I had a phenomenal time while at Manheim Central HighSchool. It is a school that challenged and grows you, while also being accepting. The sports program was great and my classmates were awesome. The only change I would make is a better lunch system.

Best part is the very few teachers that are aspiring in terms of watching them teach their passions but others are just there because it's their job. Worst part is the school lacks the ability to support all their students in terms of college readiness, course selection process, and the lack of student support for mental health/personal issues,etc.

I love the atmosphere found here in Manheim. It is very safe and the academics are rewarding. It would be nice to see air conditioning there in the future because with out it, it can get very hot at the end of summer.

Great athletic team and has a variety of interesting extracurricular activities, but I would not say this school challenges and encourages students to do well - academically, which is most important. Not impressed. Would not recommend.
