GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

In my experience, Manvel High School has its pros and cons. The choices of classes are great. The teachers of higher education classes are amazing in my experience. The teachers of base-level classes are not the best. They are laid back but most do not try to connect with the students. Teachers need to take control of their class and not give up on helping the struggling students.

i would like to see a change in the curriculum for. getting us ready for the "real world" to teach us about finances, banking, how to apply for jobs, or even what kind of college degree you want to set yourself up for at the beginning of highschool rather than the end.

I transferred to this school for my senior year snd it has been completely different than my old school. I love the range of classes you can take not to mention art programs and technology programs. My teachers are super friendly and nice even though they have to deal with so many kids a day. The staff are friendly and really helpful when you need anything. I love the library it has a huge range of books for students in any grade. The work is also rigorous but helpful and I think I might miss this school when i graduate.

Ever since the leadership change in 2019-2020, this school has become extremely toxic. New leaders are hostile to staff, creating a horrible working environment.Do not apply to work here or send your kid here, as you will see a huge turnover rate at the end of the year. Teachers are getting fed up w...

Academics seem to be undervalued to sports. I have heard from fellow students about a drug trade going on. Every passing period you will see at least 3-5 couples kissing and exhibiting publicly inappropriate behavior. Many of the students live far away from the school and have to commute 20-30 from...
