NISKAYUNA, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- The Niskayuna Fire Department held a response training Monday so firefighters and service dogs could get used to one another. The training is called Operation at Ease.Fire officials said this allows firefighters to simulate calls that include a service dog in the home and how to properly handle it.

Denver students displaced by Manual High School’s closure in 2006 get their long-awaited diplomas — and an apology

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 10:41:43 GMT

Shanita Lewis always hoped to receive a diploma from Denver’s Manual High School and, on Monday evening, it finally happened — more than a decade after the school temporarily closed and displaced hundreds of students. Lewis was one of 11 former Manual High students to receive honorary diplomas from Denver Public Schools during a meeting of the Board of Education. “It mattered that our school closed,” said Lewis, who was a freshman when Manual closed in 2006. She graduated from George Washington High School in 2009. “All these years later, it still has shaped and affected the lives of so many young adults.” The effort to have DPS award Manual High diplomas to any student affected by the closure has been underway at the district for at least a year. On Monday, DPS turned part of the evening’s school board meeting into a mini-graduation ceremony to honor former Manual students. Former Manual students, dressed in graduation caps, “walked” across a room at D...
