During the early days of the pandemic I was finally able to figure out what the heck was going on, and why the Manor schools were trying to put my kid in gifted and talented. My son is very smart but we came from a financially well endowed public school where the kids were academically where they were supposed to be or above. By trying to put my kid in the GT program it was a form of kicking the can down the road. After we moved my kid had to play a little catch up academically and when asked said that he was thankful we had the resources to move, and that even though he had to undergo a process to get into MNTHS, he was worried about his peers unpreparedness to advance to a university setting. Manor has potential but as it stands there exists some discipline issues( I was once at the school and quickly locked in a room as an all out brawl broke out, I paid and lost to sticky fingers and the fact there are NO lockers multiple glue guns and various school supplies. In the years between 4-9th grade there were some excellent teachers and I tried to support them either with supplies or volunteering but they need help! The district we originally came from( different state) all teachers had a para professional in the room, and way more peripheral help. I am confident as new homes are built and real estate taxes are dispersed this district has the potential to be great.

The current principal Ms. Rincon is not very welcoming to the parents, staff, or students. She is always yelling at the kids in the morning and is yelling at teachers to get to their assigned posts. All teachers look worn out there and look like they don't care anymore. This school is a lot better when Mrs. Brown and Mr. Gongora were around. The Asst. Principal is very present , friendly, and you can tell staff rather talk to her then the principal. Hopeful this school turns around next year, I feel so bad for the teachers and staff under this principal.

I don't believe the teachers or staff truly care about all the students succeeding. They play favoritism and only help those they want to. There's no guidance for these children and in sports they only choose the kids that are really good leaving the other ones to sit out the entire games so what's the point in even joining a sport just to sit on the bench wasting parents money paying to see their child play when they never even get time to play. This school is a joke! No wonder it has a F rating.
