I love that Manatee is a K-8 for convenience of keeping my kids together longer and less transitions to other schools. I like that it has an elementary side and a middle school side with little crossover especially with younger kids. The administration is very good at getting back with parents to address concerns. My kids are challenged and supported by loving/caring staff.
