I love everything about Manual High School. Manual High School has come a long way from what it was our freshman year. I loved it then and I still love it now. The teachers care, the sports are fantastic, and the school spirit is amazing.

We don't have the best looking facilities in the world, but we do have descent facilities that are safe and are managed nicely. The computer lab and library always helps students who don't have computers to have a place to get their work done. The gyms are great to work out in and always open for students to be active.

I like the way this school goes above and beyond the call of duty. The teachers are very caring. The only concern I have is the culture shock, attitude, and disrespect my children experience around a lot of the students.
