Manzano is a great school. It's great for kids who aren't involved in sports and are independent. I enjoy the school, don't go in for counseling, and get to know your teachers. It's not hard, it's dedication

Teachers are probably the worst of the bunch there at Manzano. If your child is not involved in sports then they just do not care about them.

My child is a senior. I had reservations about sending her to Manzano but she has done extremely well both socially and academically. She is Co-President of the senior class and I have no problem recommending Manzano as an excellent school. The administration is awesome!

Like the tee shirt says. New Mexico....cleaner than Old Mexico. Pretty much sums it up for Manzano High School. Less than average teachers. Sub standard counseling staff. Facilities average. All-in-all, pretty much on par with NM's next to last national rating.

Tough principal, but is always out circulating with the kids. A lot of very good teachers! Campus seemed to me to be intimidatingly sprawling, but the kids do well there. Very, very good school!
