Starting next week, residents will have a chance to share their thoughts on potential future reuse of parts of the Manhattan High School East Campus building.
Thanks to a grant from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas, the Institute for Civil Discourse and Democracy (ICDD) at Kansas State is facilitiating community conversations for the Manhattan-Ogden School District regarding future plans. The building, at 901 Poyntz Ave., is being considered for a possible central location for the nonprofit Common Table, which provides free meals to those in need in the Manhattan area.

In-person and online meetings will take place in person Jan. 25 from 7 to 9 p.m. and online Jan. 29 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Questions about the community need and how it could be envisioned will be done in small groups and documented and summarized for the second round of conversations planned in mid-February.
