Manor Middle School

Posted October 16, 2008

Honestly, I think this school has done well for my daughter. My daughter has gone from 6th grade and is presently in her 8th grade year at Manor. I think I may be lucky because my daughter does relatively well on her own, but she has stated that the teacher are all enjoyable and are good at teaching. From her perspective, it's a decent school. There are a lot of bullies there and kids with behavioral problems but that is at every school, not just Manor. And those kids deserve a chance too, and they need guidance from teachers and parents. The only problems I've had with Manor are: some of their classes do not have enough books for students. My daughter has learned well and done well. I am not sure how it is for students who struggle to pass though, and how much help they get.

I was a student at Manor, I was there for all my 3 years of middle school, and I have to say with our last principle we did get away with alot of things than with the current principle. In my opinion most of the teachers are so focused on trying to get our TAKS score up that they forget to make sure we actually understand the material. They teach us and then send us home with homework that makes our parents have to reteach the whole subject. Manor's new principle is strict and partly because Manor students don't understand when enough is enough and it's not all the students, but my pint is if you constanly take away our privilages then you should expect rebellion.

The teachers and principles at this school are involved as long as the parent is concerned. The biggest downfall is that to much of the teachers time is spent on discipline and rule enforcement not instruction. TAKS seems to be the primary goal with little time spent on anything else.

I am currently a student at Manor. Manor isn't that bad and the only reason a kid might be in ISS often or failing a class is because they aren't trying. I take all Pre-AP classes and I have only one B and the rest are A's. The teachers are okay but some don't seemed qualified. The electives are ok. The school is cheap though by not having the supplies needed to have proper learning.
