom, now called Alpha Hour (period 6) has been revamped to incorporate responsive scheduling Flex. The purpose of this positive change are the following:

1. Provide students who are struggling or are failing a course to receive academic restoration directly from their teachers and/or a space and place for students to proactively review notes, study for upcoming assessments, and collaborate on projects.

2. Offer voice and choice for students to have opportunities to engage in co-curricular activities featuring clubs, courses on life skills, open gym, and many other selections.
