The MANS Difference

Our alumni reflect their experience by building our community

Alumni choose MANS for their children

Graduate Krista Abt went from Kindergarten to Grade 12 at MANS with a perfect attendance record. Krista’s daughter, Everley, is following in her footsteps.

Alumni give back to MANS and the wider Maskwacis community

Alumnus Joshua Saddleback raised the bar on athletic involvement and fitness at MANS. Volunteering as a traditional dance teacher, helping raise funds for an athletic field, and major involvement in creating an on-campus weight room for students are some of the reasons students look up to him.
