Welcome

Welcome to Manito
 
On behalf of all Employees, I’d like to welcome you to Manito. Manito was created over three decades ago out of a desire to help children and families in our communities.  Our goals today remain largely the same, a passion for providing excellent services to individuals of all ages to enhance their lives.  We believe in the power of collaboration to create positive changes and supporting the strengths of all those we serve.  We also believe that being the best at what we do is not an option, but a never ending pursuit of learning, innovation, and staying connected to the needs of clientele, customers and the community.
 
We hope you find our website to be both helpful and informative.  Please explore all of our different services and ways that we can serve you.  If you have questions, please contact any of our individual programs, our Administrative Office, or email me directly at: drbob@manitoway.com.   

 

Thank you.

 

Dr. Bob Whitmore

  • Welcome back Koran Dunbar

    On May 19, 2012 the Franklin County Manito programs will hold their annual Graduation Banquet to honor our graduating seniors. This year’s special guest will be a 2000 graduate of the Manito Alternative High School, Koran Dunbar. Koran was the first recipient of the Mark McNairn Memorial Scholarship, which is offered to Manito students who are going on after graduation to attend a college or technical school. This scholarship was created by the family of Mark McNairn, a former Manito employee, who passed away in 2002. Koran has been busy since graduation. His Facebook page describes him as, “…an American actor, director, screenwriter, and comedian”. He has acted in TV, Film, Stage, and done stand-up comedy. “His recent work is Greencastle, where Dunbar is the writer, director, and lead actor”. His film Greencastle was shot on location in Greencastle and recently held a sold out, red carpet premier at the Maryland Theatre in Hagerstown Md.
